I currently own Vivid Oval 1.5 speakers and have applied the SAM profile at 100 percent. It works well and I like it. I have an opportunity to move to the special edition speakers (Oval 1.5 SE) but don't see a specific SAM profile on the Devialet site. Also, I live in Charleston, S.C. and there is no opportunity for Devialet to come here with its mobile SAM lab. Anyway, the special edition has a different crossover and a new mid-bass driver, so I doubt I can use the existing SAM profile for the 1.5 speakers. Any thoughts?
