SACD DSD64 approaches the resolution of 192/24 PCM and does not suffer from clock jitter as much as PCM. And there is a sonic difference that I and many others hear. It was developed originally as a way to best archive master tapes for the recording industry. PCM did not fit that bill...

I have a pair of Summits. The Summit X has a different improved cross over but everything else is the same. I have so much bass coupling to the room I have to deal with a +20 Db humpat 20hz which is corrected (tamed) with a TacT room correction. So there is more bass than needed if the...

I would go with the Summits verses bringing an external sub into the system. Subs integrated wrong, which most are, can leave you with a sound that is not coherent. Placement for proper timing and applying the proper roll offs for crossing over from the mains can leave you with a less than...

I have had my Summits since 2007 and have been overjoyed with what I have heard from them over the years. I have owned many speakers over the years including Klipshorns in the late 70s. I have not felt the need to move on from the Summits as I have had them in 2 dedicated purposed built sound...

I have also just picked up a new pair of the M1200s for my Summits. They replaced a NAD M22. I am getting another octave out of the bottom end and the midrange is detailed yet smooth. They are also more forward. I get a bunch more floor movement which I love. I did 300 hour break-in. I did...

I think I would either find the original jumper straps from ML or would make a banana jumper. If your speaker cable has spades you what to stay away from stacking 2 spades under the binding posts.

I have a pair of Summitts. I have had them since 2005 and for many years they were driven with a Millennium Mk3. I replaced that amp with a Lyngdorf SDA-2400. Did not like the sound in the midrange. Much different to the Millennium. But both had huge bass. Its more about the room and...

The speakers do not have the ability to cut off. The panel has no protective relays. If you unplug the speakers you will still get some sound from the panels, you just loose all the bass. I agree with everyone that it is your amps. There are many amps that are not to be bridged on anything...

I have a pair of Summits and recently changed amps. I auditioned a Hegel H20 for a month. I found it to be more forward and it had a harsh upper midrange. Made some of my recordings unlistenable. I ended up with a NAD M22 which was much smoother and with more bass extension. This is my 2nd...

My opinion is the ESL will cover both realms of music and home theater. The big issue is you do not have the budget to achieve that goal. To get the ESL that will do well in home theater it cannot be any of the entry level speakers. That being said you are left putting together a Motion...

I have a pair of the original Summits I bought in 2007. I originally heard them at a Chicago Audio Society meeting and fell in love the the bass. They can integrate into a room and produce amazing sound. I use room correction and measure bass response below 20 Hz without the correction. I...

I currently have Summits I bought new in 2007. From day one they have been everything I wanted in the way of a speaker. I have them in a dedicated 2nd floor 26 x 22 x 9 sound room built new for its purpose. I have been driving them with a TacT(Lyngdorf) Millennium Mk III since I bought them...

Age: 60 Mains: Summits

I am a new Summit owner (3 weeks) and am trying to get good advice on a starting point for speaker setup. I have a 24 x 14' room with speakers on the short wall 3' behind and 2' to side wall. I sit 2' up from the back wall. The amp is a Tact Millennium MkIII with a Tact RSC 2.0S...
