After all the incredible and super expensive "items", this feels relieving. Another DIY speaker, simple and pretty. 12" ScanSpeak woofer and Seas mid & high drivers, about €2500. I'd probably make it fully active, if it was mine :).

Obviously people need education on bi-amping properly, thanks for the write-up :)! People, read this and get it right :)! https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/bi-amping-101.22817/

For me... Fosi - no gain control is a drawback when gain staging. Having two powersupplies is more messy. No local dealer/warranty. Aiyima - also no local dealer and no local warranty. Not the best performer, on paper (but probably good enough). Topping has gain control and a friendly local...

Also, I'd limit myself to artificial flowers, watering accidents can happen...(!)

Looks like you're making progress :). Did you remeasure any of the initial speakers to compare vs indoors results?

Thanks, I will - any colour will do :D. But the white looks great, I could easily get used to those :).

Here's the original image, posted by the owner, from his home: https://www.hifisentralen.no/forumet/threads/kiss-keep-it-simple-stupid.98832/post-3086487 There's a few more images in the thread, for alternate exposures :).

Interesting, do you have these in demo somewhere near Oslo? Not that I have the cash, just curious to hear them :).

Using two. Several ways to handle balance.

I would like a gain control like e.g. the Topping P5 has. Using them in a active system, a volume knob is useful. Otherwise, awsome :). Historically it was not uncommon to include gain control on power amps, often pr. channel, like my old Kenwood L-1000M. This is useful for gain staging and...

Some designs become timeless, when done properly you can't improve them much. The DCW is well tested over time, and works really well. DCW vs coaxial can be a matter of preference, and hearing both together the way to compare them. The W371 has a 15", so has 1238a ;). Have to agree with...

Measuring in a room is difficult, so your measurements shows a lot of room modes and reflections. I'm no expert, so can't advice much, but eliminating the room by going outside is a good method, if you can. In general, consistency in levels, angles and distances is important. Moving the mic a...

Manually normalized at 400Hz, it seemed natural...

Klein & Hummel O96. These were used by the Norwegian Broadcasting Corp. from around mid 1980s.

I'm trying hard not to agree with you, since the R3s I own look very, very nice. Due to all the Blade 2/R11 Meta talk lately, I brought them out of storage for retrials. But, next to Genelec and JBL, the R3 does sound a bit muffled and closed - mids and highs are sadly lacking. I'm still looking...

Nice, just what i needed. With a Mackie Big Knob passive, I can switch between 4 monitor sets and have volume control :).

Thanks - I didn't know about that either, I thought 4 pole was max :).

Thanks. I use 2,5mm2 wires, so SA28 should be just right :).

Nice, fully active is another level :). I'm converting my 4-way JBL250Ti's, one speaker is ready while I'm waiting for parts for the second (currently bi-amped). I'm considering 2x speakon, but one 8-pin is even cleaner. What do you call that connector? Dagfinn

Well, you're right, they can look very busy :(. 8260a is nice :cool:.
