audio set-up for beginners [continued]

[gaol]

Boss Arn, haven't heard of that pairing. Usually, I get to listen to a Helix-Audible Physics combo. But to give you an idea, Audison are dark sounding amps. It matches Focal the way how B&W(dark) and Rotel(clinical) are a pair made in heaven. So that matched with the warm and laid back Audible Physics may or may not fit your liking.

That can still be retuned to your sweet spot Boss Arn. If you got FB, join SQ Manila. Paeng/cyberdraven of pdvd creates invites from time to time. Usually malapit lang sa atin, around the East area. My installer, SimpleSound, got them installed in his car. His next door neighbor, also got Audible Physics installed in his Santa Fe.

I see your point, thanks! Your analogy with B&W+Rotel is very helpful and now it's also clearer to me why you suggested I go for the Focals given my PSBs. What's a good match for the Audible Physics--what did simplesound/his neighbor pair it with? Would the Alpine PDX-V9 be a better partner?

Sent a request to join SQ Manila. Hopefully, I could get to join an EB one time.
