| Level mismatch in speakers when using tube amp Well I procrastinated but I did end up getting in touch with Polk last week about the level imbalance. After some back and forth and a little further testing it was determined the crossover was not functioning probably. Keep in mind I’m not the or... | |
| Tell us about your KT150 experience I have a Primaluna Dialogue Premium HP amp and have used EL34’s, 7581’s, and last week installed KT150’s. I have not tried the KT120. I totally agree with everyone’s comments about the 7581. Fantastic tube for 30 bucks. Deeper and tighter than the... | |

With the tube amp one speaker is lower level. Again, all drivers are playing, just at a lower level than the other ... | |

| Axpona reviewers perceptions and reality Bubba12The Atohms were my favorite reasonably priced speakers at the show. I went to that room 3 times as well. GT1’s or GT2’s will be my next speakers. | |
| MORE Esoteric problems Tomcy6When talking to the representative he mentioned “the x series players from 11 or 12 years ago.” I didn’t enquirer further to the specific models beyond what he mentioned. I got kind of sidetracked at that point as he was describing the proce... | |
