Rebbi, can you give us some current updates on how the speakers are sounding so far? Also, are you placing these monitors on Skylan stands?
I had originally ordered the Alnico XRS but changed it to the monitors because of how they looked together on the Skylan stands. They are like picture perfect together. I'm not a subwoofer guy and coming from the Super 3XRS ( w/ the RS5) where I was pretty impressed with the overall bass already, Louis says I'll be very pleased with the bass of the Alnico monitors. He confirmed to me that the Alnico monitors actually have a larger cabinet volume than the 3XRS so the potential is there.
Another thing is that Omegas need the right amp to produce sufficient bass. I'm currently driving my 3XRS with Super Zen Select ( upgraded w/ UFO transformers and Jupiter Copper coupling caps) and the results so far are pretty impressive, especially in regards to the mid-bass and deep bass. Using the 8 ohm tap, the amp seems to have a better grip/control on the speaker cone and this is really noticeable with the bass improvements thus far. Hopefully my UFO transformers will be sufficiently burned-in by the time I get my Alnico monitors.
