Hello Guys... :)
I was up close to my A9's Mid Ranges and tweeter so I could try to hear what the tweeter was "Playing" and what the Mid Range speakers was "Playing"..

I notice, the Mid Range speaker above the tweeter was not playing the same "Sounds" as the Mid Range speaker that is below the tweeter..

It is like the lower Mid Range speaker was missing "detail"..that I can hear ,
from the upper Mid Range speaker.
I assume those Mid Range speakers are supposed to sound the same.

Note: They do sound good. I notice the recorded music source makes a big difference in the
expectations of these Speakers.
For deep Bass, try listening to The Beegie Adair Trio.. :)

    What Bass?

    I listened to a lot of her songs and my wife agrees, that's not BASS, it's just bass.
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    Hello Inspector 24.
    Thanks for replying..
    No, it does not mention in words,about the mid ranges crossing..
    Had this in the Specs :

    CROSSOVER Type 3-way
    Mid range/Woofer Crossover Frequency 120 Hz
    Tweeter/Mid range Crossover Frequency 1800 Hz

    Unless I am reading / comprehending the specs wrong...

    Could it mean the lower ( Below the Tweeter) 'Mid Range" Speaker is "Crossed over" to/with the woofers,
    and, the top Mid Range speaker (Above the Tweeter) is "Cross over" to/with the tweeter?

    Would the upper pair of the two sets of Binding Post, go to the top Mid and Tweeter, and, the Lower Post set go to the Lower Mid Range speaker and Woofers?

    I was going to try hook up to see/hear what the A9s does.
    I was mostly afraid that I might ruin something..
    Thanks for viewing..

    HI Viking64..
    I wish..
    I'd hold a AudioKarma Show there.

    I removed the Binding Post connectors, and, connected the Amp wire only to the top Binding Post set.
    Only the Top Midrange, Tweeter and MIdrange below was playing.
    Both above tweeter and below tweeter Mid Range speakers sounded the same.
    MY fault. I did hear a difference earlier.. on a different recording/music.

    Thanks for viewing..
    Alton :)
