Direct Coupled Drivers Vs Crossover
I was trying to say the same early on, apparently not as eloquently. But I couldn't have agreed more. Yet again, the solution points towards high efficiency, preferably 2-way speakers and low power tube amplification, like it was done 60 years ago. Ain't that a full circle. Taken me 20 years of...- Maril555

Direct Coupled Drivers Vs Crossover
Clarification: I didnt use DSP, I was referring to fully analog active x-over, Pass Labs XVR-1- Maril555

Lamm ML3 + LL1, at last!
Same goes for the parallel discussion on the "Absolute Nothing" TT. Opinions based on "absolutely nothing" issued by people who have very limited to no information on the design and the implementation, and NEVER hearing TT in person. Truly astonishing.- Maril555

Direct Coupled Drivers Vs Crossover
In theory, active x-over and multiple dedicated amplifiers driving corresponding drivers seems to be a superior solution, but in practice results might be different. In solving one set of problems, it's likely introduces a different set of issues. I have used both and ended up with a passive 1st...- Maril555

That's correct Peter. I was there with the owner at Vlad's place when the deal was negotiated and most certainly David had not been part of that deal . And to the best of my recollection that was before he ever met David the first time, and before he got his Kharmas.- Maril555

Seeking recommendation for SUT to suit high impedance cartridges
The main principle in choosing SUT is to match cartridge impedance and SUT primary impedance. In your case- 38 Ohm and 50 Ohm, the SUT with corresponding approx. 40 Ohms primary will be 1:10. I had used Kiseki cart with 40 Ohms internal impedance and Ypsilon made a 1:10 SUT for me Coincidentally...- Maril555

Does DSP belong in State of the Art Systems?
They stopped making XVR-1 because they ran out of some critical parts that couldn’t be obtained from another supplier. I’ve had one and when wanted to buy a second unit, that’s what Kent English told me.- Maril555

Agree I’m happy with it now I might try Auva b/w the bass cabinet and the multicell horn- Maril555

EMT - JSD series Carts
By coincidence, I have Ypsilon MC-10L for sale on Audiomart It is a fantastic SUT, I have used it with Kiseki Purple Heart that has 40 Ohms internal impedance, similar to EMT- Maril555
