3 ways to climb Everest

Looks like the Pass Labs XP-30. Makes my XP-20 look puny!

I thought I read something about my Plimsoll Line ...
anyway, my motto
"If you wanna play, you gotta pay."

[Mr. Widget]

"If you wanna play, you gotta pay."

That usually is the case... though simply paying and paying isn't always the best way to play.

I'd suggest while your level of expenditure is orders of magnitude greater than the average forum member's, from what I can see you've made rational choices.

For those of us who appreciate this stuff vicariously, would you mind describing your current signal chain in some detail?

You are right Widget !

Including your home address, the code to your burglar alarm system, and your home's floor plan? I like to appreciate stuff vicariously in person... if you know what I mean.

Priceless!

Is it in response two the reaction towards the two swedes who made joke on Twitter?

And btw, you forgot NSA.

New 2nd Project, changes to crossover

[vivaregina]

The mid horn crossover

[vivaregina]

Take out the wires to the lower crossovers, meaning take out the front binding posts, but keeping the 9V batteries

[vivaregina]

Change value of R8 reisitor from 3 Ohm to 2.7 Ohm to lower the brightness.
As recommended by Mr. G.T.

[vivaregina]

Kiwame Carbon Film resistor.
The sound is smoother, less nervous around the 2k Hz region.
Previously it was a little more metallic, more glare.
I was skeptical before the change, but I heard it on the 2nd pair, and went for it.
I would say the change improved the character of the speakers.

an acoustic engineer said I should read more

[vivaregina]

The crossover set up is back to the original GT concept of 750Hz fed into the 150Hz cut, so I am running bass output of XVR1 back into input of second XVR1, instead of slave direct from pre amp.

The frequencies for voltage match is 1k Hz and 50 Hz. Make sure you adjust the main woofer first, as that will affect the 2nd woofer if it is hooked up as above.

For those who are following the internal changes very closely, for the HF schematic, the Red wire is connected to the WHITE position on internal circuit, so you bypass C1 and C2 both 47uF capacitors.

I have to ask, are these the actual crossovers from the 66000?

[4313B]

Yep.
