MEH Synergy Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 The mids, I'm guessing you love them or hate them based on my experience with them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEH Synergy Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Yes. I have them ample break in time at volume. Around 2k or so from what I remember would make me cringe more often than I cared to. I tried two different amps and cabling combos and the problem remained. Firing them straight as Shakey suggested helped a lot, but did not eliminate what I strongly disliked about them. Other than that, they were FANTASTIC speakers IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEH Synergy Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 No. I loved the Cornwalls and the heresys. I think it is the mid horn/crossover (my best guess). Also maybe my room didn't allow me to pull them far enough apart. Roughly 7 feet is all I had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avguytx Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 You had to pull them out 7 feet into the room? Yeah, those would never work for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEH Synergy Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Haha no. I had them spaced 7 feet apart. Also based on shakeys advice, I found that plus or minus 18 inches from the back wall worked very well for solid, Extended bass in my room. Spaced about a foot from each side wall. That was the best sound I got from them in my room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalifornian Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Im running mine directly off my Marantz SR7012 and after Audyssey setup they sound phenom. With certain poorly mastered songs it can get too revealing but that's not the speakers fault... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
