L-250's ti upgrades...

[lpd]

Here's a couple pic of my new L-250's with TI tweeters, but standard paper cones. Sound great, really smooth on the top end.

We have almost identical L250's - rosewood and no grilles. Too bad we're a continent apart - I'd like to hear the difference between them. I have the 104H poly upper mid but the standard 044 tweeter. I see you're running tubes but I'm not sure from the picture what they are. I'm still stuck on big transistor power that rattles the cabinets two rooms away :-). Probably can't touch the warm sound of the tubes tho...

I have the grills for mine as well. I'm using Quicksilver KT88 monoblocks but the top end seems a little bland for my tastes, so I might go back to ss power. The tubes with the 4333's were nice.

Hello lpd,
Looks very nice,
You've one big Stone Underside:D
Did you check biamp with ss amps before?
I think the bassspeaker is a beast.
Now, I've a Tubepreamp and ss amp for my 250ti.
In the Future I'll check biamp.

I think about two smaller ones:)

Nice clean looking gear there. I hooked my Threshold S-150 to the 250's and now they are singing. The Threshold has a velvet like midrange and really great low end. I might drop the mid/high on the networks to tame the top end a notch, but I'm interested how this affects the frequencies?

Yes lpd, I think also, this is a good combination:cool:

Well, before adjusting the networks I adjusted the placement of the speakers and was quite suprised. I moved them further apart and not only did the soundstage open up, but the top end blended in well. I find the bass very transparent.
