This video was taken 1/2 hour after the system was set up and turned on yesterday. Off to a good start, sonics will improve daily now as the system settles in.

Looks really great.
What is the reason for that much toe-in?

That’s how you set up Alsyvox, but of course you can adjust per personal preference.

Is it in the AlsyVox manual to set up the speakers with that much toe-in?
Have you tried them with less toe-in as well?

This toe-in Is recommended by the designer/ manufacturer. I have tried them in all imaginable ways. It comes down to personal preference but they sound the best when they are towed in with the tweeters/midrange facing the center position.

We are streaming using a wireless repeater as the hotel only had wireless internet available in our room. We then connect to a modem and created a sub network for the Extreme /Ipad/Iphone.

We are also using Roon vs TAS as with show conditions TAS is too messy, even though the sonics are much better to these ears with TAS.

Then add hotel power and the system not being totally settled in quite yet, we are still making VERY GOOD sound imho. It could be a few ticks upwards sonically if we had better internet, were able to use TAS (XDMS seems like a mirage yet) and had better power.

So fast yet timbre is magic still.

After hearing a little bit of Yello in that room I told Bob he should host a weekly dance party with them in Brooklyn

Best sound at the show IMO. They sound even better in Rhapsody's Portland showroom, but they were pretty spectacular at PAF, particularly after settling in for a couple days.
