HELP I think I have an electrical issue??

My dunlavy scV sound harsh
Ten replies and all seem to agree that harshness is not a normal Dunlavy trait. Doesn't mean that your tweeter isn't broken. Have you owned them for a while and, if so, is this something new?

Autoformer versus Transformer Passives?
I think I've mentioned this before, but I built my own linestage using S&B mk3 transformers from John. I tried wiring them up as autoformers, as mentioned on some forum. There was a very slight difference in sound but, in the end, it was more ...

Help What's Wrong with my System
Nice gear. Nice auditorium. Hales T8's are one of my favourites but I've never heard them in a room that size. Consider line arrays.
