Stillpoints Aperture or Synergistic UEF panels Which one?

I had the HFT's originally then teamed with an ATM Atmosphere. While I really like most, if not all of synergistic research stuff, for me anyway, it was a little hi-fi for me - I sent the ATM back - and the standard HFT's - now, in fairness, this was before they came out with the 'warmer' hft 2.0 - which may have been in SR's response to some folks having this 'reaction' -  so perhaps these are great now - which knowing SR they probably are - 

I prefer a warmer, more natural presentation - detail for sure, but there is that fine line between detail and 'tipped' up, if you know what I mean...it's a quest! I will say this, the PPT stuff is very balanced and works as advertised. 

At any rate, I then tried the panels - with the dots and for me, it was a great combo - 8 panels and 10 + dots - I thought about 12 panels and I may add 4 more, but for now I really like what 8 do - I  know that the dealer I bought them from had a generous return policy -  The panels hang by a very small nail, so if you remove them, it's very unnoticeable...they also have a temporary 'tack' type stuff to avoid the nail...they have the same 'tack' for the UEF dots...I think it's best to combine the panels and dots? Best to talk with a rep - I know Alfred is super to deal with. You can try them and send back if they don't do it for you. 

wisper,
Thanks for your update. I have about 30 HFT's. So I hope that the SR products will work with them. I can't remember where but I recall seeing that the HFT's do not work well with the SR panels. Perhaps that's why they came out with the dots.
I tried contacting Alfred and SR to no avail. SR rep said someone would get back to me. That was before I started this thread, must be due to the virus?

It looks like on the SR website it is compatible with everything but the original HFT? It's on the compatibility page for acoustics. Bummer - Alfred is usually pretty good at responding. 

Ozzy, how are the speaker hft's from SR?  these have been on my list to try -  want to make sure that it still stays warm and musical - and doesn't get too 'dry' if you know what I mean? 

Thanks wisper,

I only have the original HFT's and my DIY versions. A lot of them in fact. Wonder why they are not compatible?

The Fed Ex man just now finally delivered the Stillpoints for my trial. So we shall see what the fuss is about. Much more expensive than the SR, but perhaps my HFT's will work magic with them?
