I got my Gallo Ref3's today

We had company so I could not explore too much. Got em hooked up to my NAD S100/S200. Wow, I have to turn em up past 11:30! I ain't never turned speakers up that high (AUDES Blues and Polk RT35's I think). At first they sounded a bit dark. Too laid back upstairs. After about an hour the high end started to open up. I listened with and without my REL Storm III. Fraid to say the soundstage was much deeper without it. Too bad old buddy. Huge soundstage. Wall to wall sound. And deep. But still a bit laid back for my tastes. Kinda wish they still included the tweeter switch. Would switch it to high. My purist S100 preamp doesn't even have a balance pot let alone a treble control! Gonna leave it on all night and tomorrow day.

It would be VERY easy to break the switches lifting the grills off. The grills have a cross member that could easily catch the switch and whack it right off. It's a cheesy little switch.

By the way, I wouldn't recommend throwing a blanket over the speakers for any extended period while they're playing loud. Voice coils dissipate heat.
