I arranged a visit to hear Craig Open Baffles. Thank you so much for your Kindness Craig.
The LX521 are very well made Craig did all the wood cutting. His system is very Open and Musical loads of Attack and the bass goes down very low. I actually prefer than to my Open Baffles they have a bit more bass extension and he was getting a bit more detail. The speakers excel in that live vibe they do both intimacy and attack well, but will show up flaws in recordings. Certainly one of the finest speakers I have ever heard regardless of price.
We talked about his system and both agree attending to the phonostage would bring his front end up and perhaps beyond his digital System. At the moment Craig digital system certainly has the edge.
Craig also talked about adding subwoofers to go even lower, to be honest unless watching films I really would not feel need myself.
You have to admire the effort Craig has put into building his system, he certainly has a reference system that compete with the very best.
For me its still a expensive route to undertake, when I can I probably get the Hawthorne AMT 700 drivers as my next speaker upgrade. But very impressed with this approach
