RE: Congratulations! I still love my Cronus Magnum...

You're welcome.

Another thought: like your Thiels my speakers are also time aligned and phase coherent. Eliminating the bypass caps (by cutting one wire between them and the coupling caps) gave a much more coherent presentation (you can obviously always re-solder the one wire if you don't like the result).

I found the bypass caps smear the time alignment causing the treble to be way too far forward relative to the mid-range and bass. I didn't really notice any loss of frequency extension. But in any case, I then had Rogue remove the cheap bypass and stock coupling caps and insert Mundorf Evo Silver/Gold/Oil (the only ones that would just fit) for more resolution, extension and refinement. For me it was well worth the $400 cost.
