Nice set up archiep!
I'm sure you will not be contented with the 9.1, and later on push a little higher.

Enjoy your new toys!

Nagpalit na din ako ng speakers.  Binitawan ko na Mission tower speakers ko, and replaced it with wharf 9.5.  Until now hindi pa masyado break in.  May kahirapan i-break in unlike the missions.  But definitely bang for the buck as they say.
I will just have to save some moolah to upgrade my Denon AVR. Medyo bitin sa 85w.
Shortest way to upgrade is Matzter's Bada power amp.  kahit two channels lang muna.
Check mo din yun chie, may pre-outs naman yan denon mo.

Paktay ka ngayon sa DVD collection.  Kakapitan ka na din ng SARS! hehe.

On the DVD, since na kabit ko na setup ko, I don't plan in buying the DIBIDI. I just find it sayang for the HT setup that I have.

BTW, si Reich gusto na din mag setup... kahapon sinamo ko kila Sonny, ayun napapa isip na.. mag floorstanding ata

accessible naman daw.

the good thing here is the potential that can be unleashed once the caps have been changed to polypropylene. ive noticed a trend in some speakers, tinitipid ang internal wiring and crossover caps.

Kaso, yung dealer already stopped dealing this name. all Harman International products na lang binibenta. I got this from their closed-out sale kaya tambay lang for lack enough space. Paradigm ang naka-duty....

anyone tried the mundorf (or any polypropylene cap) tweak on their diamond 9's? i might try it with my 9.5 but want to know first if it would be worth it. as from the diamond 9 brochure on page 10, capacitor is electrolytic and resistor is 2.2 ohms ceramic. any possible substitute for the resistor?
