    The 1Cs are back in the rig. Audyssey run. Wow...I made the right decision. The amount of slam these guys add to home theater is astonishing. I watched The A Team last night on the 90s and it was very good and a surprisingly entertaining movie. Today, after trying out various music pieces, I slipped in the movie again. Again, wow...not only to the bass, but each dynamic hit and crescendo has real impact...forgot what I was missing. Musically, the 1Cs are more laid back, the tweeter is less sparkley and less fruity, but the overall presentation is well, SDA like. I really liked the 90s, they imaged better and had better interior resolution, but now drumsets sound like they are in the room, the dynamics and wall to wall soundstage trump that. Back to normal again :smile:.
