In Topic: finished the ar4x,s

Yes and it looks great too, got the wood case for the marantz refinished in oiled walnut and had both the speakers lightly sanded and refinished with classic ars kit.  also new grill cloth and new ar badges.  all looks brand new.  I have many visitors wonder where they can get ar 4x,s and I tell the to check ebay.  the big thing most people can;t believe the large sound the little ars put out.  most wives give their blessings to the small speakers.

I sent them in to just speakers and they cut out the cloth and replaced them with foam.   Looks just like new and really made the deep bass come out.  Before with all the shinny crap on the cloth surrounds the where very boomy with no low bass output.

Just be careful with 200 watts on each speaker as you could easily blow the 2axs with all that power.  If the sound becomes distressed turn it down.  I would not even push all 200 watts into my 3as as the mids and tweeters could go.  Common sense is what it takes when listening.

Well,my 2226b only has 26 watts per channel but must be rated different than the sherwood as it will go as loud without distortion as I want and that is only at the 11 oclock setting on the volume dial.  I never knew the 4x  would go as deep in the bass until I started using the marantz.   This new class D amp is for the birds as far a audiophile sound is concerned.  I know it is efficient but that is about all.  Definately not for quality ar speakers.
