hey Prithvi,
come on man. u were killing urself man. think nothing of it. actually i'm sorry if our being there aggravated ur situstion. Tooo bad for u that u are not able to go. i saw u man. give urself plenty of rest. hope to see you 'back' (sorry could'nt resist that ) to being Urself.
BTW plugged in Murthy's jumpers yesterday but could not make a proper test. will listen to them for a couple of days and then try switching back to the old ones and see the difference. thanks for a great time. will, love to come and listen to the d15s when they have completeley broken in.
BTW how long do the Wharfedale diamonds need to break in? is there a break in period for cables and interconnects?

Get well soon .
Ben

p.s:it was great to meet Arj. hope next time more of us can get together.and what a great amp . that sugden really blew my mind off. still can't believe only 20-25 watts!!!

ben,
it was great having u and arj too. the finesse jumpers need to be burnt-n for about 50 hours then do the swap. as mentioned earlier, if you do not like or cant make out the diff then ur most welcome to return them. murhty and i dont believe in selling them like normal products, thats why we offer it as for 2 weeks and only if u make out the diff to be better then buy.

the d15 still needs more burn-n/

The concert was great ! managed to go for it at the last minute....glad I did. That man can play the guitar !

manek.

WE heard the D15 at prithvis place..what an awesome sound at only 25-30% of burn in. although Prithvi kept cribbing about the lack of detail, to me even at that level, it shows why it is special.

A very good Midrange..surprising clear and defined Bass..the midbass was a bit muddly but that is definitely due to lack of burn in as well as a small amount of Room Boom (around 50Hz as Pritvi informed me !)
the treble is sweet..pwerhaps more sweeter than realistic on the violin..but again would like to listen to in after the Burn in !.

also for those looking at buying a cdp, Prithvi has a pre-owned Meridian 506 CDP for sale at a To-be-Grabbed price..something I would have done on the spot yesterday if it were not for some upcoming travel plns

hey Ben, nice meeting you too !

cheers!

Hi! Guys,
My back is still screwed, so no Mark Knofler concert. At present he is my room playing exclusively for me on the ProAc D15s full tilt at 200W rms,:D I love it man, you got to hear him full blast on the ProAc (sadly nothing to beat him live in person ) Maybe next time, till then blasting the kingdom come out of the D15s and man freaking out. (nice way to burn the ProAcs in!!!) My own rock concert.

He Ben you & Arj u should hear this at full blast, even though the D15s are not burnt-in. It sounds a total new animal, rather speaker. Especially Mark Knofler Sultans of Swings. I envy all you guys going for the concert today. Man I wish I was ok. Cant even stand for 15mins, too much pain.

Have a blast and do give me your feedback on the concert, you lucky dudes!
