Default Best setup yet!

Think I found my unicorn, or at least a really good looking pony with a cone strapped to it's head!

Arc Moto 600.4 and Focal KRC 165's

Rode up to work this morning, 70+ 11/17 volume and it was as loud and clear. Listening to Van Halen I, Running with the Devil, Eruption, You Really Got Me, Ain't Talkin' About Love, I'm the One, Jamie's Cryin, and Atomic Punk was as far as I got.

Eruption and Jaimie's Cryin were phenomenal!

This is THE best 2 speaker setup I've had or heard yet. So very impressed

Lids going in soon, then maybe some 4" KRC's up front somewhere

Well that is good news indeed. I've been waiting patiently for your thoughts on the KRC's. Will be looking forward to the video!!!

Yeah, I have polyfill in the pods but I'm still not sold that it really does anything

With your last focal experience it is good to know they are taking the power. Hoping the 200 I'll be feeding my Hertz set will be enough.

I think the 150w is right in the KRCs wheelhouse. With the SPL listed, they just don't need a shix ton of juice. Think they are 160 Max.

Just put about 1000 miles on mine the last several days and they just keep sounding better. (BT4180 powered).

Great news Bunker!!!! Glad your ears like them!!!
