After work tomorrow is unboxing and installation!
I know you said Saturday, just pulling your leg.
They really tie the room together
So your wife bought you speakers for her birthday? Chapeau, sir!
I can remember when I opened the boxes
Much joy Iā:hugs:
Youāll probably fit the feet with the cabinet standing upside down. Just be mindful when bolting the feet on that itās easy to lose a bolt or Allen key down one of the ports. Stuff some big woolly socks or jumpers in them as you do it.
I can confirm that this is good advice
What, woolly jumpers are good advice?
Duh ! Speakers not cartridges
Ah yes, that was it!
Just about Saturday
Only just!
They required a major restructuring of my system!
Edit: my room isnāt that big, just took the photo in wide angle!
Looks great! I love your Air France poster
Looking good.
So? ?
Loving them, was up till 3am last night listening, which hasnāt happened for a long while.
The soundstage is massive, something I never got the Triangles to manage, but in their defence, they never had any room around them. Iāve been forced to create that room for the Hecos, with the extra width they simply didnāt fit with my system configured as it was.
Now pissing about with toe in &c.
Found if they havenāt been used for a while and itās cold,they need a mini run in of 12-24 hours. Thought the pair I had were broken as they didnāt sound great,following day they sounded very good
Mine sounded a bit thin for the first album, but as Iād also swapped in the Arion Adonis which hadnāt been used for ages I put it down to that needing to warm through properly.
Second album in sounded great and so has everything since. Think Iāve dropped on to a nice little combination here.
Chuffed for you Rob.
They are far and away the best investment I (well Anne ) has made in any bit of equipment.
I recently moved mine to square on and prefer them like that now but Iām probably a bit more near field than yours.
Iāve just turned them to almost square on rather than toeing in to point directly my listening position and I think I might agree with you.
As soon as I moved slightly I was losing the imaging. Now theyāre more forgiving, but still with the wide soundstage.
My head is about 8ā from the speakers, so still relatively near field.
