Re: Hey, JCC

I have compared, side by side, the ZR 1600 to the Classe CA-400. Here's what I found.

The bass from the 1600 is more abundant, cleaner, and more accurate
The mids were slightly less pleasing than the Classe, however more accurate as well
The highs were more detailed, less rolled off, and much clearer

As a whole I experienced more dynamics, gain, and more of a live music sound.
I have an older pair of Mirage M3s that are modified and are somewhat difficult to drive. The Carver brought out things in these speakers that I thought I would have to do without. Looking at the non-massive woofers in them, I never thought, and never had, that I could get the bass response out of them either.
For me, the music experience from the Carver is as close to the live shows I have seen as I have gotten.
