Story of warm sound

[anm]

Getting too little time to play with the thiels.
Last evening, after I was back from office and dinner, with 2 beers in my belly, decided I need to add some warmth to the speakers.

Switched amp from AVR to c375, attached to speaker A. - WARM
Switched pre-amp in from subout of AVR to main out of Lyrita. - WARM
Connected NAD CDP to Lyrita. - WARM

Started playing. Damn - it was SO warm! All brightness was gone and it sounded really crappy. Nothing in treble.

Then I realized that I had not switched the speakers from B to A in c375

Subwoofers were playing instead of the Thiels LoL!!!!

My wife had already left the room before I could play the "fixed" sound. Will post more impressions of WARM sound

This sure has to do with the warm beverage?

You have a musical subwoofer mate and all you need now is a tweeter and a couple of beers for it to sound complete .

On a serious note, you may have crossed your subwoofer too high if you are missing only the treble.

passive sealed subs no crossover built in. For movies AVR gives the crossover and NAD c375 powers them, for music I don't use them.

Bolded the important parts..
You get high pretty easily..

BTW, you dont need the sub if the the amp is NAD c375. It is inherently warm.

But this was really funny to read hehe
