You have made a 180 degree switch, and looks terrific!

How are you liking a fully tube sound now?

Enjoy

Its amazingly good. The soundstage has really opened up, mids are silky smooth and the bass is just so much improved. I am barely using the JL Audio F110 subwoofer.

The Scan Speak Illuminator is a tremendous driver. Smooth, clear, unreal bass for its size. I've got them in my Salk Silks with RAAL tweeters. Fantastic DIY, Audiohippo!

Thanks. They are really something special. I'm considering using a ARC + Pass combo to power them.
