Grateful Dead Remasters?
I bought the rhino remastered GOING FOR THE ONE by YES on cd. It is better than the LP I have. The LP is not a master. The LP is thin lifeless. The Rhino cd is richer better tonality and dementionality. 
Is Bi - amping worth the trouble?
It has been a long time since I have bi amped but I have found that I like keeping it simple with the highest quality components I can afford. Currently I am using a pair of McCormack DNA-1 monoblocks with all of SMCs mods and enjoy them more than...

1st order crossover?

1st order crossover?
I will list all of the crossover points. 120,1,000,2,000,and 6,500. I like the speakers a lot. I am just curious about the 1,000 and 2,000 points. If there are knowledgable folks out there that can shed some light on this matter I would appreciate...
