Anyway, the MC2301's might be just the ticket. I'm thinking about it just a little bit. I just haven't decided if I want to part with that much cash-o-la. That's a lot of hundred dollar bills any way you look at it. I could offset part of it with the sale of the MC275's, though, but that still leaves a lot of hundred dollar bills to plunk down.

Oh Boy.....here we go again!!!

Now that these words are out, Dan...I have little doubt you'll take the plunge.

I guess I'd better gas up the car!

Yep, give the speakers some room to breathe from nearby boundaries, treat the reflection points along the walls, floor and ceiling and "watch" the soundstage grow and blossom. Positioning speakers is often a tedious job of moving them around and tweaking them out sometimes 1/8 of an inch at a time but when everything comes together and snaps into focus, it is well worth the efforts.

Serge.......One thing is certain, you don't just pick the GM's up and move them around. Coupled to the stands and bases, these babies are heavy.

This is a awesome amp You could sell off part of the upstairs system and combine them into one system with two different speakers to choose from ?

These thoughts conveniently popped into your head just be Christmas. Yes, I am hearing the tune now. "Merry Christmas to Me, Merry Christmas to Me...."

Let us know now, would you like us to help talk you into it, or out of it.

David.......You must have still been woozy from last night's NyQuil.

Sell part of my main system?

I was going to say......this would be highly doubtful.

Last time there is so many threads about Guarneri Mementos. So many new users of these fabulous speaker. Can you share your experience how do you position your speakers? Especially I am interested how much toe-in do you prefer.
