Yes this for sure @Hollywood plus you have three brand new components all of which will need their break in period. None of them will be where they end up yet. The whole thing will likely be in a bit of flux for a little while but by the sounds of it you have a nice little set up there and it’s going to sound great!

I definitely had an adjustment coming from the Revels to the L100s.
Although to be honest in my case most of the adjustment involved uncontrolled tears of joy and a lot of giddy sobbing.
I have no idea how I'm still married.

and don't forget the cables
Yeah the speaker cable for sure. I’m far less convinced about optical cable break in. Which is a nice way of saying it doesn’t exist. Light pulses are light pulses lol!

When she said she was going out to buy me "lots of presents".
That was June.
I'm sure she'll be back soon.

It's been a while since I demoed mine. But are you able top spread them out a bit more ? You might be limiting your stereo spread/imaging by having them this close together tbh. @HiFi Guy

Not a fan either, to each his own on musical taste, but he nailed the Linton'sMine too but without Korn and Tool and I hate him

Is there anyone you like?
On YouTube doubtful but he’s particularly irksome. In real life loads, none are like him…

Not really
Space is already tight as it is.EDIT: I have played around a little with their placement and toe-in and it has made somewhat of a difference

This is my current receiver/Amp. It's strong enough for the Lintons right?

Thinking about upgrading the speakers now so they'll be nice and broken in by the time I have the cash for the prima Luna Evo 200

Probably won’t hurt anything but it’s not an ideal match. The Kenwood is rated for 8-16 ohm loads. The Lintons are rated at 6 ohms.This is my current receiver/Amp. It's strong enough for the Lintons right?

This basically means the speakers will demand roughly 25% more current than the Kenwood is rated to deliver.

Ahh was hoping it worked the other way where 8ohms would work for 16. Guess I need to wait then or keep an eye out for something very cheap.
As long as you don’t crank it you should be ok.
