Center Speaker from Carver 5.1 Surround Speaker System. http://www.matronics.com/Carver/

Welcome Aboard This site is very different from most other audio sites. I meant that in a good way.

Looks like I am going through the early stages of OCCD. Flying out today to pick up a CT-7/M-4.0t combo. They will be part of my bedroom system. Considering a pair of Cinema Ribbons and a True Sub as stable mates.

Here are a few crappy iPhone photos of the TX-11 the previously mentioned amps that were sold on Ebay and the Scintillas they were used on.

If you plan to actively bi-amp the originals, you have to be mindful of the passive crossover's built-in notch filters (to ameliorate the cavity resonance of the planar transducers). BillD and Reese went down that road with Platinums: http://thecarversite.com/yetanotherforum/default.aspx?g=posts&m=12933#post12933 Yes, and this site is a treasure trove of information. I am grateful to those that have shared all of there experiences. This is one of the great things about the on board DSP on the amps. Great flexibility with slopes filters Q and on and on. All settings can be saved as file to compare and tweak.

Thanks 2 all. The ALS are 800 miles away at my daughters place in Tampa. I flew down last week to make the purchase and the buyer delivered them to her place. I will drive back down later next month to pick them up. From previous active amplification of the Apogee Scintilla. I have found a amp the can drive .3 ohm ribbons without shutdown. This will more than likely be a long project as I plan to run them in full active mode.

I have come full circle back to Carver gear. I recently purchased a set of ALS originals and a TX-11 tuner. Great to have Carver in the house.
