Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They?
Ghasley is correct; the cabinets are sourced in China.

Steve,I remember reading here a couple years ago that folks were anticipating your new preamp design - can't wait to hear how it turns out!

LOL, Aud!! :D

Nyran,Kris anticipated mid to late September, although it could get pushed back depending on how long the current jobs take. Kris did say the ARC-2 was a more significant upgrade than the ARC-1, but I figured I'd avoid future shipping and labor co... 
Holy Crap What have I done?
Dbld,The XM44 is certainly a higher-quality unit. I'm not dissing the XM9, because it's great for what it does, but after more listening in my new hom I'm convinced I just can't get my speakers to sound as open and airy with it in their line. 
Rel Strata III versus Rel Britannia B3
Artman,When you say "color" do you mean unfaithful reproduction (as the term is often used here) or do you mean more vivid and textured?I'm not trying to be an arse - I'm doing lots of research on RELs and the Velodyne DD series, and one of the th... 
Holy Crap What have I done?
Dbld,I will have to look and see which XO module I installed. I'm pretty sure it was the 85Hz. I never went back to running my mains through the high pass. I'm fairly convinced I could tweak the controls all day long and it just wouldn't be the sa... 
Holy Crap What have I done?
Dbld,I liked the system well enough as it was in my last post to leave it alone. Unfortunately, my new house in Kansas has all-shhetrock walls, which are presenting some acoustic issues that I need to figure out how to address. I've read enough ne... 
Replacement Fuse's - What are my options ????
For those interested, Steve listened to both the Hi-Fi Tuning and IsoClean fuses in his home system. I don't feel at liberty to publish what he sent me, but he may be willing to share his thoughts with owners of his equipment if you call or email ...

Good reading, thanks! 
Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They?
Aktchi, you're presenting a rock-solid list of speakers, IMHO. I've not heard the Zu (something about a single-driver speaker scares me despite the benefit of not having a crossover) or the Daedelus (of which I'd never heard before your post.) Jim... 
Replacement Fuse's - What are my options ????
Stehno,I'm curretnly a military attorney specializing (as best you can in the military) in criminal law. Before getting called to active duty I practiced commercial and tort litigation in Houston.That sure is strange about the fuse; maybe the $50 ...

nOrh is a company in Thailand (www.norh.com). The nOrhs feature top of the line Scanspeak drivers and a very rigid marble (or synthetic marble, depending on the model) cabinet, but the stock crossover for their best models aren't very well-designe... 
Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They?
A couple of people have asked me about the Sasons in addition to and/or compared to the Adagios. Below is a copy-and-paste of an email I sent to someone this morning. I'm sure I'll get flamed for my assertion that the Sason "might be the best spea... 
Replacement Fuse's - What are my options ????
Stehno,I inquired about the 5x20mm fuses specifically; maybe your price sheet reflects a 1.25" fuse. That's about the only explanation I can come up with.
