Full range break in
Thanks mc!Any updates on delivery?Interested to know if the Moabs (with different woofer configuration vs your Talons) might dictate moving around one or more of your subwoofers.Also, I have had great results elevating 3 of my subs and facing them... 
Full range break in
mc - I am running the same Dayton SA 1000 as you but only using one.  Also running 4 separate subs vs your 5.Is turning down just the Frequency knob (the one between Phase and Gain) all that's needed to allow full range? Congrats again on the Moa...

Audioquest or Kimber kable.
I have been using Rocket 88s with great results on KEF LS50s, Ologe 5s, Magnepan LRS and B&W Matrix 801 S2s.4 significantly different types of speakers.I also have a "lower" grade Kimber that sounds fine as well, just not like the 88s. A "high...
