    Michael, thank you!  For all the doubters, this is very real.  PLEASE take care of yourselves and your families.  Follow all the protocols to prevent infection. I cannot confirm I have it, but whatever I have I don't wish it upon my worst enemy.  Fortunately, I am pretty healthy, eat well and don't have any underlying conditions.  Keep tabs on your family's temperature.  Keep Tylenol on hand for fever control and get yourself a pulse-ox monitor (little finger tester they use at doc office) in case anyone gets infected.  That is how you will monitor your loved ones. If you can find a forehead thermometer, get one. 

     

    I take all the prayers I can get.  I have an army of wonderful people pulling for me.  All our neighbors and friends have been just amazing. I am so proud to be an American and see 'We The People" rise to the occasion.  I'm hopeful I'll recover soon. As I told a friend, regardless of what happens....I WIN!

     

    Sorry to get off topic, and now....back to our regularly scheduled program.

    Get well soon, I know all of us here wish you a fast and speedy recovery our thoughts are with you and your family

    Hi All,

    So after experiencing what the minidsp could do, I went ahead and pulled the trigger and purchased a Xilica XP4080, which finally arrived today and with Chris A's help I'm already starting to dial in the unit, 

     

    I will report back hopefully soon on the differences if any, and thanks to Chris and Dave A for the recommendation, I'm sure I will appreciate the upgrade 

     

    Cheers

    I would just like to say a very special thank you to Chris A for helping on a journey that has produced the most incredible sound from my Klipsch La Scala II's, the man is a true gentleman and has the patience of a Saint 

     

    I was very nervous about disconnecting my drivers from the crossover and had apprehension regarding dialing in the Minidsp 10x10hd, I had previously tried Dirac live and was not impressed by the change 

     

    However having the offer from Chris A to help dial everything in and accurately time aligne and set all output channels and EQ settings was a blessing 

     

    Without his knowledge I would never ever have taken the route of active crossovers 

     

    Chris, thank you again your knowledge and help will never be forgotten you have helped me taken my listening pleasure to a complete new level of clarity and emotion

    Active Crossover Recommendations

    in 2-Channel Home Audio

    Posted

    Hi Gents, 

     

    Just wanted to ask if anyone has the crossover settings for active digital crossovers settings for Klipsch La Scala II's , I have rencenty acquired a mini dsp 10x10hd and have connected all the drivers and all is good, Chris A has helped me get into this and so far I'm very happy with the potential I'm hearing 

     

    I'm currently awaiting delivery of UMIK-1 and will then take measurements via REW and Chris A has very generously offered to help with all the settings however as I'm awaiting delivery I currently don't have any music and the weekend is here and need my tunes 

     

    So Just wanted to ask if anyone has the crossover settings for the Klipsch La Scala IIs when using an active crossover setup 

     

    Thanks in advance 

     

    And thanks again to Chris A for his amazing help and knowledge, you help is extremely appreciated

    Hey guys im thinking of maybe going down the active or passive crossover road

     

    What would you guys recommend and has anyone tried this route before with any of the heritage range of speakers

     

    Cheers

    I just noticed I hit 6,000 posts last night. Not that anyone but me should care, but I'm thinking this is a milestone. Hope I have been helpful here.
    Well done Sir, indeed a mile stone, and many more posts to come, I hope [emoji16]

    Thanks Deano.  After listening to the GL 12ax7 gold pins 30 plus hrs I rolled the Audcom original Chinese 12ax7's back in.  Everything seemed louder.  I listened though a few songs before deciding even thou they are very good, they are not as enjoyable to listen to as the Gold Lion's.  I think the GL 12ax7 is a tab warmer making it easy on the ear.    The two tubes are close,but the clear winner is the Gold  Lion.     
    I agree the Gold Lions seem alot more natural to me, and they dont have the fatiguing harshness that many other tubes seem to have, im really enjoying them and can see myself using these for a long long time

    Im spending alot more time in the listening room now since installing the GL's so that tells me alot

    Enjoy brother enjoy!

    Cheers

    Deano

    Your correct they are very smooth, at first my initial thought was they sound a little loose, but they definitely tighten up alot, and bass becomes realy nice,

    I was using the 12au7 primaluna tubes and thought they were a little harsh on the top, the Gold Lions solved this issue and added a little more substance

    They are very nice and im really happy with them
