Its a finished basement for the most part except for the floor. Just a remnant down in the middle. It measures 18x19 with 7' ceiling. I believe the fronts are 8-10' apart about 6" from the back wall and 5' or so from the side walls. They just can'...

Bob and everybody else who's weighed in on this, thanks for the numerous new options and things to think about with my future purchase. With a little luck and alot of money I might just find something that I'm happy listening to. Take care everyon...

Can anyone weigh in on the performance of kef floorstanders? Specifically the Q55's? I'm stuck between psb image 5t's, paradigm reference studio 60's, and wharfedale diamond 10.7's 10.5's or 9.6's. Too many choices and not enough rooms for all of ...

No, no offense taken. I was honestly starting to question my hearing,  lol. I've played in bands for years and like to think I have a pretty good ear when it comes to music and sound. The mirages were a blind bought audition. And since getting mor...

Ok, I mean I noticed when I first had my mirage towers just running thru an old onkyo 809. I thought to myself "it must be the receiver unable to push them like they need to bring out their true sound. Maybe if I upgrade amplifiers" , so I did wit...

sfall, You mentioned a passive line stage, but how am I suppose to run that directly to my xpa3? The amp doesn't have any inputs or equipment. I'm kind of lost here.

Ok. Hey, I appreciate the feedback. Things I've heard about but wouldn't have thought to try first. Thanks 
Looking to upgrade my towers
Perfect! Thats what I'll try. Any idea where one can be brought from?
