Speaker/ Room Measurement and DSP
You can't go wrong with the Dirac Live.  I do not have minidsp, but I do have Dirac Live on my computer server.  Not only will it do a great job taming the bumps and suck outs across the audio band, it will phase align every driver in your system.... 
Tekton Double Impacts
Can someone explain how the tweeter configuration in Tekton speakers works?  When I put my ear close to each tweeter it's hard to tell whether or not there is sound emanating from that particular driver as they are so close to the other tweeters. ...

I have used the 2.7s with and without subs and have come to the conclusion in my smallish room they are not needed. I have the speakers positioned on a long wall with about 2' between the wall and the front baffle in a 16 x 12 room that opens to ...

@sbayne   Having listened to the 2.7s about three weeks now, their characteristics are becoming evident. But, before I get to how the speakers sound I want to mention a couple of things that happened after I got the Enzo 2.7s.  The first afternoon...

As a percentage of total spending, I think you under spent on loudspeakers and room acoustics.  From my experience sound quality is primarily about two things.  Loudspeakers and the room in which they are played. 
Usher DMD tweeter upgrade: worth it?
@hukkfinn Yes.  I have a pair of Be tweeters taken from my Dancer Mini Ones.  They are the exact tweeter used in the original Mini Twos.  I will PM you to discuss farther.

I listen to a lot of rock music at fairly loud SPLs.  The 2.7s are slightly more sensitive and the 8" drivers should offer more impact in the lower mid/upper bass region.  Also the the tweeter in the 40.5" tall Enzos is at perfect ear level in my ...

Thanks for the info pawsman but I opted for the Enzo 2.7s instead.  They should ship any day now.  I'm glad you're enjoying the IMs. 
After a (weeks) worth of listening...

Correct way to attach speaker wires... Wait, what!!!
Bare copper against bare copper (two different pieces of metal under physical contact) does not really transfer higher frequencies as well. This is where plating increases the ability for high frequencies to jump from one piece to another (i....
