Back at it again replaced my wall receptical with a 5.00 Pass&Seymour TR5262 and initial testing is a definite Upgrade over the contractor one that was in the wall. After reading took a shot and worth the investment. Was sceptical but after 5 minutes it is a night and day Improvement. Sure is...

2 channel and video is both a goal for the best picture and sound in the space that I do have. My screen is floating so it can go back against the wall or extend 2 feet out in the room. By being 10ft back I have a perfect triangle. So a 16L X12D room speakers on the 16 wall. I have listened both...

Well the Axiom Western Electric passive preamp is burning in nicely with about 5 hours on it and is a keeper �� So I have the oppo 103d with an 8 pole tributaries power cable and a DH Labs Air matrix II feeding the preamp and the McIntosh now running in the 8 ohm taps with Tara...

While waiting on my Axiom preamp to arrive I got bored and gave the 2ohm taps a try. Seems to have balanced the system out with a larger soundstage and more accurate bass. The biggest improvement was the mids and treble. I have a 40 year old amp the synergy has improved and I like the large airy...

Just wrapped the DH Labs Air Matrix in foil and electrical tape and seems to have changed for the better. The silver cables warmed up and focus and placement of instruments improved in the soundstage. I also noticed the bottom end improvement is nearly 2 fold. The OPPO and McIntosh Mc2200 sounds...

Using this thread to update my upgrade progress and the addition of DH Labs Air Matrix interconnects connected between the Oppo 103d and Mcintosh MC2200 amp has given me more dynamics,clarity,depth,detail and the speakers just get out of the way in my room. My old interconnects were made by...

Thanks. Tried the 8ohm taps and sounded flat and compressed and when I switched to the 4ohm taps they really sing. Going straight out of an Oppo 103d and seems to be a great match. So looks like I will be holding off on a preamp. Using a Tributaries 8pole power cord and custom made...

Me to but the love affair did not last long. I bought a McIntosh MC 2200 and have taken the Ascents to the next level. As good as the Sansui was I got greedy and it paid off with the power increase and the dynamics improvement was enough to move the Sansui.

Thanks they are great with movies they replaced Paradigm Signature 6 speakers and there is no looking back. I did move them out but the gain in soundstage was not worth The look of the theater.

Thanks for the kind words and I played around and there is not enough difference to give up the space in my room. Although it is better it is not enough to move the Ascents into the room. With movies it makes no difference but with audio it is improved moving them 3ft into the room

Ascents and Sansui AU AX-911DG integrated New to the Logan family and just wanted to share these Ascents in my 11X16 room are amazing and are positioned on the long way and I sit 9.5 feet back. They flank 110" projection screen that is floating 2 feet out from the wall. I also have the room...
