2009-2010 - Tony's 2 channel systemHi Alecog, sorry for the delay. I wish Agon would send an email when someone posts...Regarding the xovers - the xover points were changed quite a bit - the woofers now cross at about 210hz ... posted over 15 years ago | View comment | |
2009-2010 - Tony's 2 channel systemHi, yes, I did the install. It took about 8 hrs of very careful work but was so worth it! posted over 15 years ago | View comment | |
2009-2010 - Tony's 2 channel systemHi, I may try them. Some like them and others don't - like everything else audio ;) With the current BE tweets micro-dynamics are already outstanding so I'll be surprised if its worth the $$$... I ... posted over 15 years ago | View comment | |
2009-2010 - Tony's 2 channel systemPaul, I look forward to your impressions. I've had a few different amps both tube and SS - the ASR pushes my buttons just right ;)Tony posted almost 16 years ago | View comment | |
2009-2010 - Tony's 2 channel systemHi Paul, when I heard the ASR in a friend system it had been turned off completely - wasn't even in standby mode. It sounded very mechanical and distant - not at all like his system sounded with hi... posted almost 16 years ago | View comment | |
2009-2010 - Tony's 2 channel systemthanks Zephyr ;-) I really like the ASR amp feel it's a keeper for a long time. It's simply the best amp I've had in my system - it works flawlessly and transcends the tube/SS stereotypes - just a ... posted almost 16 years ago | View comment | |
2008-2009 - Tony's 2 channel systemyes, the 210's are gone along with the BAT VK-52SE. Both very excellent sounding pieces but your right - the heat just became a problem. My audio room faces west and with all the windows it gets a ... posted over 16 years ago | View comment | |
2008-2009 - Tony's 2 channel systemSystem edited: replaced my ARC 210's and BAT VK-52SE with the ASR. Still getting used to the different sound but WOW - everything that's been written about this piece is accurate - not SS or tube s... posted over 16 years ago | View comment | |

2008-2009 - Tony's 2 channel systemKenobi: I was using the Boston tuning blocks with tungsten ball under the BAT - I compared them with the PW4's and heard no difference so I sold the more expensive Tuning Blocks. I didn't have anyt... posted almost 17 years ago | View comment | |

2008-2009 - Tony's 2 channel systemPierre, I don't have a NAS - I just have a bunch of drives for my FLAC music. The drives are in my office which is behind the left wall. I use an ethernet cable instead of wireless. No Itunes. posted almost 17 years ago | View comment | |

2008-2009 - Tony's 2 channel systemElberoth2: the first thing I noticed was that the soundstage is huge with the 210's - it extends to both side walls. I rarely got that with the Lamm's - they produced a soundstage mostly between th... posted almost 17 years ago | View comment | |
2008-2009 - Tony's 2 channel systemHi Pierre, no I didn't listen to the 110's first. I had the Lamm M1.2's when I bought the 210's. I have a few of the Yellowjacket CD's - good stuff ;) posted almost 17 years ago | View comment | |
2008-2009 - Tony's 2 channel systemHi Pierre, like you mention, since I have different speakers it's hard to describe the difference between the 211's and 210's. I can say that my system has never sounded better ;) posted almost 17 years ago | View comment | |

2007-2008 - Tony's 2 channel systemafter the system shown here I bought some Innersound Kayas and the Lamm M1.2 amps. That was a nice combination but I didn't like the restricted listening position. I got a Modwright Transporter and... posted about 17 years ago | View comment | |
