BTW I just watched all your ESL build videos, very cool stuff.

And is the only purpose of the two transformers that are side-by-side in the Prodigy chassis to step up the voltage to energize the panel? What does each do or do they work as one?

I think most of the connections are not actually connected to the transformers. I'll send you a message when I open it up and take some better pictures.

My panels are relatively new and used to measure nearly identically left and right using REW. Now one side is softer and after swapping panels it looks like it's the electronics.

Can you provide info on the transformers and how did you know the specs or what to use? The reason is I may have a problem with the transformers in one of my Prodigies.

I just measured my Prodigy and it only consumes about 0.8W on standby, and around 1.4W when in use.

Does anyone know the specs for the 2 transformers in the Prodigy chassis? I have a panel imbalance between the speakers and I'd like to test them. Any info is appreciated.

Nice and ambitious build! Are the electronics and power supplies from a Quest?

You can look for wireless HDMI adapters eg. https://uniaccessories.com/blogs/blog/wireless-hdmi-for-gaming-pros-and-cons

Noob question - what are these devices (circled in red)?

I am VERY interested in how this goes! Considering the age of my Prodigies I'd also like to replace all caps that can benefit from replacing. If you go ahead please keep a list of what you replace and pics if possible. Since this is not specific to Prodigy or ML, you may want to do some...

Some interesting info about the woofers: The bass module is a sealed dual-woofer design. The forward-facing 10" ScanSpeak aluminum-cone woofer carries the bass audio signal. An independently enclosed, 10" ScanSpeak fiber-cone cone faces to the rear and is driven by a circuit that processes...

I was thinking more of a detailed guide on how to hook up all the Prodigy's internal wiring to an external amplifier with active crossover etc.

Is there a guide for converting Prodigy to use external active crossover and bass amplifier?

In the FAQ section of the Summit manual it says: 20W all year round is roughly $50-60/year. I have a pair of Summits that I only use a few times a year so now I'll probably turn off the power between uses.

According to the manual, a pair of Summits consume "less than 5 watts" when in standby. I measured power consumption using a digital power consumption meter and it measured about 10 watts each or 20 watts a pair in standby. That's quite a lot for standby.

I managed to acquire a Stage X center speaker for the equivalent of US$262. What a steal!

If you want to enjoy 2-channel music especially using computer as your source, buy a DAC. Even a reasonably priced one like an SMSL M400 sounds absolutely amazing.

Yes as Robert D said. The treble really sparkles with new panels.
