Just because you do not like the better speaker does not mean it is not better...just that your ears are more accustomed to a speaker that is not as accurate IMO. Sent from my SM-G985F using Tapatalk

To all that do not want be vaccinated and say it is their right...with the ICUs getting close to max due to unvacinated, you are affecting other who are vaccinated and need medical attention for other reasons. The ones yhat need medical attention could be a loved person in a car accident or any other serious condition. Sent from my SM-G985F using Tapatalk

Why not attenuate via your active crossover? Sent from my SM-G985F using Tapatalk

Well it might be more readily available for me in México and no waiting for the vaccine. Sent from my SM-G985F using Tapatalk

I use the Icepower asx125btl amps for my MEH woofers...sound fine to me. Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk

If I can get the money together this year... I want to get the Trinnov Altitude 16 or a used 32. By going this route I can sell my Xilica xp4080, 2 DDRC88M boxes, and my cxa5100, and save space in the rack...plus have a upgradeble preamp. This will be my endgame processor if I can get the cash together. The Trinnov Altitude can do 80+ filters per speaker. Another nice feature is you can rotate the sound to othrr speakers of you have a tv on the side wall...so you can still use your system speakers 90 degrees from normal.

I heard some Companies are raising their prices by more than 10%. Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk

Wife is def against that....it was hard enough to get the MEHs in the room, hopefully I will have 2 more soon. We are also contemplating moving to Portugal in a few years...so I am mainly trying to get everything I want before we do a move, so I can avoid high duty rates. Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk

I would be interested in how room perfect does. Another one I am seriously looking at is the AudioControl Maestro x7. From what I have read they are 2nd to none on customer service, and the product is coming up on 2 years since release. I also have heard they just work. Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk

The one problem I had with the Monolith is the VOG channel is summed from 2 channels, and I want a single VOG channel. Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk

Thanks...The NAD and Anthem were on my list previously too...I just wish they had Auro3d, and Roon too.

I currently have a Yamaha cxa5100, and I am wanting to upgrade to something that can get more out of my audio setup. I have been looking at the Monoprice HTP-1, JBL SDP50, Lyngdorf MP50 or MP60, and the Trinnov Altitude 16 channel. The Trinnov is really quite a bit over over budget though...unless I can find a super deal. I have a difficult room to tune with a 32' high concave brick ceiling that is about 25' long, with about 8' of it having a 2nd floor loft. The room is 19' wide, and 40' long. All built out of brick, and with marble floors. I have 13' tall heavy stage curtains o. The front wall, 7' wide curtains on both side walls (same as the front wall curtains), with 2 bass traps 13' tall. I will be placing some 4" thick 4'x4' absorption panels on each side of the MEHs, plus about 6 2'x4' panels up hiher on the walls, and in the center of the front wall (between the 2 12' or so windows). I have listed the room because I have been told some room processors do better with hard to setup rooms. I am not interested in Audyssey or YPAO. I like Dirac, but I am not sure if something like Roomperfect would do a better job in my situation...hence why I am asking about what others are using. Required items are Roon, Auro3d, and xlrs.

I lined the inside of one of my k402MEH cabinets, and it did seam to make a difference on rapping the cabinet with your k uckles, but as far as audible change...no IMO. Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk

I just got my copper plate installed for the MEHs. Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk

I had a friend poke the holes for me. On the next set I will do them. Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk

My wife does not like my k402 MEHs...so I made grills for them and now they are more acceptable to her. The other night she actually listened to them, and said they really sound good. Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk

Thanks for the info, Chris! Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk

What about using a pair of 15" passive radiators on a MEH? Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk

Mine sound pretty damn good in a brick room, stone floors, an d a concave brick ceiling. All I have is a large rug., and no other treatments. Now in my room I am going to make acoustic panels, as I have found in the past they can make a bigger improvement than buying new equipment. In addition they allow you to reach the full potential of your equipment. Plus a lot cheaper than buying more equipment. Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk

I would get a minidsp 2x4, and use it for 4 subs...since you are going to want to tune them indidvidually too. Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk

That is from the one I made in 2017. Hopefully I will get the bendable plywood in a week or two. The picture shows how I made the mounting plate for the compression driver, and I think I will do it the same as it is much easier to install the driver. In addition I plan on marking the square opening of the throat and blending it to the 2" driver size. Sent from my SM-G985F using Tapatalk

I think the curved flare can be made removable...I would french the screw holes just a bit, and make the horn 3/4" thick at least at the part the curved flair would attach. I believe it will be 60 degree for the horn pattern. Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk

I wish I could...it was 4 years ago and we only had time to listen to it once, and all we had done was cross it over at 500hz. Also we used round ports instead of oval ports. All I can remember is it sounded better than a modified La Scala except at one frequency which it seemed strange (which we were thinking was around the crossover frequency).
