The Aktiv cards have level adjustments for the treble. The treble may be attenuated. The adjustment should be marked on the cards. It starts at 0 and goes up to +9 db. Hope this helps.
linn passive to aktiv, confused
i recently changed my linn passive system (genki, kolektor, lk140, ninka, single wire) to aktiv (added an lk140). i hardly recognize my system it sounds so different. there is much less treble, more bass and it seems to resonate in the room more. the texture is perhaps a little more gritty, however also more detailed. the treble is more transparent, but also sounds receded to me.
i switched the boards on the back of the speakers; does the orientation of the lower (hidden) board matter? the treble says "reverse polarity" and i hooked up + and - marked on the speaker consistent with the amp.
these are all used components and should not require a "burn in" period, right? or do i just need to get used to it? the bottom line is the speakers are more impressive technically to my ear but possibly less musical. it still sounds incredible compared to anything else i have owned.
comments? thanks!
