TNX!

Based on the Diamond 9 series manual " All Diamond 9 bookshelfs and floorstanding loudspeaker are magnetically shielded so they can be positioned close to TV screens and monitors with no ill-effects or color distortions"

Had the chance to have Onkyo and Diamond 8 series ( 8.2 & 8.1 ) the combo was warm sounding. As a friend of mine said.. Relaxing ang vocals and not tiring meron detail na konti. :) :)

I have been listening to a pair of 9.1 bookshelves hooked up to a 56-watt valve-buffered IGC for about 5 hours now.  I was in a hurry so I just used a passive pot with an upgraded Sony 502ES surplus cdp for the frontend.

I wasn't expecting much from it but what I experienced was totally unexpected. I'm not much for words nor descriptions but what I heared with my own ears, I honestly liked. I'm very happy, and that's what matters most.

Thank you so very much to my friend who let me have these wonderful speakers.

Hi,

Is it ok to remove the gold-plated metal straps on the Wh 9.2 binding posts and replace them with a short 14ga AudioPro cables like a jumper?

TIA

Thanks for the replies. Was thinking of biwiring, actually. Pero baka sa weekend na para may time to buy the cables and do it. Changing the metal straps is something I can do immediately since I have a meter or so of AudioPro left. Now, where's that cutter ....

I have the 9.2 for about two weeks now and still in the break-in stage. Dunno what to expect really with the changes, but i'm currently happy with the musical output of the 9.2 paired with the HK 135.

That's more likely the 'Explicit' :o version.  ;)

This CD is giving my Wharfes a real workout.
