Music Used (Genre/Selections): | Mostly rock n roll and blues...some jazz and a little bit of classical |
System Goals/Comments: | Improve bass boominess (sometimes) with acoustic tx, |
System Strengths: | Active biamping eliminates passive crossovers and system has truly great midrange. Linn is always very "musical " and "rhythmic." |
System Weaknesses: | CDP is getting to be a bit thin in the tooth as far as today's technology goes...also uncertain about correctly integrating subwoofer to satellites. (uncertain due to room's lack of acoustic tx) |
Video/HT System: None | |
TV/Projector: | Nothing to speak of ...having kids takes $$$ away from doing a decent video setup |
