Again even more reason to find another dealer. If those speakers were imaging too high with similar problems in the soundstage, IMHO the upper modules were not set up correctly. If properly set up ...

Alectiongyou need to find yourself another dealer as he doesn't have a clue what he is talking about. People are fooled by 18 watts. Bear in mind that it is SET and not Push-Pull. I have ha...

I don't need subs for 2 channel music and the ML 2.1's are just fine in controlling the woofers. My room is also used for HT and that is where the Gothams are primarily used. As I have stated previ...

It only gets better. I promise. IMHO it is one of the three top speakers made.

I'm curious what the funky interactions were. Bear in mind that the X-2 is front ported and can literally be placed against the front wall without compromising the bottom end BUT at seriously narro...

If you think about it you are bringing your bottom up only between 21-22 Hz, far from huge. I bet you can do better by crossing over higher but not at the expense of adding too much mid bass

I would have you try crossing over a little higher as all your subs are doing are the very lowest of the bottom as compared to the X-2 which as I stated go down to 20 Hz. My subs cross IIRC at 45 H...

considering it takes less than a minute to bias the amps it is for me a no brainer.I guess that if something is tough to look at and you wouldn't own one, then what am I missing in the "eye ca...

Brian...there is absolutely NO reason to avoid tubes. As far as heat is concerned the Lamm ML2.1's generate hardly any. You will never get to the next level or appreciate what tubes can do for thos...

It took well over 100 hours before they "began" to open up. Brian , as per prior conversations, the Holy Cr#$!moment comes when you see the light and get tube preamp and amp...not before....

So Brian I would have to say that with the unveiling of these speakers today, you should have a smile on your face as they really are "that good"
