Your Joule's look fantastic nice choice of veneer, I connected my Cirrus/Joule started some music and left town. I have a friend that tinkers with electronic design, he indicated the Dueland RS capacitors I'm using have a super long break in. He indicated that they will sound very different in about ten days of running them in. He said the designer will be shocked to hear the speakers after they run for two to three weeks, smoothing out and greater extension on top and smoother mids with much better separation. He was impressed with the choice of drivers and indicated I shouldn't be too concerned with the smaller Raven. He'll be coming back for a listen since I'll be gone for 12 days believing that will begin telling the story. We'll see, Klaus will be finished with my Kismet amp in Jan so I'll need to break that in next...
