Joe,
Room is only about 12 by 13 ft. Small. The amazing thing is that while the Evos sound best, so far, in the first place I put them, I can't find a spot where they don't sound good. I read that they could be tough to place, but they have shocked me with how they work in my room. The room loves the Evos. I know I have some work to do as the ARC breaks in, fine tuning setup, but at this point, I am just enjoying them and not obsessing.

Bruce...very nice equipment and I totally agree with you on the Basis tts. I was impressed when I got my 2001. Engineering tolerances are impressive. AJ Conti knows his stuff. If I win the lottery some day, the Inspiration will find its way into my system but until then, the 2001 will have to do

Re: SF Evos, ARC REF 150 SE, ARC REF 5SE, Basis, Keith Herron, Berkeley......
Nelson,
I am not finding the temperature to be a problem. I have no idea why it seemed so much worse at the beginning. There was also an initial odor that is gone, but I expected that would be the case.
The system is still far from broken in. We have been going away just about every weekend for the last month and I am estimating only 125 hours total. I don't leave the ARC playing if I am not listening, like I did with my solid state systems. I am too lazy to open the 150 up for an exact number. I also have new Shunyata power conditioning and cables, with even less hours.

Re: SF Evos, ARC REF 150 SE, ARC REF 5SE, Basis, Keith Herron, Berkeley......
Bruce...if you pull out the Ref 150 from the rack, and you have a flashlight, you should be able to see the hour counter through the slits in the top plate (at least that is the case with my Ref 110...maybe Nelson can confirm this). Alternatively, if you bought the Ref 5SE and Ref 150 together and you turn them both on and off at the same time (which is a pretty good assumption ), you can just look up at the hour counter on the Ref 5SE from your remote. Enjoy.
