Was anyone else as impressed by these speakers at HE 2004 as I was? I thought their performance was stupendous, and can only wonder what the bigger models sound like.

Just got a pair, and am breaking them in this week. Ihave a Gamut D200 amp, which has two sets of output terminals. The manual says you can use both in a biwire setup, taking the "direct" set for the tweeter/mids, and the "filtered" set for the woofers. Now I need to buy MORE new wires!!!
It never ends!!

Tvad,
Do you mean fromyour reply that the woofer wire is less critical than the tweeter wire, or that HD 12 or Canare would be fine for both?.

I currently have a Blue Heaven single wire, as well as a set of inexpensive Rapport wires that I'm trying as a biwire. I'd forgotten Gamut's biwire capability , and VSA recommends a shotgun system as giving the best sound, leaving the link wire out. I will be trying that as soon as the speakers have some hours on them.

I am just past the 100 hour mark and am very pleased. The bass has really tightened up and the midrange is really filling out. I am dialing in the placement (with my dealers help) and just added the lead shot. I anticipate putting the spikes on in the next week. I really love these speakers. I have a single pair of wires (Kimber 8TC going to the M/T unit and a pair of jumpers made from the same wire going from the M/T unit to the bass unit. Works great!
