Sounds good Tony, the Rosso Fiorentino Siena's (Italian, must be great:) are incredible looking speakers. I am sure they sound as such. Talk about a system that has evolved! Did you have the JPS cables when you had the BE20's? How was the sound if you did?
Rich, I found that Exemplar uses Auri Caps(slightly warm with bloom, slightly forward midrange sound, not the last word for resolution but good) I believe he builds them to Ushers spec but with his parts.
I talked to Danny at GR today (man he know his stuff!!) and he said that he will build the XO's to ushers spec with his parts which is Soni Caps(smooth rich sound with more resolution and detail than the Auri Caps. Dan said that it will be much better than the stock XO's but not as good as if he had my speaker to test and tune. Man I am so tempted to just send him one of my speakers...but I have to draw the line somewhere. I do not know the inductors or coils they both use. Rich, knowing crossovers, which overall cap do you think would be a better fit? So many directions to go!
