Albert - I was reading the Dali website and they say that the way that the spekaers work mean that they image much better than conventional speakers and they are far less affected by room coloratio...

Sophia is now repaired and I'm just starting to listen. It does sound bright on congested material down to many things - the Krell and Wilsons are unforgiving anyway, I have slap echo like crazy an...

I didn't realise the AR3 could do 2.1 - I assume the LFE crossover is set really low since you are not short of bass from the X2s. Volcanoes and earthquakes only?I seem to imagine your Krel...

Do you use your Krell HTS as a full time preamp? If not, when you listen to 2-channel do you skip the XS ? (Which would be a terrible shame! )Next Q - did you audition the Krell Master Ref ...

Nope I got a bargain on a pair of series one - they should arrive in the UK on Wednesday, but when customs release them is a different matter. I'm pretty sure you are right about the 2.1 not having...

Thanks for your response. It seems my best method then is to buy the speakers first and when I can afford, demo both sets of amps to see how I fair.Kind regardsDavid
