    Maybe it's the system getting back at you for over loading it with all those orders you got (and are probably still getting) for ring's and tweeter bracket's.:tongue:

    Wait until Summer :biggrin:. My Aleph, which I'm sure puts out less heat, can raise room temp by 3-5* and that's in a large room open on both ends.

    "OK" I have still yet had the chance to put my SDA's to the test on these amps but I have been chillin to Diana Krall The Girl in the other Room SACD and I will say these A9's are a fantastic speaker with the right amps.

    Her voice is so beautiful I can hear her lips smack, The cymbals are so clean and detailed the piano is right in my livingroom. This is amazing the sound I have right now is beyond anything I could have imagined. I cannot wait to have the SDA's on these..

    Absolutely Incredible!!!!!!
