Wilson Witt series 1 speakers, very odd problem, help!
@gdnrbobThank you for your concern. How do you know I have not already spoken at length to polk432?Which I have at length......I questioned audioconnection simply because I did not see how pics would go is all.What are your suggestions? 
Wilson Witt series 1 speakers, very odd problem, help!
@audioconnection what are you thinking on the binding posts? they are not overtightened etc?the mid woofers themselves externally look like new, internally when I removed them to check for loose connections there was some very minor dust and light... 
Wilson Witt series 1 speakers, very odd problem, help!
An update to this as I played them this morning at higher volume, after being on vacation for a week.Now the mids will not play at all and it sounds like the lh speaker tweeter is also on the fritz as just sibilance is all I can here.maybe somethi... 
Thinking of replacing my Bat spaceheater with class D, real world thoughts please
For now there will not be any class d being tried in my system , not made of money and the Wilsons took all my spare "hifi play money"...lolThe brief trial of my nuforce in my stereo rig did not go well although I am sure there are really good cla...

Again thanks to all but for now the BAT/Wilson. McIntosh combo I am using right now is making me very happy and I am doing just what any good audiophile should...which is just sit back and enjoy the music!TBH the room where my rig is located is ac... 
Wilson Audio Haters
Thought this was as good a place as any to post this...lolMy experience with WilsonLast week I bought a used pair of Wilson Witt mk1 ( yes the cheapest Wilsons you can get, gotta start somewhere!)After spending about 60 minutes or so working on pl...

Thanks GeorgeIt was an avenue I was interested in exploring simply because of the good results I had with the ht rig.However in retrospect majority of the listening is dialogue and special effects...loud ones!Not too much finesse needed there, jus...

Just a quick updateI did find time on Monday to play around and moved the nuforce ht amp over to the stereo rig for some tests.Now it may be a little unfair as this cost $1600 vs $8500 for the BAT but I was very dissapointed in the results. Very m...

@mitch2 The BAT is just the same, i can tell a difference in sq after it has been on and played for approx 30minutes but not enough that I leave it on all the time, it comes on with a 12v trigger from the pre and that is it.@mainsI checked out the... 
Thinking of replacing my Bat spaceheater with class D, real world thoughts please
Yes the BAT certainly is a very efficient heater for sure...lolHowever I have to say that since starting this thread I have made a few changes that have left me in quite the sonic nirvana for now,New speaker cables, wooden blocks under the speaker... 
Break In Experiences with Anti-Cables level 2.1 speaker cables?
Just thought I would update this.I did in the end return the anticables as just could not tame down the bass bloom to my taste.I purchased a set of van den hul d352 to replace ( ebay, right length, right time, right price meant to be...lol)With th...

@asvjerry Cant say as I have done a study on the heat but after a couple hours of run time even at moderate volume levels it sure is pumping out the heat above it.That and its 120lb bulk are reasons it sits on its own little amp stand in clear fre...

@rhljazz A very interesting scenario thereVery easily accomplished too as any class d amp could sit right on top of the BAT and just move the power cords, xlr connects and speaker cables up it without changing much of anything.More food for though...

@jafant I do not use a BAT pre simply because the mc. c48 is a all in one solution and was a big step up from the older arc ls2b I was using previously.I considered BAT pre of course but the c48 let me get rid of 2 other boxes and simplfy matters.... 
Thinking of replacing my Bat spaceheater with class D, real world thoughts please
I entirely agree that it will all depend on how it sounds in my system and am prepared to do a number of a/b comparisons of a lengthy nature.However my main focus was to see how many had actually gone this route and if they regretted it and just s...
