I don't, I've posted a bit around here and there. Also, thanks :)

If you need help with anything, just ask :)

While I was learning about these things I asked on all the forums (headfi, reddit, eevblog, diyaudio, ..., including this one? - not sure though)

Nobody responded :(

Yeah well sorry about that.. didn't know those were a thing. I'm not what you'd call a regular, but I kinda love this community and Linus and guys so I come here now and then. Local audiophiles are all about the "sonic changes" the colors of your cables make

Measurments  : no smoothing (1/12 on rta), far field gated to 170 Hz, rest are nearfields - they align with far field perfectly from 150 -300 Hz

I boosted bass up 5-10 db on main profile (got Harman curve on my rta), but have a second profile with flatter bass also.

Whats with the speakers being on feet. Is there a driver or a passive radiator, or is it just to get the horn at head height.

Are those TAD drivers? They sound amazingly good...

 

Also, what's the big box next to Yggdrasil?

What horns are those?

Well it might become one, why not. It's a good idea. Someone can rename this thread and there we go. Or make a new one for it.
