RE: This was in the Roy Gregory Review

69.160.157.129

Well, just an update to my dilemma, it is no more. With over a hundred more hours of burn in on the CPRE-t's and without changing any of the original kit, not a wire, not a tube, the sound has transformed into a very lovely and balance music that is not shy in the lower mid nor shy in bass at all. The thing that completely removed the somewhat edgy and over bearing upper frequencies,filled in the lower mid suck-out, and created a real balanced portrayal, was taking the advice of one of our friends, Dennis, who was performing the room frequency analysis. He recommended reversing the polarity (+/-) from the mono blocks to both of the monitors (tweeter/midrange driver boxes). The minute I flipped the amps off standby we all exclaimed almost in unison, "what the hell, your kidding that's it!!!" The results we heard, and then was backed up by another frequency analysis of the room, the suck-out virtually disappeared and left no other deleterious artifacts what so ever, in the overall presentation of the music. I would have never considered trying this move, nor would I have anticipated its outcome. As it turns out, I am one very happy camper... Happy Listening all!
