Ok. Let’s try this again. I went the full 80/100 on my speaker placement. Where distance between speakers is 80% of the distance to the listening chair. The math was easy because the chair is 10’. ...

I like this system!  Seems like the perfect kind of room for corner loading speakers like those. I’ve always wanted to hear the audio note speakers.

Further refinements:  speakers are now 10’ away from listening position and 7.5’ apart. Increasing speaker separation by such a large margin had significant impact on the sound. I definitely prefer...

I just reinstalled the 300b back in the system and it is a very big difference. Much, much better than the “B set up.”  Which isn’t to say the Had/Patek combo sounds bad. It is simply that the 300b...

Thanks cymbop!  Looking at your system I could say the exact same thing. I especially like the tasteful room treatments. I had never seen those giant b&w speakers before. I bet they sound huge.

Added a Bluesound Node2i to the system.  After some hiccups with getting the right streaming service, I think I like it.  For $550, I think it is worth having.  I need to do a direct comparison wit...

Oregon’s review is reason enough for me to want to hear this system. Must be great for music and movies. Clearly a labor of love or obsession or both!  For how long have you had your Talons?

This is a wonderful system.  I like the room set up as well. It looks like a well used and well loved listening area.  I bet it sounds amazing. Which is your favorite amp/source combo with the AGs?

Speakers are now 10’ away from the listening position and 6.5’ apart. I will keep it this way for a while. When I was sitting two feet forward (8’ away) the sound was lean, bright, and missing the ...

More good thoughts, Jet. Thank you. I had AN coppers in the amp 12 or so years ago. I remember it sounding good. But there were different trannies in there and I think this was before AN was using ...
