Powering Infinity Prelude MTS

Hey guys,
Just a follow up after finding out about line vs speaker level input.

Got and email response from Harman...

They confirmed what ya'll said.
Makes no difference whether feeding the Preludes line or speaker level. They both go through the sub's amps.

Thought that was nice of Harman. I actually got a personal response from one of the designers of the Prelude MTS'!

Thanks again for ya'lls input.

Thanks for the update. These are extremely good speakers. It's a shame that Harman quit making them.

Is thre any way to power the subs with external amps?

I don't believe so, but I've never tried.

Hi

Im jumping on this thread because its hard to find other Prelude MTS owners. I've never likes the sound of the preludes and was hoping for your feedback...

My two primary complaints are:
1) high-end is very bright
2) difficult to optimally place towers when on subs as subs perform better in different locations.

I listen and measure frequency response with REW (mic and frequency sweeps that show frequency and time domain measurements, often used for room correction and/or digital x/o).

My related components are: "audiophile" pc Jriver MC playing redbook, 24/192 and DSD files -> firewire -> Mytek 8x192 m-ch Pro DAC -> Lexicon MC12 in analog bypass mode (to only use volume control) -> Theta Dreadnought m-ch amp

Do any of you share my feeling of overly bright and imperfect integration of sub with tower?

Thanks in advance!!
