Matthews Posted July 3, 2020 Author Share Posted July 3, 2020 After a little tuning, the 1st song I listened to was Southern Cross by Crosby Stills & Nash. The hair stood on the back of my neck as I was swept away in the pure warmth and thunder of me new 2-channel rig 🥰 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I e heard those onkyos so that’s what I go with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MookieStl Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Glad you still have them. I knew you had gone the CF3 & 4 route and was afraid these would have to move on again. Hope they work out in your office. I would definitely do a cross over refresh first and go from there. It is time.They aren't any fun to get out of that cabinet though. Good luck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
