god they are stunning...I can't wait to get my hands on their younger brothers (rti a7's). I couldn't justify the cost of the a9's at age 20, but I was most certainly tempted...Bulls make money.

Pigs get slaughtered.

Congrat's on your pending A-7 purchase, awesome speaker's! Real nice low end, and the Mid's can hold their own. I owned these speaker's for about 4 month's, and was very pleased.:D The A-9's kept calling, so i had to answer. LOL.:rolleyes:

Very well, thank's. No complaint's at all. They really deliver some big, and clear sound for 2 channel and H/T.:D This should only get better after they get some more break in time.

You got me bro, right on the "carpet":D. I will try to offer the best review i can: After setup and re-calibration using the MCACC with the Sc-05, i popped in my favorite cd, ( The Eagle's, Hell Freeze's Over). Just your basic Redbook cd, and noticed a marked difference in my front stage, the Midrange had perked up tenfold, compared to the A-7, instumental presentation, and vocal's were like night and day.
Primarily useing the NAD C-565BEE for my source, via digital hookup, and taking advantage of the 05's DAC'S, I was quite impressed. The A-9's are a little "bright" right now , but see them settling down in time. Seemed like there was alway's an overwhelming presence of bass with the A-7's no matter what.
For fun i threw my 80gb PS3 in the mix, via HDMI, and was dare i say "impressed"? feel it doesn't get the credit it deserve's as a cd player. Havent hooked up the NAD yet via RCA'S, to the 05, but that's next. Hope this was a somewhat decent review, im not good at these, hope i was able to give some insight.:)

Congrats...Retro...
I've been in England for a little over a week so I missed the speakers arrival. I'm not surprised that the 9s sound good. I've always said they were the BEST of the RTIs period!
I also agree about the PS3, I have one and an older class D amp I've run with it a couple of times. It sounds very clean for a mid to lower end CDP but I really think that has a lot to do with the Pioneer Elite as well.
I have yet to set up my SDA-2A/B..not sure what they are? I think they're Bs. But would have to pull drivers to know for sure....
Enjoy the new speaks.....!!!
