soundermn: My room is a mere 13X16 and they image perfectly 9’ apart and about the same distance from my listening position. I just adjusted the toe-in to focus them about 2’ behind my listening position (per Eric’s suggestion) and they coalesce r...

soundermn - DIs are not the least bit bright speakers. Silk soft-domes tweeters = Not bright or forward vs metal tweeters = close shave, lasers. forward, hifi-ish, overly detailed, can lack coherence with the rest of frequency range, and tend to...

Thanks Jeffery for the very thorough response. A 7 isn't as bad as I was assuming. I needed that translation into a number scale to take my own bias out of the equation.  I can't fault your chosen positioning of them as a contributing factor eithe...

Jeffrey regarding the 'forward in your face'  description;  Are you able to increase the distance between you and the speakers, or try to aim them with less toe-in using a focal point behind your sitting position by several feet, or space them apa...

I’m listening to Eva singing "Fever" on a 24/96khz remaster very loudly at the moment. I couldn’t imagine listening to this except a SET tube amp and the DIs at such a high volume and not being forced to turn it down on most speakers with metal tw...

Hello jcarcopo, Let me know if the new production Elrogs 300b prove to be reliable , obviously this will take time to determine. Ìt is a fabulous sounding tube in my amplifier but unfortunately unreliable. This reportedly has been resolved with t...

mdlofnwhr, I’m glad you’re going with the DIs. I love a good SET Tube Amplifier, but I’m biased in my opinion. (tube humor) I have ordered a pair of Nord Acoustic nforce hypex based 400w monos for a client’s install and I’m sort of kicking myself ... 
Tekton Pendragons - looking for low watt SET amp
I've own two Art Audio Diavolo SETs.  I spent $6000 for the original in 2003 and recently, $8500, for the new Copper  Reference 300b Diavolo SET. The amplifier retails for $11,500.00USD  I can only tell you I arrived at my choice after listening t...

Just chiming in. Received my DIs a couple of weeks ago.  A little about my background: In the past I've worked in the high-end audio retail side for about a decade and the engineering and manufacturing side for part of that time.  I've owned Von S...
