Borresen X3 measurements
Y’all are fretting a bit much... If i wanted a flat line just to please Amir/Erin, i could have just diy’d/built out a GR Research NX-otica or NX-Extreme on the cheap......and lived with over the counter lower quality drivers. It would sound fi... 
why is it such a PIA to post a bloody photo here ? this platform is cranky as hell !
Right click an image on the web, copy "image address" Paste it into the image url.   If it is your own image, stick it on imgur.com or some other image hosting site. Copy "image address’, do the same as above.  
New Synergistic Master Fuse
If interested, I have a fuse brand called "Quantum Deepalicious". Fuses start at 20k a piece and goes up to 120k per fuse. You get what you paid for with my fuses. P.S. I will accept Accuphase, Esoteric, Gryphon, Aavik and Von Schweikert produc... 
Receiver Too Weak?
The floor speakers are bi-amped and the setup for it in the receiver settings is done. Should I undo that? If I understand correctly that would reduce the power which will make them perform worse, but maybe the balance will be better until I can ... 
New room needs new speakers, I need your help
I am looking for a pair of speakers that will cost me a maximum of 5K on the used market. I am very sensitive to fatiguing treble, I don't look for absolute treble clarity, I love an easy listening speaker. Try the Musician Knight...(around 2k... 
Gustard R26 vs hi end streamer
@deep_333  I am not sure if you actually own Linton or had given it a fair trial.  The trerrific soundstage, flat response (see below) and nimble bass are the three main reasons I kept them for a good two years and might be many more years to co... 
Gustard R26 vs hi end streamer
Wharfdale Linton & Burchardt S400 mkII), both have quiet background, sound transparent, good SS, decent bass BUT R26 does not outperform my $400 MXN10’s DAC. a) Sell Linton, not resolving enough...Move up to the Elysian b) Treat your room,... 
Reliability - what’s your experience been?
The highest reliability electronics tend to come out of the island nation called Japan....which is what i tend to stick with. If i buy stuff that gets into the high end price bracket, i play it safe with such Japanese things. I buy some cheaper A... 
My wife weighed in…she wants piano white tower/bookshelf
@aj523 agree about the Fleetwood Deville speakers. Beautiful to look at but VERY limited low end. For the $$ you can do better IMO. Deville sounds like a 2k speaker or worse (at the most). How on earth is this lackluster box priced at 20k? (Pr... 
Seeking to Upgrade Subwoofer from SVS SB2000
@deep_333 +1 The OP can buy two more SB-1000 subs and place them behind him as you suggest. This is the sub swarm concept. Spending $2K is a waste of money when the OP already has a capable pair of subs. A swarm of four or six subs will give smoo... 
My wife weighed in…she wants piano white tower/bookshelf
Get a pair of Borresen X6 in "a gorgeous piano white". Slim and neat looking speaker that sounds like a million bucks. Before you knew it...she might ask you to tone up at the gym and become a gorgeous boy to keep up with her gorgeous speaker.

Seeking to Upgrade Subwoofer from SVS SB2000
My upgrade sub budget for 2 subs are $1000.00 total. The Martin Logan is adjusted properly and I find the bass a bit weak. The current 2 subs help, but I would like to do better. Budget is too weak for a sub upgrade. You can’t do any better tha... 
Receiver Too Weak?
On second thought, yamaha receivers do offer some features like dialog level, dialog lift (if your center channel has suboptimal placement), etc after you get into their Aventage line. Hence, the minimum you should get is the Yamaha RX-A4A Aventag... 
Receiver Too Weak?
Your receiver is low end and does not come with pre-outs for the fronts/center so you can run them to a powerful external amplifier.   What is your budget? Get a processor with pre-outs (price can go up quickly). Here is some affordable stuff ...
