Trio15 with Horn1

“Living in SE USA I’ve been loving jazz, blues, rock, classical, opera, bluegrass, Americana, vocals, etc..
Never been a gear swapper or interested in popular items as only the music is what matters. The gear must sound true and wonderful to me for maximum music enjoyment.
I love every minute of listening. I am blessed to have found such wonderful sounding gear!”

“Hi Ze’ev,

Thank you.

Yes, I put them on short wall. Photo attached.

Placement:

21.5″ baffle edge to side wall

5′ to baffle from back wall

7.25′ apart (on tweeter centers)

9.33′ to seat position

Toe-in to intersect behind head.

Raked a bit (Gaia feet). Done by previous owner and seems to do very well like this.

Treatments (GIK) on walls were necessary for previous box speakers. Not sure what all is now necessary, nor their placement. I am going to contact GIK for assistance, but if you have any suggestions I’d love to hear. Corner bass traps, 1st & 2nd side wall reflections bass traps, rear wall diffusion/bass trap panels (other photo seen with previous speakers), front wall diffusion/bass traps.

Driving them with Audio Mirror 45 Watt SET monoblocs (handles peaks to 90 watts). Obviously, overkill but sounds terrific. Likely pursue something less powerful IF I am able to maintain the sound quality currently experiencing.

Amazing! They sound terrific, which I discovered when I heard them last year at the seller’s place (at the time he was not selling them, but his personal circumstances changed since). But what surprises me often is the bass. Both quality and quantity. In-room, I am getting -7dB @ 20Hz, -5dB 22.5 Hz, and spot-on at 25Hz. I was hoping I’d be able sell my pair of subwoofers, and I am so pleased with the bass output of these that I am putting my subs up for sale.

Thank you for the help!”
