I sure hope so. Having something like that sitting idle is a crime.

Hi Joey, unfortunately no. I'm still waiting to get my Dealer's help to re-set the Cerabase feet under my small rack so they're set correctly, and help me move some heavy gear. He recently became a Dad, so I understand his time is very limited. I just have to be patient..Have you heard them yet? -
Everything happens for a reason as they say. I have been using my time to get other projects done which have been on the back burner. Look on the bright side they say. I guess having waited so long to hear the wonderful S5 Mk2's, I will appreciate them so much more when they do finally singI sure hope so. Having something like that sitting idle is a crime.. -
To each their own. At the very least, playing the speakers would be breaking them in. After your dealer does the setup then you would be able to make a fair and accurate assessment as to whether it improved, degraded, or made no difference.
Anyway, enjoy whenever you get to them.

Yessir.... I say do eet!Magico M2, JL113v2x2, EMM, ARC Ref 10 Line, ARC Ref 10 Phono, VPIx2, Lyra Etna, Airtight Opus1, Boulder, AQ Wel&Wild, SRA Scuttle Rack, BlueSound+LPS, Thorens 124DD+124SPU, Sennheiser, Metaxas R2R -
I like that guyLOL. I saw that too. Plus he is using zip cord for speaker wire.
. In my case, it suits me to use my Vitus SCD-025 and SIA-025 to run in my speakers as my cd player only had about 70 hours on it & needs to run in at the same time. Also the SIA-025 can be switched to Class A/B operation to save power. -
The problem is i'm a perfectionist. It is all or nothing with me, so i'll wait until I can do it rightYessir.... I say do eet!.

@Joey_V, no not yet. On the bright side my Dealer has offered some of his time to help me setup my system, but unfortunately I'm flat out with other work this w'end. Touch wood, should be in the next couple of weeks!

I think he has all his gear. I might be wrong, but the impression I get is he wants it setup perfect before playing. To each their own.Lumin X1 file player, Westminster Labs interconnect cable

Hi Bud, aside from my desktop setup, yupHave you been without music all this time?

Well, something is better than nothing. I remember back in 2000 I was using Napster and a Yamaha computer speaker system, and spending hours glued to the sound. LOL.Lumin X1 file player, Westminster Labs interconnect cable

You're right Bud. Admittedly i'm a perfectionist setting up my system. Everything needs to be balanced visually as well as sonically, so a lot of effort goes into isolation, routing cables, cable risers etc. I feel like all that attention to detail pays dividends in sound reproduction.I think he has all his gear. I might be wrong, but the impression I get is he wants it setup perfect before playing. To each their own.
Unfortunately i've had to take work home with me this weekend, so it might be a week or two before I get my rig setup, but it will be worth it.
-
I thought myself as a very patience man! But I am wrong. You beat me by a very long mile waiting this long to hear those awesome speakers. That must be why I can see Joey's excitement from California.Trying out Different Audio Cables is a Religious Affair. You don't discuss it with anyone. :redface::biggrin:

Hi folks, i've just had a lot of rubbish to deal with at work in the last couple of months. Right now, i'm getting ready to get away for a week's holiday, so my focus is on loading albums to my new A&K DAP to listen in the car & on my high end IEM's. Patience, we'll get there..

He's playing with the souped up Mini Cooper guys. No time for the Aston Martin.
