| New ASR Basis Exclusive 2010 Not a problem, I have a set of 9's also. The KW Monoblock's are probably a little on the cool side so the combination of the KW's and the 20T's is just right for me. Your probably right on the components mix. I run the 9's with a Chord CPA 3300 in... | |
| New ASR Basis Exclusive 2010 I'm not sure I'd call the 20T's warm but I'll try and not start an argument. That said I'd also never call the Basis Exclusive solid state sounding. While it's solid state it's most notable characteristic is it's neutrality, tight bass and pristin... | |
| Best Arm for Raven One? I use a Dynavector 507 MKII on my Raven AC3 and it's a perfect compliment to the XV-1s cartridge. It was highly recommended by Jeff at HighWater Sound. | |
| New ASR Basis Exclusive 2010 The new unit has resistance settings for both balanced channels. Not to be confused with left and right channel but both positive and inverse signals on the balanced cable. Since I use balanced interconnects this was a big plus. You can now also g... | |
| New ASR Basis Exclusive 2010 5 hours later and here are my initial impressions:More extended top to bottom. Actually dialed my 20T's bass back to the neutral position. No other cartridge, table, cable or loading changes from my previous 2008 gold board edition. More air witho... | |
| New EMM Labs DAC 2 or Accustic Arts Ref Tube DAC Thanks, feedback is a bit light this weekend. I'm leaning towards the Accustic Arts Tube DAC-II.. | |
| EMM Labs DAC2 I'm actually surprised. No comments at all.How about recommended alternatives?Thanks | |
| Is two Subs better than One? Absolutely yes. Running two SW-12s with a set of Aerial 20T's and it helps even out the base response of the overall room. One sub is in a corner boundary so it's turned down and has a different crossover versus the sub that sits in the middle of ... | |
| Wilson Maxx2 or Aerial 20T Thanks for the input. I'm running MF KW Monoblocks with a KWP preamp. Clean controlled power is not a problem. I have a odd room actually 4 interconnected rooms with the main living room having a 25 foot ceiling. Think of several rooms rooms which... | |
| Wilson Maxx2 or Aerial 20T I added 2 SW-12s to the mix. Crossed them over at 35 hz and will stick with this configuration for now. Thanks for all of the input. It does fill out the bottom end nicely. Maybe a super tweeter to top it off. Muirta?? or Townshend?? | |
| Wilson Maxx2 or Aerial 20T Interesting take on the issue. I don't drive a Ferrari but I do drive a 997 C4S. Will that do? | |
| Wilson Maxx2 or Aerial 20T No other opinions, WOW. Must have been a slow night. | |
| Wilson Maxx2 or Aerial 20T A little more bottom end. A little better vertical high end dispersion. Maybe a little stronger more forward midrange. In the sweet spot they are wonderful. | |
| Does it really get any better than the Raven AC ?? Id be interested in more detail around competing tables. Transrotor what, model, arm, cartridge???? Still playing aroind with mat vs. no mat. Mystic mat versus Millenium mat etc. | |
| Running Springs Haley or Duke Power Conditioners Thanks for your very detailed response. I'll probably go with a dedicated Duke for each Amp, Musical Fidelity KW's.I'm a little concerned that it will be a little bright since the KW's are very revealing. I'm still playing with everything from int... |
