Hi,
I tested! 0% SAM still keep the advantage of SAM in the upper frequencies what ever SAM is said to only handle up to 150 Hz.
With my Raidho X1 the sound character with and without SAM is the same but of course with SAM everything gets more coherent. The hike in bass with SAM is welcome and to my ears does not change the 'bumb' free character I have from the X1 in the 50-120 Hz area which so many other speakers have (to my ears). Only thing to wish for would be that the lowest bass notes would stay at higher sound pressures but that would be impossible for a 4" driver I guess and magic has its limitation. Anyway at normal listening levels people ask for the subs but I just tell them that these little gems digging out 25 Hz bass notes.
Anyone buying or for that matter auditioning a pair of Raidhos make sure they have at least +1000 hours of running in as it takes that time for sure and there is plenty of ? during the break in procedure.
Foggy, how long do you estimate break in time with the D2's?
