    Ok, Did a little more experimenting last night! Dumped the Junk JVC r6000v 100 wpc into five channels with a wopping .9% THD... WTF, this new equipment leaves me baffled! Anyhow, I hooked the Yammy back up (less pwc, but much smoother and warmer!) And hooked the DBX back up! (yeah i know, more **** in...lol...) And i must have moved these speakers 20 times, But think i finally found the "sweet" spot... I was reading somewhere, It said, Keep the distance of the center of the woofer (radiator) = from wall's, Floors and corners! (yeah i know, wtf... but i t worked the best!)... I dumped the Sub and now can't wait to hear them sober when i get home... lol... I hope i have found the "golden ticket" to these polks! (still better than any i have ever owned)

    PS: Do you think Matt Polk designed these while listening to Pink Floyd? lol...
    Shine on you crazy Diamond!

    PSS: Is there really a "warmth difference" between times of manufacturing
    IE: say a Yamaha natural sound rec. made back in the 80's compared to a top of the line JVC HT rec. made in the 90's ???

    I did some googling and still only see the T amp as being 15 watts? What am i missing?


    I think my whole system would sound a LOT better if i just converted everything over to vinyl... :(

    Forget the T-amp it's a mere toy. Those speaks deserve much better
