I wanted to reach out to owners of CLX's and ask about their respective room placement. I am a bit stuck in terms of side walls - my room is 14.5ft wide, so they have to stay where they are. However in terms of length it is 24.5ft so adjustments can be made. The speakers are currently around...

I am considering moving from Summit X to CLX but was interested to gather opinions on if it is a good move. My main issue is if I need a sub would this not limit the benefit of having a full range panel? My room is big enough 7.5m length x 5.5m width. I am running all ARC equipment (about to...

Hi, I am currently debating whether to listen to a couple of new power amplifier's, however once you start on that slippery slope there is normally only one way to go! I have been using a Krell FPB700cx in my system (consisting of ARC Ref5, ARC CD8, SummitX) and do enjoy the presentation very...

Hi, Just wondering if anyone is going along next weekend? It should be a good show, especially since it is at the new location (and we will be able to park :) ) I will be there on the Saturday if anyone wants to say 'hi'. Rgds Marc.

Hi, I was listening to my Summit's yesterday and I suddenly started hearing a static type of noise coming from one of the speakers. I stopped the CD and changed to another one - the problem still continued. Eventually I decided to turn the equipment off and unplug the speaker. Over the next...

Hi, I decided to play a CD this morning a little louder than normal (still not loud) and I noticed this distortion / vibration noise coming from one of my speakers. If I increased the volume the distortion / vibration got much worse. I went over to the speaker and put my head close to the...

I am currently considering splitting my system into two - a dedicated two channel and AV system. I have started looking at CD players and I have shortlisted two - the Krell Evolution 505 and the Audio Research CD7. What are people's opinions of these? Are there any others at this level that I...

Hi, I have just gone and purchased a rather large Krell FPB power amp - 700cx. Has anyone got any experience of using this amp (or any of the other FPB's) with the Summits? I spoke to a couple of hifi experts and they said that even though the bass is being driven actively, I will still hear...

Hi, As you have all probably seen from my last post I am now patiently waiting for the delivery of my Summit's :) I have a quick question though - I also have a Descent and I would like to match the wood top with that of the Summit cabinet - is it possible to order these? I have just gone for...

Hi, I am currently using Ascent I's as my front's, Theater I, Descent and Scripts. I am considering changing the Ascent's to Vantages - my question is, is this a worthwhile upgrade? Unfortunately I am not able to afford the Summits (or if I did, divorce would be inevitable!) What are people's...

Hi, I am thinking about adding a SMS-1 to my Descent - is it a worthwhile upgrade? Also, how would I connect this into my system? I am currently connecting my Descent using Transparent Super Balanced to my Krell HTS 7.1 - would I need another balanced interconnect to use as either the input to...

Has anyone ever tried this chip - it seems like it can't work, but if you read the reviews it seems as though it does. I have copied a link below with a potential explanation. Possible explanation! It is only cheap so may be worth trying - just for the fun of it! Marc.

I have just taken delivery of a nice new Theater I center speaker (replaces my Cinema). I will be taking some photos and updating my profile (system number 19) However, I noticed that the power cable required is a figure of eight and not a standard IEC. Since I have upgraded all my cables...

Hi, Has anyone tried this system? If so, what are people's findings. I have a VertexAQ filter, which made a fairly large improvement. This is a link to the coupling system: VertexAQ Kinabalu. Thanks Marc (System Number 19)
