I'm no expert but I do have Cyrus CD6s, 8VS2 Amp, PSX-R Power Amp and 8 POWER units. I
also have a pair of Spendor S6e speakers. The speakers are bi-wired. It is in a
smallish living room of about 14’ x 13’ bay window, with carpets and 3 sofas and
curtains.
I find that the system,
primarily from the CD6s CD player, sounds trebly, harsh, brittle and over bright
notably so on quieter more acoustic music or some rock CD’s. It has the detail
for sure and it is lively but some music almost hurts to listen to it and is
made all the more annoying because you can’t adjust bass and tone etc. For a
£5000 system it doesn’t have a warmth and depth to the sound that I had expected
and hoped for. The speakers are not close
to the walls and are about 7-8 feet apart. The power amp is connected to the
bottom bass and the integrated amp is connected to the top tweeters on the
Spendors. I tried wiring it so that the power amp is connected to the top
tweeters and the integrated amp is wired to the bass but that sounded dire and
muffled as if I’d done something wrong.
Any help or advice you can give would be really appreciated.
