Focal Aria 948 review—The Absolute Sound
I believe Julie Mullins talks about toe-in in this review…
Holla at me if you head into Metry in the near future.
I am setting up a “temporary” rig in the rental house this weekend…it’s gonna be mostly Sony ES & Nakamichi components (DAT decks, cassette decks, power amps, and preamps), and will have an Anthem pre-pro running video in passthru mode to the Sony A1E OLED 65” that I am using as my main TV (projector and screen were ruined).
I will also attempt to get the new Lyra Etna cartridge installed onto the VPI tonearm if time (and patience) permits. I will probably run it through my old Lehmann Black Cube phono stage (the Lehmann made it through the storm undamaged, as it was stored along with the Focal Utopias in a back bedroom closet which did not take on water).
We have about 5-6 more weeks until the architect has the plans for the new house complete. Realistically, we should begin the construction phase in early January. My guess is 9-10 months for construction and move in, which puts us at around this time next year for setting up the new audio room (24’x37’x10’…WxLxH). Everything (insurance, architect, contractor, supplies) is taking twice as long as it should—but it’s out of my control, so ya just have to deal with it and not get too frustrated. We will get there…eventually.

Ok, thanks, will do.
That sucks about the house, especially when you’re at the mercy of all those other people. Hopefully the wait will pay off in the end…
