    Evolution Acoustics MMMicroOne loudspeakers

    Hello HedgeHog, The MM-1's are part of my "small system" as I'm living in a smaller apartment temporarily; my main system back home in the US is on my system page. I use the Exposere 2010S2 integrated amp (75W) with my TW Acustic Raven AC / Triplanar-7 / Transfiguration Orpheus (original...

    Evolution Acoustics MMMicroOne loudspeakers

    I have the speakers now for about 4 months with maybe about 70 hours of break-in. They have defintely improved over this time. Less boxy sounding, the highs have mellowed but still retain their pristine clarity and the bass has become fuller. they are a very dynamic, high resolution and...

    Evolution Acoustics MMMicroOne loudspeakers

    Hello Folks, The equipment posted on my info page is my main system which I have been using at home in the USA prior to my arrival in Japan for a 2 year assignment. As this gear is large and heavy, since I didn't want to deal with re-configuring the power supplies, and since my room is...

    Evolution Acoustics MMMicroOne loudspeakers

    I'm a recent owner of the MM MicroOne. I think Jonathan's tactic in his comment above reagrding keeping the Magico Q1 and any other 20K speaker is a double-edged sword. Comparing the MMM-1 (MM MicroOne) to the Magico Q1 is a smart move on Jonathan's part because if his speaker approahes or...

    Integrated amp suggestions

    I second the Exposure 2010S recoomedation. I use the S2 version in my mini Japan system, and it offer incredible value and performance. A very clear, neutral and detailed Integrated. Very little hints of its SS nature. Highly recoomended!

    Turntable Mats

    cjfrbw, Interesting feedback and I agree that it is tough to recommend one solution for all. Also, in my comment of trying to achieve a flat fequency response, I essentially was trying to say (which you did a good job of) avoid being underdamped or overdamped. Incidentally, I'm also using...

    Turntable Mats

    There are basically two schools of though on this. 1) Decoupling the record from the platter, 2) dampening the record vibrations which usually involves the dampening of the record and stronger coupling to the platter. the former is mostly to prevent platter vibrations from affecting the record...
