I have these coming this week to get me through the wait of my speaker build, as well as my Lampizator Dac. They are active as are my new speakers that I am getting built by the same S G R Audio. I feel like a kid getting a ride on a fire truck..:exciting::exciting::exciting:

Just a quick update, these are the shitz! I'm going out on a limb here & state from the get go that I have 80-85% of the sound & performance of the SGR Audio 300w mono blocks & the Strads, seriously, for active bookshelf speakers these are scary good. Just put a good preamp in front of them & with a good source & it is some incredible sound!!!

Congrats Kev. Sounds like you are in the zone.

[ohbythebay]

Very cool...excuse my mind but..what floor standers are you getting ? Custom made? Show me so I can drool...LOL

 

[sharkmouth]

SGR Audio MT3.2F These are their latest creation & will take approx 8 weeks for the build.

Kev, Those look great, kind of Avalon meets Sonus Faber, leather covered facets.

Kev - is this your setup now? Wow. Amazing. Can I offer one suggestion? If possible (and its not always possible), move all your gear to the back of the room, or back side of the room. It will help tremendously with sound diffusion. Typically you will want to have the amps on small, short amp stands near the speakers since a long speaker wire cable run is not ideal. Run a pair of long XLR cables to your preamp at the back of your room from there. Some artistic acoustic panels (mine are from ATS Acoustics) at the front of the room (and sides) can also really help. Bass traps too.

But, it's not always possible.....just a thought....

Just the speakers, not my set-up!

I envy you. Those floorstanders look absloutly awesome.

The small ones look great too. It really is increadable what can be done with modern small drivers even in small enclousers. Enjoy them all well.

That was the exact conversation I had with a local dealer just last week, about how exceptional the sound is that some of these small drivers are putting out these days.

Am still waiting, the inside of the speakers are now being lined, once that happens the process speeds up from there so am hopeful for about a fortnight.
