I have a similiar situation: I was using the stock jumpers that came with my Alon Petites but switched to a double run of older AudioQuest Type 6 wire. The sound is much clearer, except that I can not get a focused sound stage. I have experimented with the phasing of the high and low inputs, but it just gets worse. There is a hole in the middle of the soundstage (nothing is centered). Any ideas???? Please help!!!
