| Joule-Electra VZN OTL Users- I Need advice! @jim2 Jim- appreciate you trying to help. I guess i did not see your message.

| What is the most dramatic way of increasing a speaker's Bass and Low mid? @rauliruegas there is something about them that i really love very much. I will play around with my other components and room a bit more before changing them. | |
| Going to have a dedicated line installed- What should i know to ask for? This is a commercial HUGE building in Brooklyn. Aside form street power there is a lot going on in the building itself... It is my thinking that a dedicated line with proper ground would still be beneficial. He is charging me $300 per line... Not ... | |

| What is the most dramatic way of increasing a speaker's Bass and Low mid? The more i listen the more i realize that there is a specific volume and sweet spot of sitting where they sound just unbelievable, above that volume they begin to sound harsh to my ears. Same for leaving the sweet spot.Also they just want to play ... | |
| What is the most dramatic way of increasing a speaker's Bass and Low mid? Well they do according to Steteophile measurements but i have no issue with that area as i have a sub. My issue is low mids and higher bass. The “body”, not the “Floor”... | |
| What is the most dramatic way of increasing a speaker's Bass and Low mid? Hey Raul, tone is much much better. Overall warmth that i was after is much closer to the mark.

| Clean Power without the drawbacks of Conditioning Filtering. Advice? Im not suffering from noise really. Just want to know that my power strip that is supposed to distribute power to my system about 7-8ft. from the wall outlet is not degrading and is as good (or bad) as the wall socket itself. | |

Im trying to find out what would deliver the wall power with no change/loss to my System's area. Pretty simple really...Thanks | |
| What is the most dramatic way of increasing a speaker's Bass and Low mid? @rauliruegas:The Joule amps totally changed the tonal balance and clarity in all freqs. So for now i am getting used to that. Its not to say the Merlins are not seemingly bright speakers, I say seemingly because i think it is a perception built on... |
