Description

All new room and modified system to fit the room. Converted the garage to a dedicated music room with remote AC system, completely dedicated 10 foot ground spike and dedicated circuits. GIK treatments throughout (diffusion on the ceilings and absorption everywhere else) has made the system sing.

And thank you to the following Audiogon gurus: SKushino, Syntax and Halcro.

Jeff1225, wondering if the SIT-1 will match well with my 97db efficient horn.
Does the SIT-1 have more resolution than the J2 or just a bigger soundstage?

Jeff1225, Just received a brand new j2. How long was the break in period? Already noticing natural warmth and smooth realism. I'm using the J2 on 97db efficient horns. I see you also had experience with the SIT-1. How did you like the SIT-1 vs J2? Thanks
