I think everything Reference and above can be tuned. At least my Ref. MM2 can--but that's not necessarily a plus in the case of a reviewer who has equipment coming and going. Granted TA does their best to turn the cables around ASAP but there's still that inconvencience.

Correct. They were made by Tyler for 1.2k's. I purchased these from Ivan shortly after I moved to those amps. I was going to go with Dan's amp stands but I liked how the amps looked on the black stand.

This pair is tuned for XLF'S and Momentum's. I think they are tuned properly for my loads.

Myles is correct. Reference level is tuned for either Hi Z or Low Z. The lines above Reference which are Reference XL, Reference MM2 and Opus are all tuned for your exact gear.

I think I might have to act like a gambler hiding from his bookie when Larry at Paragon calls about the Opus cables. These things should have a warning label. They are exactly as addicting as he warned.
