3 ways to climb Everest

[Guido]

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

Interesting project!

The 2.7 ohms for R8 is exactly what I came up with in my clones. I did a few other mods but they of course are not recomended by G.T.
I'll post the schematics in my DD66000 clone thread when I'm done with modding

You know you can put some low value resistors in series with one leg of some L-Pads on all those notches and dial them in on the fly. Once you get them dialed in for your room just substitute in the actual resistor values.

So, here is the Question …
What do you do after climbing the Everest ?
Well, I decided to go deep, deep Ocean, … Ocean Way.

I had expected the bass performance of the Everest to be out gunned by these big boys. 50% taller and deeper. I was so surprised the Everest matched its deep, clear, loud, distortion free bass. I think it was because of the independent one 600W mono amp per 15 inch driver.

The current set up of the Everest with the 300W stereo for the top, could be the weak link, vs the great Viola Audio Labs amps used to drive Ocean Way HR2 monitor system. Absolute respect for Tom Colangelo, even from the days of the ML2. His legacy lives on in these great amps.

I know what I am going to be lifting this summer.
Viola Cadenza and Legacy amps, Nagra PLP, and an absolutely delicious CH Precision CD player http://ch-precision.com/site/

The designer of the Everest II didn't seem too impressed. He asked me if it was photoshopped.

Obviously people can do whatever they want (and quite often do, lol) but that's a whole chunk of change to be turning upsidedown and stacking. To each their own.
