Hi purple66,
Vienna it is. When Lockdown is over you are very welcome for a listening session!
Pre-wise Iām back to green at the moment and in my system/roomcontext the sound of 552/500/Chord Music is more balanced and with a meticulous setup Iām absolutely in no hurry regarding the S1.
Happy listening!
Hi Jodl,
Thankās for your invitation, Iām looking forward to hear your system when lockdown is over. You are also welcome to listen to my system. Iām living 20 kilometers outside Vienna. I wouldnāt be surprised if we both share to same dealer Longtone Hifi. If yes, than we probably know each other from one of his customer events.
So happy listening
You two are making me homesick
Awwā¦
Another spring cleaning day full with dismantling all boxes and shelves. I decided to place an empty shelf under the 500 stack to take the bottom amp (tweeters) out of the most direct influence from the huge Trafo in the S1 basement next to it. Maybe I am fooling myself but somehow itās sound is very coherent now. Although I did prefer the more tidy looks with the two stacks left and right of equal height. Also the PS stack got better organized with the 555ps on the very bottom now and the sc for the snaxo above separated by a base shelf accommodating the chord connection in between for pre to sc. The three 500ps are now well separated from the rest too. So quite a successful weekend all together
Hi Charlie, may we assume that the light grey cable between the racks-entry to the Holy Grail was put there by your wife, purely to avoid you playing with your LP12. I mean weāve have already seen one kitchen photo leading up to, what would have lead to āthe bad boy-treatmentā?! The mind wanders Peter
Your S1 looks positively diminutive next to your DBLs.
Hi Peter
Love your sense of humor.
Its actually one of those cheapish chord interconnects for the signal between the SC/Superline into S1 . Without it playing with the LP12 would be quite in vain, my wife remains innocent hereā¦
I think your dbls sound better is she is positioned a bit closer to you. Precisely halfway you and the loudspeakers.
Your wife defo has different firmware than mine. My wife tries to get my spot all the time.
Itās been nearly 3 months since I switched out my 500/552 for the Statement. thereās been NO looking back!
