Combining different speaker cables for bi-wiring?
There are as you know 2 ways to go on this.Myself, I would go for one brand for the top and bottom. I also switch them periodically so each cable is breaking in fully.But, I can see the other view on this, optimizing the benefits of each cable str... 
Efficient Dynamic Speaker with low-end punch?
In keeping with Veroman suggestion, replace your Pass Amp with one of the new .5 series. Perhaps a used X350.5 or X250.5

Review: Sonus Faber Cremona Speaker
Briang, Interesting...Now that I think about it, I did comment to the Dealer that the listening room appeared to be square in shape.That is probably why the Dealer had them out in the room to smooth out the frequency bump.  
Review: Sonus Faber Cremona Speaker
qwerty,If you read my posting you would see that the Cremonas I listened to were played on a Dealers System. He was using Linn equipment. The models were quite pricey because he bragged about each piece (CD Player, Preamp, Amp ) being around $10,0... 
Any problem with a long power cord?

New Von Schweikert VR SR4 mk11 Cream or Crap ???
I just got done moving the speakers around in my room and I find that now the rear speakers full on sounds better. Also, after 300 hours of music playing thru them they are developing a very large soundstage.I now have my speakers 36" measured fro... 
New Von Schweikert VR SR4 mk11 Cream or Crap ???
Spenceroo, the outriggers mounted into the same holes that the spikes go into. They look great !.My floor (cement) was uneven and all speakers would rock where I placed them. With these outriggers the babies are level and solid. Great product.I ha... 
Will high price HDMI cable makes a difference?
Honestly, if you own a 1080P set, why are you so proud of buying cheap cables?What have you compared the $5 ones too? 
Review: Sonus Faber Cremona Speaker
Gjgoldy,I was all set to buy the Cremona's after hearing the Salesman demo. but even the Salesman knew when I put on regular Rock Music the speakers sounded bad. I think they only have a 6" woofer, so, I guess what did I expect ?By the way, the CD...
