My Amp is good but probably the weak point
I get it, I’m looking for refinement yet my speakers are less than refined. I also get the Klipsch hate and it’s fine.   I’ll have to ponder my next move.

@panzrwagn funny you mention Monitor Audio. At a local speaker fest thing they had a pair of MO bookshelf speakers. Pretty sure they were Gold 100 and around $2500 and they were a stand out. All speakers were using a Parasound HINT and it was my ...

@dynamiclinearity  I do have weights on you and currently have them on jockey picks. I’ve been researching GAIA feet for them but not sure how that would work. It’s a cncrete slab so not sure what they would bring to the table.

@mitchagain  yes and I have been scoping both.   @atl4love  true and I’m definitely open to going class a. My ambivalence about Pass is both price and I read they are a very laid back amp which isn’t something I necessary looking for. The xa25 w...

@arcticdeth  Heresy IV’s aren’t like previous versions. The top end is surprisingly smooth and refined. I too listen to death metal aling with black ambient, death industrial and power noise. The Heresys don’t disappoint.

@thecarpathian  I do very much. Which is why I’m still pondering upgrading the crap out of the amp.   @audioman58  no doubt the Coda is amazing. I’ve been eying a #8 and also a S5.5 (all class a). It’d be a big upgrade but wondering if it’s the ...

All, thanks again for all the opinions. Regardless of wether I agree, I am happy to get them anyway. it’s true I like my Heresies, so with that said, in my signal chain what do you consider the weak point?

I’m struggling to quantify what it is I want to improve on. Imaging, refinement and probably more presence, if that makes sense.

Thanks all. I like my speakers to be honest. If GR-RESEARCH comes out with a crossover kit I would do that. The Heresys reveal upstream changes which I like.   as I said, I think my system sounds really good, but I’m not quite to endgame yet.   
Sutherland LPS making sound thin?
@audphile1  have not spun anything as we prep for our thanksgiving tradition (7 turkeys this year!)   I’m hoping Black Friday will give me time to relax and spin some sides.

@avanti1960  interesting as your resounding approval swayed me to take the plunge.   
Sutherland LPS making sound thin?
@audphile1  thanks I will definitely do that. I also went ahead and changed the cart load to 475ohms which, with the LPS sounds better.   
Sutherland LPS making sound thin?
@audphile1 that’s my thinking but in searching various forums I didn’t get the idea others experienced this. It’s been plugged in for 36 hours-ish so I’ll keep on it. Love what it’s done to the upper mids and highs so far.  
What a difference a setting makes.
1k ohms. Try it. I just got an AT33PTG/II and set it at 58/100. Tried it at 1k ohms and it really shines how. I tried ever setting the 20/20 offers.   
EVS Music Purifier
Mine arrived yesterday. Both the music purifier and ground enhancers. I added them to the system on the speakers and didn’t really hear any diff.   Tonight I get home from work and Chuck a disc on and WHAT AM I HEARING? The problem is I hear a v...
