Default Klipsch Heresy III are home !

And singing with the Shindo Apetite.
Sound is a bit cold right now but :
- No stereo image because they are not well set up in the living room
-Using the SB TOUCH analog outs with the crappy PSU provided
- break in is needed
But this is going to be a great combo....!
Thanks again to my favorite dealer : Mike S. from Audio Classics !

Very nice Jerome! I bet they will sound great with that "little" Apetite. You know we're going to need to see pictures don't you?

What cabling are you using with that?

Thanks guys.
Will post pics later on.
Doug,
At this time the SB touch is connected to the Apetite with a Linn Silver cable and the speaker cables are Naim Naca 4.
I am sure that the Kimber 8TC will be much better or I could try A23 cables in this system.
I have to order an other MCRUS PSU for the SB. This will make the biggest difference in the system. Not sure if I will use an outboard dac right now. It may seem absurd but the performance of the SB Touch with a good linear PSU is very very close to cheap dacs like the Rega DAC and so on, at least for a very "secondary" system like this one. But I will surely try the Wadia. I like the very small footprint.
An other option would be to let the PSU upgrade out of the game by now and buy the Wadia dac.

Jerome, Mazel Tov on the new speakers. I will enjoy reading about the break-in and fine-tuning of your system.
