    Issue w SABA MT 201 Tuner

    UPDATE: have had the tuner back in my rig for about a week with no issue. it sounds great. for some reason i'm getting a bit more SPL--have to turn down the preamp a bit when i select tuner--but otherwise perfect. i now use the power switch on the variac to turn it on/off. fingers crossed...

    Issue w SABA MT 201 Tuner

    OK, was able to dial in 219/220; going to let that go for a couple of hours to see if it stays stable; then will plug in the tuner and see if the fuse blows again; if not, will let it run for a while... thanks again!

    Open Baffle Epiphany!

    to each their own, eh? i tried a higher cross point but felt that too much of the music was coming out of the alphas. i use a miniDSP to bring in the alphas; the Liis run full range (i do the same thing with my altec 604Es and helper woofers; i use a higher cross point for them). i set the...
