Re: SDA sound taking some getting used to.
I spent about $575 just on the parts (including binding posts, though) to rebuild the crossovers in my much simpler, red-headed stepchild RTA 15TLs a couple of years ago now and I continue to be blown away by their sound. Even if it is $300-$400 per speaker for the DIY cost, I would think the 1Cs would be worthy of the expense. Another ~$600-ish, total, for the VR3 plug-and-play version (if you get a discount by not going direct and not through eBay) doesn't seem out of line, either.

Re: SDA sound taking some getting used to.
The @VR3 XO also has much better inductors. The Jantzen C-coils are not cheap and are fantastic inductors. The Supra Rondo wire is also more than a few dollars. There are more than a few man hours in his work.
To have a plug and play install XO is awful nice ☺️ they're no shortcuts in his work.

There was definitely coke and meth involved in this.
And regret the next morning. Deep, shameful regret.

Re: Synergistic Research: What are your thoughts?
The real question people have to ask is how a small company can develop ground breaking technology on fuses every single year?
Since I tried them a while back I bet they have released 4 more models at ever increasing price points.
Truly wild!
If I wanted to worry about fuses, I would get a swiss digital fuse box and use slugs in the place of the fuse. There are not many small companies that produce their own fuses.

I assume they just did a swap; now the shower's in the basement.

Re: Linear Tube Audio Z40+ Integrated Amplifier
Will interesting to hear what you think of the different tubes you roll. I’ve already mentioned this to you, but I really like the looks of it. It seems to a combination of simplistic design (which I love), with a bit of style with the gold buttons and digital volume display.
One thing is certain, you’ve had enough gear through your place that you know what you like and what you don’t. I’m big enough to admit to some jealousy😁
