| Removal of Optimus/Lineaum dipole tweeters Anyone willing to comment on damping the cosmetic plastic covers on the LX-10s? (front face) Has anyone found a better alignment on the dipole tweeter? Forward or further back yield better results?All comments appreciated-thanks-Tom | |

| Recommend: Thin spade connectors I believe Cardas makes a special spade for use with Vandersteen speakers. | |
| Removal of Optimus/Lineaum dipole tweeters The Aurum Cantus DVCs are on their way,along with a .11mH inductor.Will be using dual 6db/oct crossover at 5Khz. | |
| Whats the best power amp $1000. for Magnepan12s? Quicksilver 90s? Heard these on a friends' Maggies-nice combo. | |
| KT88 Opinions Gold Lion re-issue or Shuguang KT88-98. | |

| Removal of Optimus/Lineaum dipole tweeters Thank you Elevick and Ait.Have the LX-10s in pieces.Ceriously considering a switch to the Aurum Cantus 7" drivers.Will be replacing components in the crossover and rewiring. Two questions:(1) Would I be better off with "new" cabinets/better built?... | |
| Removal of Optimus/Lineaum dipole tweeters It appears that there are 3 screws holding the "tweeter assembly" down (left/right/rear) on the LX-5.The LX-10 appears to have the left/right screw hold-down,but has a flange affixed over the wiring coming out of the cabinet. If loosening these sc... |
