Guido makes a good point here. Regarding soundstage dimensionality and bass response, I had to retweak my sub (I actually had to adjust my sub and crossovers UP a bit) AND reposition my speakers---not in any major way----but the TT mods definitely required some changes in physical placement in order to get the maximum height/depth and "holographic" effect. So, while I know it can be a bit of a chore, those who experience some fall off in soundstaging might want to play around with speaker placement before throwing in the towel--it made a big difference for me. -- rgro Rg System information ------------------------ Main: PS Audio Quintet > Vortexbox > Touch (wired) via optical > Rega DAC > LFD LE IV amp > VA Mozart Grands > REL Acoustics R305.
