Big E Speakers Part 4 - Quadraphenia

[mntngrown]

Yep, from Leland. Just picked 'em up at Fedex. Won't get home with them until tonite. But man, the box for the sub is BIG.

The sub and that horse in your avatar are gonna cut down on your space!

In case anyone is interested -- and if it's okay to mention here -- I'm selling my 2nd-gen. 66. Link in my sig.

Thank you and carry on.

I can only imagine how good this setup must sound. I do have a good imagination, though. I'll continue to content myself with my Paradigm speakers...

I saw some pages with the Event Horizon 210 of Duke's, looked like a home version of the 210 Flex. I was under the impression that Leland was handling PA and home theater Big E designs.

Duke and I have split the home market. He's the high end audiophile segment, I'm the normal world.

Crap I know I know I forgot tell you the switch on the cabs is a selectable xover for the tweets. The difference is pretty subtle, only about 500hz, but in some rooms you need it.

Pics will have to wait a bit.

They do sound really, really good. I suspect your Paradigms aren't bad sounding either
I'm still doing some tweaking and adjusting of crossover and such. But man... Listened to Aja tonight, and Chuck Rainey and the rest sounded pretty amazing.

Early gig tonight. It turns out--coincidentally--that the first song that Duke and I use to test speakers is Babylon Sisters.

LOVE me some Steely Dan

 

[lelandcrooks]

Yup. Aja is one of my test cd's. The most revealing I have is Allison Krauss.

 

[Coolhandjjl]

Steely Dan wins the Daily Double. For testing vinyl, Gaucho is the pinnacle.

Allison is SO gifted.

Yes, Alison can be very revealing:

 

[lelandcrooks]

Lo

Interesting side note. I sold a PA system to a bluegrass band that Allison started with when she was like 16 or 17. The laughed a lot when I pulled it out for the demo.

[kesslari]

GAWD, that rig must rock.

 

[thumbs&fingers]

Yes..........it does. Thanks to all of you for your valuable insight.

Just pulled the trigger on a MAS112 with all the options minus the Ciare. Very excited to say the least.

For those that have them, what kind of power are you feeding these cabs? Where's the sweet spot, so to speak.
