ATC SCM 40 v2 report
You are right, of course. I misremembered the number of my KEFs. I’ll look back on my posts and give you the right model number right after this post.I think there are several reasons why people talk about the ATC‘s being too harsh or too bright o...

ATC SCM 40 v2 report
Mofojo, the kefs were less clear, boomier, and mine in particular didn’t do well with piano. I mean all of this relative to the atcs. I think the 103.2 kefs were 20 y.o., which makes for an unfair comparison.  Also, less punch- more veiled or mute... 
Uneven soundstage help, please.

Anyone ever try to toe-out?
Thanks for all the help.Let me respond to a couple of people who seem to have questions.  I tried putting 1 foot in and 1 foot out and shaking it all about, but it turns out the hokey pokey is an ineffective strategy for equalizing soundstage.As t...

Thank you for the old ears advice. I'll try it. 
Uneven soundstage help, please.
I probably wasn't clear earlier, but I'm happy now that I repositioned things--an obvious improvement. 
Uneven soundstage help, please.
