And I will add 'classy' with a minimalistic soupÃ§on for full flavor without all the electronic haze.

( I think I just gave myself an ice cream headache with this last one...)

Nice BC setup, BCarnaval!!!

I noticed that you are using BC jumpers on your speakers. You may wish to consider in the future a bi-wire configuration with another set of the BC92's - it did wonders on my rig (BC26 MKI to Paradigm Studio 100 v2's). I currently have 2 runs of BC91's for the low end and 1 run of BC92's for highs and it is just awesome. It really opened up the presentation, bass control and detail allot.

Have fun!!

Mark

Hey Rejean,

If you do borrow a pair of BC92, let us know what it does for your Totems. I'm a BIG fan of "shotgun bi-wiring".

Hey George,

I have tried bi-wiring on my arros,sure there is more of everything,too much maybe.
I think those little speakers are pushed to their limit,one click too much on the shallco and the woofer are going to fall on the floor.
Arros are great little speakers but surely no match for the monster hiden in my DAR.
Speakers are the next toys on my list.
Meanwhile, today i could not resist the call of a md102t

and i also replaced the BC62 for a BC68

It's a beauty! Good choice.

Thanks Mike

It sound like there is a cd playing,dead quiet.
I have forgotten how important the source is,suddenly my arros are not so bad on the lower bass

Size does matter in some cases. When I replaced my former speakers in 2007 with their bigger brothers, it made a world of difference.

( http://www.tlp-audio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=725 )

Now, those smaller speakers reside in my analog/vintage/video room. They are wired off the high level outputs of my Mirage BPSi powered sub woofer and are electronically crossed at 80 Hz where the sub takes over. Now they can handle the most dynamic noise artifacts of any movie.

Here is a few mods to my system
Now installed on the long wall,it make the stage a lot bigger

For you folks out there wondering how the plc fx2 compare to the bc6000....night and day.
Everything in my sound went up a major notch

I hope this mod doesn't void the warranty

Very neat RÃ©jean! I suggest you place your BC6000 under the shelf of your DAR or empty middle shelf for a better aesthetic and integrated look.

From the picture, we can't see you listening position. Maybe a 5Â° to 10Â° toe-in for tighter stereo image? Just my $0.02.
