Surprisingly Dermot things are strangely quiet here. The rads are out of the box and working. Not sure if it is just shock or is there a scheme afoot to have them removed asap. I am watching my back and wearing my motorcycle crash helmet as a sensible precaution unfortunately this means I cant hear a thing.cybot wrote:You will when your better half discovers the radiators lol :)))))) And you'll be doing it out on the street too :)tony wrote:I hope I dont look like that when dancing to my favourite song from sesame street

I dont want to say too much yet in case I am made bring them back to Kettering. Suffice to say I am delighted. They have the OTA treble panels which are brighter and more detailed than the original quad panels. The room is not ideal yet as I am still a bit close to them but to my novice ears I think I have something good. Being honest the spendors were very nice with the jadis also. I will need to switch back to reassess at some point.

The joys of demoing ;) At least in your case you get to keep both pairs! And the lovely wife too lol
Re: Enjoying your speakers
The speakers will take some time to "settle in" - the amp too I imagine. I know it's the black arts and grown men should know better but valve amps and electrostatic speakers are almost organic in the way they become unsettled when moved about.tony wrote: The room is not ideal yet as I am still a bit close to them but to my novice ears I think I have something good.

You might consider firing them down the other direction in the room? Speakers at the window or opposite wall? That would give you more space.
Vinyl -anything else is data storage.
