Default The neverending cycle...
So, my 20.7s are starting to settle in, and they are marvelous. I guess because I always need a project, I have now started on upgrading the theatre...

The 1.6s were replaced by 3.6s, which are now being replaced by 3.7s...

Boy, is my wife understanding...

It's good to have a project or two going on. The winters are cold and lonely in the great white north!

Care to maybe throw the old ones my way -- I don't mind hand-me-downs. I could trade you for some McIntosh apples grown in Ontario smog.

The 20.7's have a low WAF - your wife is very understanding.

Did you notice any improvement with the 3.7's over the 3.6's?

Default There is a huge difference between the 3.6s and 3.7s...
The first thing I noticed was the bass. Right out of the box the 3.7s had better definition. The midrange was smoother than the 3.6s. and the 3.6s were well broken in.

The biggest thing was that the 3.7s seemed seamless...

I love the 3.6s but the 3.7s are just better.

ps. My wife tolerates a lot...(smile)
