It sounds as though you are making the changes from cable to cable etc. yourself. If so, how do you rule out the placebo effect?

Did you try with a number of different models? Did you try with battery power? Obviously, it will have its own power supply, but so will the switch that you use without a fibre break. My network consists of a modem/router, a switch, 2 WAPs, 2 NAS, 2 PCs, and also connects to my ISP. I'd rather work ...

I can't help thinking that, if there are issues with the NAS affecting the sound via the network cable, this could be completely fixed using a fibre to RJ45 bridge. That way you just have light connecting the two. A pair would be cheaper than a SSD.

I meant add the 2200 for the bass of the isobarik, assuming it is 4-way aktiv.

Charlie, Not too pushy at all. I have used the tune dem method in the past and it did seem to work. The trouble for me is that, if the treble is too bright, I won't be able to get past that, however tuneful the system is. I've backed off the treble one notch now. It's much less impressive sounding, ...

Ah, thanks.

But if the Bass unit is hidden and the mid/tweeter is on the top, there's nothing left to go on the front. It would look like the side of a 140!

I seem to be eternally roughing out the speaker positions and never quite getting to the fine tuning. I guess that's due to me moving around a lot so by the time I get things right in one room, I'm off to another. I've just moved them a little (2cm) closer which seems to have focused the soundstage....

Well, no dots on my Kikkin. Does it need to go back to Sweden for the upgrade or can it be done in the UK? I like the 109s, especially aktiv. I don't know that I would want anything more revealing as they already reveal the limits of a lot of recordings. I do find them lacking in bass in the room I'...

Thanks for the info. I don't think the manual is the problem, more the fact that I didn't bother to read it properly. Inverting phase is pretty easy to understand, I was just checking that there wasn't some strange reason that required the phase to be inverted before the crossover cards in the amp. ...

Hi and thanks.

So I can just invert the speaker cables? My speaker are aktiv, but with separate power amps (not built into the speakers).

So does this mean the Kikkin is putting my system (Linn DS/Amp/Speakers) in reverse phase?
