    Ron what's on top of the other speakers looks like a pair of 414's and a 902 ? The A7's look very nice (Nice Shape). I like my MR594 II for my large format drivers too.. They sound very nice.What woofers are you using in the A7's 416's ?

    Hey,
    On top of the 9849's are a 414-8C and 8E woofers and a pair of 902-8A drivers. The -8E is an orphan and the 8C goes in one of the boxes. The 9849 HF drivers are on the 994's just messing around. I still haven't listened to the 9849's.
    The A7 boxes were found on CL local here for $250 and are very nice. 416-8A woofs in mint shape. One of those deals that I just couldn't pass up.
    i'd kind of like to get rid of the A7 setup but not the horns and M19 xovers. I love them, but they rather dominate the living room.

    Yes they do, no matter what. Scale is difficult, if not impossible, to fake.

    Yes that's why I really could never listen to book shelve speakers and be happy with the sound from them.... It is so obvious were the sound is coming from..With large speakers they just fill the room with sound...
