XLR to RCA to XLR
The KUBE 200 has LF and HF contour adjustments, plus bypass and tape monitor loop switches. The HF contour does provide a subtle boost or cut, but I haven't messed with it much. The bypass definitely works, although I don't know how "true" of a by...

Since my last post, I was lucky enough to speak with Bill Whitlock of Jensen, who is both very knowledgeable and willing to give thoughts and suggestions about my situation. He observed that the gain mismatch I am getting would be best remedied by...

Thanks everyone for all the helpful info!Here is more info on my setup and my latest experiment...My preamp has both RCA and XLR outputs, which can be used simultaneously.I only want the KUBE on the LF in a biamp'd config. I have read that even if...

Kef 104.2 Speakers. Suggestions Discussion Forum
OK so since my last post, I have now replaced the tweeters with the substitutes currently offered by KEF. They brought back a lot of the sizzle that was missing and so far I don't find them harsh.However, after repeated listening, I started to not... 
Kef 104.2 Speakers. Suggestions Discussion Forum
I have a circa 1990’s pair of non-bi-wire KEF 104.2’s that I purchased recently. I have wanted a pair since they came out and was able to obtain them for a steal.Of course, I wasn’t aware of all the caveats involved with owning a pair of these unt...
