Hi All!
Welcomed a beautiful new pair of SAMs into my home! Louis was a wonderful gentleman to work with. Crafted a beautiful set of Blond Walnut SAMs for me. I now await Noel Nolan's (another wonderful individual to talk to) Skylan stands. Very excited.
Wanted to thank everyone for all of the great info on this board. You guys have also helped to tamper any of the anxieties that go into a new stage on the audio journey. Truthfully, my prior speakers were doing great. No complaints. Took a bit to get there but really good. So why mess with a good thing? For many reasons but mainly I found over time that I was captivated by the tube sound. So after all of the good things I've heard about Louis and his fine speakers, this seemed like a good next step in my exploration of this part of the universe. Even out of the box there was something that grabbed my attention right away. There was a certain detailed layering of the music in a big soundstage that I found mesmerizing.
Is it indeed true that these take many hours to open up and that the sound will continue to open up? Does anyone here have experience pairing their SAMs with a sub?
FWIW, I am roughly #1524 on the decware waitlist but am really enjoying the Aric audio unlimited pre and super KT88 amp with the Omegas.
Looking forward to hearing about all of the experiences and the tid bits of collected wisdom.
