    Guys time to let it go a bit, he's now getting advice over at the Emotiva forum:rolleyes:

    And while some of those guys know what's going on, most are a little clueless when it comes to really nice gear and synergy. For most over there it's all about watts, and that couldn't be farther from the truth.

    He will have to find his own path, by himself.

    1. You tried the Marantz as a receiver and a pre. We told you it would sound thin. Fail

    2. So you tried a Carver CT6 that we said would sound bad. With the Emo amp. Fail

    3. You tried a Carver amp that had just been fixed and sold it just as it was coming into it's own. Fail.

    4. Your room is not ideal for these speakers but like you said you did move them into a more ideal position, all the while shaking the filling out of your neighbors teeth.

    Did I miss anything?

    You have failed way more times than most around here. So when you go around giving advice on speakers, can you now see why we defend it.

    And I think you have those speakers wired wrong if you think the TL mod is more forward than the original crossover.

    Unbelievable!

    Talk about selective reading :rolleyes:

    Ah, the beauty of the ignore list. Nice knowing you audio. You're now relegated to a highly select group of invisible (to me) idiots. Bye.....

    Haha, that I can get under your skin that much amazes me. What's even more amazing is that I was put on your block list but somehow you keep reading and responding to my posts :biggrin:

    Just FYI guys, I'm enjoying some music now. That's what it's all about. Do whatever you want. Flame me until your hearts content. Just know I'll not be losing any sleep and enjoying music on my constantly insulted system in my atrocious room that's not good enough.

    The first post in this thread pretty much sums it up.

    http://emotivalounge.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=xpa2&action=display&thread=11669

    It's the difference between a decent piece of gear and a really nice piece of gear. This is the type of stuff I'm always trying to convey when I mention getting better gear and moving up the line. It's not about being elitest, it's about there being real differences

    60wpc vs 300wpc. It's not about raw wattage. Never has been, never will be.

    Anyway, sorry for the derail.

    They can read your posts because I quoted them.

    To the Original poster I apologize for the derail.
