That is correct. They are voiced with the grilles on.

My understanding is...Yes, they are different than other companies in this regard. I have the 30.2 40th Anniversary Harbeths (which, to my understanding, was a higher-spec 30.2 than the XD version) and I have always listened to them with the speaker grilles on as, because just as you have...

Peter, when you say "Lumin X1 P-series U-series T3X T3 T2 D3 support Qobuz Connect in Firmware 19", are you referring to Firmware 19 for the Lumin app (e.g. the app on my iPhone?) I'm using a Lumin P-1, and the Lumin app on my iPhone shows I am running Firmware version 18.1, released on...

Any photos of the crossover’s components available?

Hi Dave, If you're open to a suggestion, I'd go to the Lumin website and compare the specs for both. As for sound quality, my thought is that given that the room acoustics are a big factor with respect to how a system sounds, IMHO, the only way to unequivocally determine would one would sound...

If I were looking at what would be classified as an entry level speaker cable, I'd be looking at the speaker cables from GR-Research. Danny really knows what he's doing when it come to this domain. Link here: https://gr-research.com/product/24-strand-diy-audiophile-speaker-cable/

If you can budget about $1K for speaker cables, I'd recommend you consider getting a pair of the new Shunyata Research Gamma speaker cables (SPs) for $998 for a 2.5 M pair. I know it's about 20% more than your budget, but I have these speaker cables in for review of the full Gamma line of cables...

Hey gang, Today Danny Ritchey of GR-Research and Ron Brenay of New Record Day just posted two excellent video interviews with Norm Varney of A/V Roomservice discussing the importance of room and floor-borne vibration on the audio quality of high-fidelity systems and how the A/V Roomservice EVPs...

Okay, so he changed from a PS Audio P20 to a Furutech Vault, what’s this got to do with your original post regarding the Pure Power NCF 6 E? Search for reviews on the Shunyata Research Everest; they will tell you what you need to know.

Most respectfully, if you think your post is going to have me re-thinking the benefits that that my Shunyata Research Everest power distributor provides to my overall system audio quality…well, you can think again. Cheers.

Personally, I'm hoping it's Oscar. As for Max, I just hope he doesn't take anyone out at the start.

No, I haven't. Mads reached out to if I'd be interested in reviewing them, and I said I would, but he's busy fulling actual orders right now, and I wouldn't be able to review them until probably 4-6 months from now, regardless, as I have one review I'm completing, and another one lined up after...
