Could we get a group of all IRS Beta owners?


Just thinking of a group where we could share tips/tricks on them and keeping them in tip top shape.

Also, info on parts/service providers for updates and upgrades.

@stephens770 thanks.  I started at 8' and now down to 70".  Referring to the wings - bass are at 60" and outside of the mid/high.  Going to try the Genesis recommended layout with the bass towers inside of the mid/high.

Just experimenting!

@ervikingo Added another system pic of current Beta set up. It’s a second system on the sidewall now. In my experience, these don’t have to be off the wall very far. 2-3 feet has worked well for me. I’ve tried as much as 6-8 feet in prior set up with no huge benefit, so prefer to have the extra space in the room. I’ve pieced together a second system for them now after sitting dormant for a while. 

Wondering if Dirac via MiniDSP (installed right before the Servo Controller) or a BACCH would compliment the Betas?

I appreciate thoughts.

@ervikingo Beautiful room and set up!! Very nice. When I ran the multi-Beta set up they all ran through a Legacy Wavelet that I had Legacy set up specifically for the system. It worked well, but the best sound I've experienced through many many set ups and changes with the Betas is running them off of a set of Mac MC901's. Perfect! Honorable mention goes to a pair of MC 275's with a pair of Bryston 7B's. The 275's sounded sweeter and better than the 2301's on them. SS on the high side of the Betas doesn't work well in my opinion unless it's class A from a Tube Pre which is what I'm working on now. I've got an intermittent noise issue with my amp, but when there's no noise it's rivaling the 901's.
