Ha.... a legend in your own mind....
A few of your multiple personalities are telling you to get the RAAL, and the other ones are telling you NO...
IMO, your just used to your LCY's which are dam good, and you need more time with the RAAL's to appreciate them for what they are - AWESOME....
I had a hard time adjusting at first coming from my Paradigm Sig S4's .v1's... and listening to the RAAL's of the SS's made me felling like they were thin as well.... It also didn't help that I still have the Paradigm Sig's out in the Main rig and I was going back and forth between the two rigs, just felt that the whole upper range was missing - when in fact it was just over pronounced in the Be tweets and I had to dial the highs back....
Ha. I'm a legend in your own mind too. Admit it...
I'm so glad that now my entire core group of audio "friends" is jumping all over me. Thanks guys, I love you all too.
I admit to not liking the RAAL after hearing it in 4 different speakers, and 3 different rooms and setups. It does bother me that so many like it so much, and people like Jim Salk and Dennis Murphy come and state that it is in fact better.
So what's wrong with me looking into the idea of a retrofit? What if I'm just curious enough to actually do the retrofit? I may just prove you're all wrong. Normally you all are wrong. I don't know why I have to keep proving it. Maybe I'm just bored.
On a more serious side of things, my setup has dramatically changed recently. I completely re-did my acoustic panels, and my setup is reacting very differently now. I've stumbled upon potential greatness here. This is one of the only things I've done in the last 6-8 months that was clearing beneficial in every aspect. Normally every change I make is a series of trade-offs that I can't clearly say is positive. Now that my setup is sounding different, I feel differently about certain things, one of which is my LCY tweeters. I'm not dissatisfied per say, but I'm wondering about something.
So yes, I may be interested in the RAAL retrofit. I think it would be a rather simple swap, and likely worth the money. You guys know I'm the ultimate tweaker, and I've tried just about everything with my setup. This is one thing I haven't tried...yet...
