grills or no grills on your speakers..matters?
Polk432 has it right. It depends on the system, the speaker, the grill. 
'Holographic Sound Stage?'
I totally agree with Martykl. Nothing else to add. 
Belle Klipsch VS La Scalla?
I'm a Klipsch fan (I have 2 pairs, one pair a factory custom) but I'm also an advanced audiophile and there are plenty of speakers that sound better than heritage Klipsch. Have you looked at the Reference or the Palladium series? Very nice soundin... 
Best Used Amps. for Infinity RS-1B Speakers
Lots of choices really. Some of it will depend on how loud you want to play, the RS1Bs need some power. The 120 watt Brystons are going to run short of power. I run my woofers with a Parasound A21 that's a nice cheap amp that sounds good. I have a... 
Price Increases
"Apple to apple" comparison? That's easy they are loudspeakers, use your ears. All speakers are in the same group, just different prices and sizes. 
Infinity RS1 Servo problem
Tomtab,70Hz works for me but the woofers in the ML are still active not like your system where the EMIMs come in at 150Hz so the lower setting works in my system. The blend is very good. The DBX is part of the pro line so it has either 1/4 inch ca... 
Album which you have listened to most?
The Pink Floyd, ELO, Supertramp. 
The "Eagles" - Best Albums
Desperado is my favorite album but most of their albums are good recordings. Hell Freezes Over is a little bass heavy and will sound great on a system that is a little lean in the bass region. 
Does your system sound better than most demo's?
Way better than most demos and if it doesn't, I know it's upgrade time. 
Tone Controls can be so nice.
I can live without them. I get my systems to sound as good as they can, and after that I just listen to the music, no need for further tweaking. 
Infinity RS1 Servo problem
I got the DBX crossover today. Got it all plugged in and running. It took a few minutes to get the settings in the ball park but I seem to have a handle on it now. I ordered the DBX223XL with XLR connectors. I used XLR to RCA adapters mostly becau... 
Infinity RS1 Servo problem
"... so you can sent just a bass signal to it you said you have it set to 100 hz? does that mean you have a dbx now and are using it..."No, I have the Infinity controller LOW PASS CUTOFF set at LOW. The literature says that is 100HZ. "...its stere... 
Infinity RS1 Servo problem
Tomtab,Thanks for the info. You seem to have a good handle on the ins and outs of the Infinity X-over. Everything you have said is the same as I understand it. I don't have the mid panels from the IRS 1Bs, I got the extra woofer towers from my bro... 
Lower Volume from One Monoblock
Just for kicks, try putting in new fuses. Sometimes it's something simple. 
Infinity RS1 Servo problem
I just had my right channel develop a hum. I haven't changed anything so something "broke" in my servo/crossover unit. Tomtab, I'm going to try the DBX crossover but that means the servo controller is non-functioning. Servo feedback is supposed to...
