Stick the boxes centrally on top of your speaker lining up the fronts - Switch the lasers and discover your ‘by eye’ method you’ve been proud of was: A) cock eyed B) Damed eyed or C) Eagle eyed.

  • Special Delivery (Either back to me or to the next happy faffer)

If more than one person wants a whirl you will ship to the next person S.D and so on - If the batteries go on your watch, you get to sort it. If they break, you get a bill, lost in the post? - claim on Special delivery. Lurkers be damned.

Personally I thought I had mine dialed in, it turns out I thought this about 4 years ago and things get knocked / budged whatever and mine were quite out of whack. It took me 2 mins to discover this with this bullshit. It would probably have taken an afternoon of OCD otherwise.

I suck at reviews - so you can read more here: https://theaudiophileman.com/kalsus/

*If any particularly afflicted OCD brethren are interested Pt 2 will be Turntable set up bullshit rental.

Nor that!

Were your speakers miles out

7

Is this the one off eBay, that just went “OUT OF STOCK”?

The lasers showed things had gone quite askew. Listening after adjustment there was a clear audible improvement. Would be handy when doing shows too I guess.

Make sure the Tenas are nice and snug before opening this then

My lasers are on p5 and p8.

I need a voltmeter on a stick.

I’d like to have a go, but a bit pointless as there is no where else for the speakers to go

I’d be curious. Though mine slide about on a board and are never “fixed” as I move them out for extended listening.

I’d take advantage of this, but in a week or so as I’m away next week.

It’s about position relative to your listening position. (Angle of toe in particularly) Mine looked right but were out

15

Yes, sadly I can’t toe them in any more, still like to have a go at somepoint though

16

Im game to try these at some point…

In the post, then off to @SAP7 ?

Assuming Steve doesn’t mind the delay (?) Darren (@Turningjapanese) may be interested in trying and as he is only 20 mins away I could drop off…?
If not I can post Monday…
Ive time this weekend for a right faff so with a bit of luck they will arrive in time for the party-just wondering if there is a strobe setting? :man_dancing:

I am moving at some point in the future
(When all the stars align)
This would be brilliant for setting up in a new room

I don’t mind. I just want to faff for the sake of a faff.
Back of the queue suits me ok.
