Tell us what kinds of music that you can listen to now that you are no longer tied to "miniature music". And please tell us why.

I had a three way with the same 12 inch 15 mm xmax woofer I have now along with a quality 5.25 inch Vifa mid and an Audax 1 inch dome tweeter. Total SPL of the system was about 92. I loved it but.....

I'll start

1. 1st of all, Pipe organ. I rarely listened to my organ recordings at all. Now they sound big, like in a church. People say it sounds like you are in a church.

2. Solo piano. I could play it as loud as I play it now, but it never really sounded like piano. It seemed like all the sounds were not there. Now it sounds like there is a piano in the room with me.

3. Renee Fleming with orchestral accompaniment. The dynamic range from almost a whisper to full loud is all there. Before if I played it softly, it didn't get very loud, and if I played it loudly, it distorted, but it couldn't play softly. Now it goes from leaves rustling to full orchestra with no distortion anywhere along the way. I get tears in my eyes listening to her. The complete lack of any distortion at any volume level I care to listen at, after almost 5 years of listening is still astounding to me.

I have more but I don't want to steal other people's thunder
