So I am running a KILLER little 2 channel setup that consists of:
Gr Research N2X speakers
UFW-10 ( with the 650 watt amp, so much better than the other amps)
Marantz 3200 preamp
Marantz 140 amp
Thorens TD-166 mkII
SuperDAC 707 USB fed Flac files via computer
Needless to say I am in love with this system.
I do have a couple questions though about exactly what a couple of old features do to the sound:
1) What does the Loudness button do? When I have it on the bass tightens up the highs are expanded and overall it sounds far better.
2) There is a Tone Mode switch that I can set to out,in,250hz,4khz or 250hz+4khz....and when set to the numbered settings it sets the turnover frequency so if you select 250hz the bass is set at 250hz versus 500hz adn the 4khz is set from 2khz to 4khz....and then if you select the 250+4 then it does both.....what exactly is TURNOVER FREQUENCY?
The manual doesn't really explain either of these.
Here is a pic of the setup...not quite finished....waiting on my stands for the speakers then they will be off to the sides of the dresser.
