I have both SMS-1 manuals, several sweep tone CDs, calibrated microphone with stand, and a monitor for displaying the various videos generated by the SMS-1. I prefer the Outlaw manual. I actually have three SMS-1s, but use only one. An Ayre KX-5 Twenty preamp connects to the input of the SMS-1. I've tried a couple of high-pass crossovers between the KX-5 and VX-5 amp even though Charles Hansen discouraged it, but it turned out he was right; the sense of openness was compromised.
