Magnepan MG10/QR DSP crossover
HAL:
Nick,
You are most welcome!
The second pair of Orchard Audio Starkrimson Monoblocks GaN Class D amps with the GaN SMPS arrive Monday.
Making 2ft speaker cables for each of them to biamp the MG10QR's to use with the dspNexus 2x8. Will use spade connectors to the 5-way binding posts and tinned wire at the amp end. Have some rosin core 2% silver content eutectic solder for the tinning.
The connections from the dspNexus 2x8 to the monoblocks will be XLR balanced interconnect cables. Will take 15ft cables from the DSP crossover to the monoblocks in the setup. Might even build some if I can find all the parts in storage. :o

The Orchard Audio Starkrimson monoblocks have arrived. This is the newer style chassis than my previous pairs. Connectors are all on one side.
Time to make the 2ft speaker cables from the amps to the MG10/QR speakers 5-way binding posts.
HAL:
Finished the 2ft speaker cables for the amps to the MG10/QR drivers to get the system setup.
Next is time for some driver frequency response measurements to see what is needed.

Have the first step of the room acoustics materials setup to check out. Side walls have some absorption and rear wall has more diffusion. Room needs more absorption, but a lot better than the reverb chamber it was.
Installed the Magna Risers on the Magnepan MG10/QR speakers. The screws on this pair were 1/4-20 x 1-1/4" style where normally they are 10-32's. Just had to remove some of the coating from the screw holes on the stands to fit the original screws.
Next is to wire them up to the Class D amps and start making some acoustic measurements.

I recommend raising the " - 16" off of the floor. Get it up to where it will be more effective!
