My brother is still going on about the speakers he bought from you, well happy. We've just got to get his Harbeths fixed

Dittons look massive, MAs are a bit lost on the Mannas, look nice though

all in hand ian,by the way what are mannas?

ive done the usual 'have a nose inside', same 1 cap design as the 852MD'S, 3.3UF poly.
Does anyone know how tight the cross brace should be? mine were loose so i've done them up finger tight to stop them vibrating.

1st impressions are good,very good.they take over where the 852'S finish,they dont have the earth shattering bass the dittons have but what is there is tight and clean,refreshing to my ears.
the mid and highs is where these excel,very nice detail,i may re fill the tweeters with some fresh ferro fluid like i did on my 852's,that seemed to make a small difference.
anyway here's some pics

internal cross brace.

The crossbrace should be tight enough to reduce panel resonance within the audio bandwidth. Hard finger tight will probably be adequate.

i got this from monitor audio today,



iam really enjoying these speakers,the soundstage is fantastic,ive found they seem to be sensitive to toe in.i shall give them a week of listening and then see how the dittons sound again.

Hmm. Never heard of the R700MD.
