Thank you very much, RAH! I enjoy them almost every day ;) The music is very often giving me an interior peace when my head is full of worries. With the help of the Summits, this relaxation is even more effective.

Well, they were originally not made for the Summits, those racks were made to support mono blocks, but I also think they look cool and are for sure enhancing the sound of my system. Thanx ;)

Thank you :bowdown:

Ohh, I can imagine :) Your system is one of the most impressive I saw on this forum and many members are warmly recommending Nelson Pass's amplification. But even second hand, the Pass Labs are absolutely out of my budget...well, for the moment ;)

Well, the tilting of the outrigger racks is very small, the back side's level is mainly raised by changing the position of the nuts on the threaded rod, as you may see it on the picture, and some fine levelling by turning the metal feet. The different heights of the original spikes are also used...

In my quest for an even better amplification of my Summits, a Linn Akurate Kontrol preamp and Mark Levinson No 432 dualmono poweramp are my newest guests for a try. Gee, they are very promising. Still need to talk to my banker though....

Hi! I have similar problems with my Summits as reybent. The difference is that when playing loud and bass-heavy musical piece, not only the front woofer goes off, but the backside LED goes off as well!! In the meantime, the downfiring woofer keeps working. When I unplug the power cable (the...

I have added a picture to my first post of this thread showing my new passive component: an outrigger-looking speaker-base. This is a 1,9 inch-thick sandwich structure, composed of quartz sand clamped between two 0,43 inch-thick steel plates on top and bottom. Each speaker-base is about 45...

I shall admit that I haven't tried to hear the effect with reversed polarity, I instantly plugged the Summits the regular way, I'm pleased to hear from you that I will probably not need to make a try ;) PS: I also made measurements with a cheap voltmeter some time ago, my amp showed the same...

If measuring the AC by means of a voltmeter is difficult like with the Summits, I see only two possible alternatives: - Presume that ML has observed the international wiring standard, which means that the Live shall enter into your speakers through the left-side pin of the IEC plug installed on...

Although very satisfied with my Chinese Dussun (in close relation with Red Rose Music - Mark Levinson's Affirmation integrated amp) I always have in mind to look for something even more serious gear. I had the chance to audition a Halcro DM68 amp with a pair of Montis (and Ayre preamp + Linn...

Thanks RAH :bowdown: PS: I forgot to mention to my system upgrade the recent introduction of a Music Timbre RCA interconnect cable. A small American manufacturer's astonishingly good cable...

I have posted some new pictures and new components description to the first post of this thread, since some new cables (Audio Fusion Enchanter) and many GIK Acoustics panels and bass traps arrived recently. I'm still away from my own dedicated listening room, there is no possibility to really...

Although this has been widely discussed in other threads, and Gordon is surely a fine connoisseur of the topic, I can presume that because ML is engaged in continuous willingness to improve, they have added the possibility to tilt at higher angle with the Summit-X. Who knows, the engineers of ML...

Thanks! Being new in the world of ESL's, I recently realized how narrow is the sweet spot, but since my listening habits are to "sit and enjoy" on a single armchair precisely positioned, i don't care to much :) I have a very weak remembrance of an MBL system I've heard on a show in Vienna...
