    More changes over the last year and retired

    I agree on placement. I did swap the electronics but the problem remained with the speaker/panel. Initially, I setup my speakers with a tape measure then tweak like toe-in, flash light method and rake angle to achieve the optimal performance. I also have GIK panels behind and off to the side...

    More changes over the last year and retired

    I did swap the electronics from left to right and the problem stayed on the left which told me it was the panel. They are 19 years old so I guess I should not complain too much. I did set up my home theater preamp, Mcintosh, with a microphone and got it balanced pretty well. Of course now that...

    I am running a Pass Labs 150.8 with CLSiiZ with no issues if that helps. It has been flawless for the last 3 years!

    BTW, I think I have pics of the stands if you or anyone would like to copy them. I had the height set for me so that the middle of the panel was at ear height.

    Brad, Thanks I am still tweaking which is dangerous. The CLX is just no in my reach anymore. I may consider having the electronics checked/upgraded in the future. I did replace an inductor and a couple of caps which gave them a bit more punch. I also added Dynamat around the panel on the...

    RJ, Thanks! The amp is a Pass Labs X150.8. It replaced a CJ Premier 350. The only reason I replaced the CJ was I had heard they can no longer source the transformer for that amp and with my luck, that would be the thing which would break although highly unlikely. I know Pass Labs stands by...

    Jonathan, Yes they do sound good but I am always tweaking a bit which can be dangerous. ;) Jeff

    Charlie, Thanks The stands were made by a friend of mine in California. The "feet" are filled with sand. I am using Herbie's pucks for the spikes on the CLS. Jeff

    More changes over the last year and retired

    I have been retired now for a year and have moved to Indiana from California. I have made a few changes one significant and one nice improvement. Most everything is the same and now with limited budget I can mostly dream....;) I think since my last "update post" awhile ago I have added a...

    Hello from Seal Beach, CA.... New ESL13As on the way!...

    Hi Henryeng, I have GIK panels behind my speakers. I have the 244's, 242's and the corner traps. I would say yes you can have then directly on the wall. This is what I did and I have had no issues. In my old house they worked very well and took out the "echo" and reflectiveness of the room...

    Hello! 70 yo from Beaumont, CA

    Sure it figures. I lived in So Cal for over 50 years. Just retired and moved to Indiana to be closer to my daughter and granddaughter. Yes I am 70 as well and plan to listen more and enjoy!! I did go to one of the LA/OC Audio Society event many years ago. I recommend going at least once!

    Best speaker cable for CLS?

    I just double checked my cables on the CLSiiz and the Sequelii's and the Duelunds are NOT terminated with spades the are bare wire. The confusion is on the CLS's I also run the subs with another set of cables which are using spades from the CLS's as well. How is that for confusion? If you...

    Dan, Thanks for your service in the Fire Dept. and retirement is good(?)..................................so far. :rolleyes: I still have expensive taste but I cannot really afford a lot but I am still very happy with my setup. I am not sure if I posted it in awhile but I am happy so that is...

    Best speaker cable for CLS?

    Originally I was just doing bare wire but I felt a bit nervous. It works fine but I felt the exposure to the elements would eventually be of some concern. I am using gold spades now and not that expensive and they may actually be copper for all I know. Yes retirement was well earned with over...

    Best speaker cable for CLS?

    DanR, Yes I believe those are the cables. I also have some XLR interconnects as well. I waited to the maximum year for me to retire, 70, which was this year and retired to Indiana. Jeff

    Best speaker cable for CLS?

    If you do decided to try some Duelund I would be curious of what you think. I am happy with mine and was tired chasing the holy grail. When I moved 6 months ago and retired to the mid-west, I ordered some for my Sequel ii's as well. So far no problems. Jeff
