Direct Coupled Drivers Vs Crossover
If you get the Wavelet II, best to discuss with Legacy if given specs for you speakers (and possibly other info), if there are custom target functions for the ideal performance of the speaker in room that they would need to create algos for.

Direct Coupled Drivers Vs Crossover
@Kingrex Rex, There's the older Wavelet and newer Wavelet II; the latter is what I would definitely recommend to use now as it has an much more capable DAC and 64-bit DSP versus the prior version 56-bit. Either Wavelet is primarily a digital device. It does have 2 XLR analog inputs and 2...- SCAudiophile

Direct Coupled Drivers Vs Crossover
Possibly to keep cost down versus the generally more costly Class A or Class AB alternatives. Also, if building internally, there may be space and weight considerations (and cost) that make Class D a better option.- SCAudiophile

Built for the love of music...
Thank you very much! Prior to the Typhon T2-30amp, I always ran all amps (in speaker and external) direct to the wall. This T2-30amp unit is the first conditioner that has ever impressed me enough to change that so yes, all are running through the T2, 2.2 kW worth in each speaker, plus both...- SCAudiophile

Shunyata Interconnects
I've owned a long list of high-end 50-ohm and in the distant past, 75-ohm cables for clock connections, additionally more 75-ohm S/PDIF and 110-ohm AES cables for both HT and 2ch purposes. Omega has given me, hands down, the most musically accurate, natural, tonally accurate and dynamic results...- SCAudiophile

Burn in for me was progressive and I don't recall any setbacks/regressions. Due to the KPIP process helping the initial hours of break in, they will sound quite good out of the box (if brand new) and then start to manifest themselves more after 1-4 days (what happened here, others may differ in...- SCAudiophile

Shunyata Grounding System
Absolutely agreed,...if the manufacturer saw fit to not provide a connection to earth ground at the IEC level, for whatever reason, do not ground that device. I believe this includes both chassis as well as signal ground (consult with Shunyata/other expert for confirmation). For the avoidance...- SCAudiophile
