So, again, a question concerning amps. Building five to seven amplifier modules on one chassis IS a compromise.You might look at a high quality amp {2 CH} for the fronts.Why not an original Theta Dreadnaught or cheaper Plinius? | |

Upgrading speakers...Legacy Focus 20/20??? I heard the 20/20 locally.I was more impressed at lower volumes.They are supposedly 98 db/w efficient,but always sound better with higher wayy solidstate.You will need to move them out from the wall significantly to reduce the bass bulge and their... | |
MG 20.1 or Wisdom audio m-75 I am curious.When I worked at Salon 1 Audio,we were delivered a pair of updated Sound Labs that belonged to a customer.These were delivered to the store ,wrapped in burlap.The transformer covers could not be closed {stood ajar} and I wondered to m... | |
MG 20.1 or Wisdom audio m-75 The Wisdoms are a strange animal.They require a large amp to drive the ribbons and,by using a different amp for the subs-they won't blend.These also tend to produce moreinstrument,then hall acoustics.I would lean toward the MG 20.1s.Had you consid... | |
4 or 8 ohm ? You may find the 8 ohm tap to yield better hi-frequency reproduction.If it doesn't control the bass,use the 4 ohm tap.As I understand most transformer output set-ups,the actual "matching" is lower than that stated {IE;8 ohm is closer to 6 ohms}. | |

Adding a Base to Floorstanding Speakers Metralla,sorry that I didn't respond.I have lost my previous dog and have introduced a "new" puppy into my home.A real joy/terror. I believe that Stehno has answered your question.These different technologies/approaches deal with removing or drain... | |
Adding a Base to Floorstanding Speakers Leave the spikes on and look at an audio platform {Zoethecus,Mapleshade,Star Sound or Arcici}. | |
