babadono Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 As I alluded to in CC and C thread yesterday these things are making sweet sounds in my man cave. Thanks to @MetropolisLakeOutfitters, @Trentster5172, @Chris A everyone at Klipsch and Assoc. Hope AR and most especially to @Chief bonehead. I've got more fine tuning to do. Chris I have the UMIK and a microphone stand but still waiting for a laptop(guess I have to order one before it will show up). I will get back to you when I get it. But so far the settings for the TADs sound pretty darn good to me. Also I have some veneering to do. And cable routing and clean up etc...etc....Oh and listening. Forgot, thanks @cincymat for the XP 4080 16 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bought the TADs used a couple years ago from TrueHeartSound on ebay when he was trying to get rid of like 20(?) pairs. Then you remember my thread recently dissecting them to make sure they had beryllium diaphragms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators dtel Posted April 30, 2018 Moderators Share Posted April 30, 2018 Hate to be the one to say it but that's an awfully fancy man cave. Â Love the rack with all the D-75's, I like the way they sound, and Tad's, you just went straight to the top, no playing around. Very Nice, glad you got them going. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The D-75s are running the TADs one each in bridged(mono) mode, so I am only using two of them so far. You can hardly tell they're on. The 402/TADs will blow you out of the room before any registering on the signal indicator. But thanks for reminding me.... @John Warren the D75s I was modding are making sound now. I am no amplifier connoisseur but they sound pretty all right to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coytee Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Guys guys guys.... Â Should we tell him that his speakers aren't facing the listening position or should we let him hear how good they sound, then tell him and blow his mind?

I used ChrisA's settings for TADs just to get up and running. I know I have adjusting to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
