NFS Audio

I happened into the NFS room early Friday and no one else was there except Mike. So I had the chance to talk with him about the Gunned 3.6s and Citation II.

When I entered the 3.6s were placed with tweeters outside and the SS amp driving them. So I ask about the set up and Mike explained the speakers sounded best that way at home and while he loved the H-K amp, it simply didn't have the power for much of the music he liked. After my comment saying I would have expected the 3.6s to sound better with tweeters inside, given their wide separation in that room, Mike surprised me by jumping up and switching the speakers. But first he connected the Citation amp. With the tweeters on the inside the image snapped into focus and the whole soundstage had better unity. The next song he played was a female vocal and the Citation had enough power to create something close to magic.

Unfortunately I didn't have time to go back later in the day but apparently the speakers remained in the revised placement.
