Pass X1 preamp question
The difference I may be hearing with the display off may warrant it being dimmed off if doing some extremely careful critical listening. I still say there is a difference psychoachioustical or not. I notice a slight touch of noise dissappear like ... 
Will I notice improvement with crossover mods?
I should add that the Millenium dropped in nicely without having to change my modified crossovers. I didn't even need to remove the 0.33 ohm resistance in the tweeter section. It was as easy as installing a tweeter that fit in nicely. 
Will I notice improvement with crossover mods?
1000 hours play on my Hales with the crossover mods with about 300 hours on the Millenium tweeters I installed and the speakers are sounding very very good. I'm blown away actually. I never thought the results would be as positive as they are. The... 
Hales tweeter?
300 hours play and my speakers arte singing. I really enjoy this new sound. It's an improvement top to bottom. The speaker has a whole new characteristic sound which I am enjoying.I am enlightened on just how much a tweeter can change the sound of... 
Hales owners discussion
Dawgbyte, It would be easier to sell a pair of Hales stock than it would with all kinds of modifications as people know what they are getting when they buy stock items as opposed to a speaker that has been modified. Although I put alot of money in...

Replacing the stock tweeters with the Seas Millenium tweeter gives the speaker a whole new sound. I always liked my T5's but now they are a different speaker. It's a good thing that I like the sound as I think they would be almost impossible to se... 
Pass X1 preamp question
Steno, How do you find the Pass preamps compare with the Chapter. I see you use or used one in your system. Personally I think the X1 sounds quite good but I'm curious about the Chapter for curiousities sake. 
Pass X1 preamp question
Apparently it's psychoachoustical and being very suggestive by nature there appears to be a difference but there is none in reality other than what I think I hear. I love the preamp. 
Pass X1 preamp question
I hear a slight edge off the top removed with the dimmer down. I know the digital circuitry is seperate from the analogue and the difference I hear is very subtle yet it is there. Not enough to have me dimming down the display all the time however... 
Pass X1 preamp question
It's as if some rf is removed making the sound cleaner but it's subtle.Any body else notice this? 
Hales T5's Vifa's $ ohm or 6 ohm?
Dawgbyte, The Vifa tended toards a little harsh or brilliant sounding and the Seas is more mellow and airy without loss of detail.It's quite obvious the Millenium are far superior. My speakers are more sophisticated sounding.I'm happy and excited.... 
Hales T5's Vifa's $ ohm or 6 ohm?
I took the plunge an installed the Seas Millenium about 20 hours ago. It is a nice improvement as far as I can hear. I don't know how it would read on a test but it sounds awesome. I'm excited and am not putting back the origional tweeters. These ... 
Free air resonance?
I put in the Millenium tweeters about 10 hours ago and am extremely impressed and excited. Perhaps my speakers won't read well on paper if tested, I don't know but the sound is more sophisticated sounding. It is not "dark" or have lower levels of ... 
Hales tweeter?
I decided to push my luck and install the Millenium. So far so good after 6 hours.They are smoother yet still very detailed. It is like I am listening to a more sophisticated sound. It's hard to explain it and I don't know if it would look any goo... 
Hales tweeter?
I got lucky with the crossovers. I think I'll not push my luck. Anyhow I'm learning that the Hales tweeters are pretty good. Not just because I think they sound good but others claim the tweeters to be very good.
