The wait is killing me...watching the ups tracker in the morning bugs the living hell out of me.  Anyone want some sweet spot fob yonder from last night?  Only aud rig since Folske and crew ran from the board.

OK, quick mini review with pics coming later this evening.  These are by far, the best purchase I have ever made in my all encompassing audio wprld carreer.  They absolutely smoke.  They are heads, heels, you name it above any other speaker I have EVER heard, and I have auditioned quite a few.  The detail from the tweeter is so sweet, spacious, etc, it's like a veil has been lifted off of my recordings.  Listening to my 24/48 yonder show from last week was one of the sweetest musical experiences I have ever had.  The attack and transients of the acoustic stuff is incredible.  I will post something far more detailed this evfening, but rest assurred, if you want to hear these, DO so! 

Refrence system for what it is worth is now:

BPT 1.5 modified power conditioner, all bolder nitro wiring, upgraded outlets, addition of ers cloth etc.  Very similar to the signature models except I did all of this myself at about 1/3rd the cost.

Modified by Bolder Panansonic XR-45

Bolder Nitro Speaker cabling

Cryotweaks refrence digital cable

lots of tweaks, isolation pads, spikes, bybee's, zsleeves etc.

Regards ;D

Give me a negative, doesn't matter :P

I will post pics later, I think you will be impressed all.  They are truly works of art.  The cabinets are Mark Schrifter designs, of av123.com rocket/onix fame.

If you can't post pictures because you are at work and your new-less-than-24hr-old speakers are at home, you clearly misunderstand the intended use of sick leave.

Tickets are dead to me.  Except the ones I have, don't have, and lost.  Not to mention the ones you have, don't have, and lost.   And the ones that other dude has, doesn't have, and lost.  Let me know if you need some tickets, I'm happy to oblige.

Is the extreme speaker toe-in due to posing for pics, or for some other necessity?

According to the placement directions from brian who made these suckers, he told me they should be aimed approximately 2 feet in fron of the listening position.  Seeing as my room is 15 x 15, that's what I have to do.

Check out the setup link at
http://www.vmpseurope.com

I imagine that would explain it.  I need to get some toy lasers so I can be a little more definate on positioning, as my ears are still adjusting.

Steps for using a laser to determine proper speaker setup:

1) afix a laser to the top of each speaker so that the laser beam projects parallel to the axis of the drivers
2) the listener should assume the intended listening position and have a helper adjust the speakers while monitoring the point where each laser strikes
3) when the listener's eyes are both burning, the speakers are properly aligned
4) enjoy

well, the other senses, such as hearing, do become enhanced when none of the others is lost. so maybe your onto something?
theres a tweak!

and it would definitely be a blind comparison!  ;D (sorry, that was awful  ::) )
