Can't speak to the issue of personal mental health, but I will report for duty at Mike's this weekend...for the purely altruistic purpose of informing the WBF community!!![]()
Hah! Altruistic!...we are all going to hold you to that...you BETTER post! and lots of it for those who cannot be there to listen!
There is no 'I' in team![]()
i've been avoiding audiophile 'sounds' demo discs. however, i just played one of the true torture tests of bass impact, extension, and tonality and overall energy. 'paramita', He Xun Tain, CD. track 7, Earth Drums. it's a 7 minute endurance test for a system and one's ears and comfort. i've heard it on many systems. i did not use an SPL meter, but likely in the 100-110 db range (maybe higher on peaks) i would guess with walloping deep impactful bass with a high energy pace.
like a warm knife thru butter. child's play. the MM7's simply smirked and did not even breathe hard. total coherence, not a trace of hardness or compression. sledge-hammer impact, but perfectly controlled, both the leading edge, impact, and release. the nuance and micro-dynamics of each note was natural and complete. nice decay and ambience. totally effortless.
even the dart stereo 108 was not even stressed at all only having a 96db, 6 ohm load to deal with. the only limitation was my tolerance for pain. unfortunately us humans cannot endure what might test this beast.
---- Ok ok ok, I want those, I want it all! :b ...How much for all of that?
I'm sold, you did it!
Ya I agree WOW! When do your Dart mono's arive.
Wow , serious there Mike , have you tried moving them around yet ? Maybe a bit back and over from the mains...
Regards ,
OH EM GEE is right! Stunning...congratz and enjoy. Any chance you can put up a vid?
Cheers,

---- That, and is this just too much speaker for one person? :b
That is a grand speaker, Mike. Congratulations. They look like they were built for your room. With the 458s this is destined to become something really special. What are your thoughts on cables for this system. I know its early.
Thanks,
Roysen
Congrats Mike. Can you also describe how ceramic and non ceramic drivers performs together in coherence and the difference in bass articulation?
A belated congrats on receiving your towers! Once your monoblocks arrive, you'll be in music-lover heaven (if you aren't there already)!
