Speaker cable for focal scala utopia
I also have a few Pad power cables (20th Anniversary) in my system which sounded great.  I thought about trying the Neptune cables but went with the Synergistic CTS instead.  I guess I will have to save up for the Dominus cables. Thanks for the su... 
Speaker cable for focal scala utopia
Thanks for the suggestion M.  Have you try their Redwood or Firewood series?  I was told they also match well with the scala.  Are you using tube or SS?  I am using SS amp and tube pre. But I doubt they are the cause of my problem.  
Krell K-300i vs Lyngdorf TDAI-3400
I have Lyngdorf 2170 and also would like to use as room correction rather than Dac and amplifier.   Can anyone help with the connections? 
Help with settng Lyngdorf 2170
Everything you mentioned above,  I have.  It just sounded different from what I am used to.  I guess i will try to use it as a pre- amp. because I room correction works really well.  If that does not work,  then I'll replace this for the RP-1.  Th... 
Help with settng Lyngdorf 2170
I have not try it yet. Just want to know if it can be done before going crazy with rearranging the cables.  I am still using it as the main unit.  With the RP on,  the bass is tighter but the soundstage is not as deep and warm as mine system.   
Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400.
Thanks for the advice guys.  I just wanted to test what kind of improvement in sound quality i will get from having the room correction added.  It took me awhile to put my system together and I like what I have, so I really don't want to get rid o...

There are  2 line in and 1 out.   
Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400.
I just bought the 2170 and would like to use it only as a room correction unit.  I like my system setup but my room is small.  Is there an easy way to set the 2170 between my pre-amp and power amp and still have the RP works effectively?  Any help... 
Need Help With Focal Scala Placement
Thanks for all of your suggestions.  I'll will give the long wall a try first.  If that does not work,  then back more room treatments and speakers movements.  I really don't want to part with these speakers because I know what they can do,  but I...

That means the speakers have to be right against the front wall since the speakers are more than 2' deep.  Maybe I'll give it a try.   Thanks for the suggestion.  
Need Help With Focal Scala Placement
Won't that be sitting too close to the speakers?  
Is It Possible?
Jonh1,You're right.  The higher the volume,  the better the Focal sounds compares to the Quad.  I'm using Synergistic CTS SC now which seems to be good for fit for both speakers.  
Is It Possible?
Glupson,Thanks for the advice.  I do plan to keep both since they both have their unique sound, I don't mind switching back and forth once in awhile.  They both make music comes alive.    
Is It Possible?
Ron, I think this guy only specializes in Quad.  Like I said,  my friend drop them off for me.  I'll check to see if I can get the phone number for you.  
Is It Possible?
I love the sound of the Quad,  just not the look.  Don't get me wrong,  the Scala performs very well on its own,  I am just floored how well the 63s does against it.  I'm glad I was able to picked them up for so cheap.  Now I can enjoy both of them.
