It's hard to predict. I have a pair of ALIII+ speakers connected to a TFM-75. I plan on updating the crossovers just because I feel they are getting muddy - but it's hard to know for sure - as it is very subjective. As far as comparison between your Amazings and the ALIII? I think that is going to be subjective as well. And, perhaps if you put an A-B switch in your system, you might be able to get a direct flip-back-and-forth comparison. But in the end, your ears are different than my ears, and only you can make the final assessment. Bottom line, generally, people comment that upgrading crossovers that are 30+ years old increases their perceived performance for separation (lows from highs) and increased detail. Let us know what you hear in your upgrade. We're looking forward to your results.

This showed up on SiriusXM this morning; haven't heard this in a long time...

Yes they will refresh the crossovers and make sure everything is aligned, I am presently using Carver ALIII with my McIntosh C2700 and TFM 75, How much improvement can I expect when the Amazing speakers silver edition project is done (maybe in September).

Excellent! I hear they do good work. If I had someone close, I would do less surround DIY myself! Post back when you can, as you work through the project - and post a picture or two 😉 We love pictures. Does Speaker City also refresh cross-overs? At the current age - you might consider replacing the consumable parts on your Amazing crossovers, as well.

My poor description, they need six new foam surround, I could DIY, however I am Friends with the owner of Speaker City USA and can get them done professionally fairly inexpensive. Thanks for your input.

All my music is local, 1,800+ albums. I run Lyrion Music Server (formerly Logitech Media Server) to play my music either individually across my several clients or synced so selected clients play the same thing. It has plugins for Tidal, Qobuz, Spotify, no Amazon. WiiM devices except for WiiM Mini, WiiM Sub Pro, and WiiM Vibelink Amp natively support Lyrion as renderers. You can also build a renderer using a Raspberry Pi. The WiiM devices that don't directly have support for Lyrion can be used via the Lyrion UPnP support. Lyrion can access just about any radio station worldwide that has an internet presence. The Lyrion server can be installed on most any type computer, Windows, MAC, Linux, etc. Lyrion supports just about all music file formats, FLAC, WAV, ALAC, MP3, etc. From what I've read it seems that the biggest difference between Lyrion and Roon is the price, Lyrion is free for both the server software and Squeezelite client renderer software, which is also available for most OS platforms.

Play some piano music..., like Horowitz. That will ferret out any "buzzing" in the ribbons. If they don't buzz, enjoy them. To rebuild and replace the magnets in their proper position (they don't get "demagnetized" they just need to be held in place during assembly with a special jig that only one guy I know, has one - that is @sea, Ed Atkins, here on theCarverSite. He rebuilds them with new kapton (the panel material) and the magnets replaced. Rebuilding Ribbons is NOT a DIY job - taking them apart will result in a pile of powerful magnets, and kapton..., don't attempt. The "jig" holds "everything" in place for assembly - and can't be hacked together in a home shop. As for the minor flaws in the kapton - if it doesn't affect sound when you play intense music (like Horowitz Piano) - don't worry about it. If punctured, and makes buzzing - then consider asking Ed for an estimate. ... Curious..., Why do you think the drivers need to be "RECONED"? typically, just a new foam surround is all that is needed - cheap, and DIY-able. Reconing is usually only recquired after catestrophic and malicious damage.

I recently picked up a pair of amazing speakers silver edition in white oak $450, the panels are in great shape the woofers need reconning knew that going in, hooked them up before purchasing the ribbons sounded great, (was in a dimly lit basement) however on getting them home discovered that the magnet on the very top of one had migrated over the ribbon, took two flat blade screwdrivers and moved it back in place, the ribbons have two very small indentations, sound flawless to my ears, do i need to get the magnet deenergized and glued back in place. Thanks in advance for your help and advice,
