Will an Atomic 50:50 be enough to power the passive CLR for loud live use and retain the linear qualities?
I presume that this can't somehow avoid the Fletcher-Munson effect though?
Scott Peterson said:Assuming you are a human being, no you cannot avoid the FLE.
I haven't seen any mention of the impedance of these new Jay-cubes, 8 ohms?
No argument.I'm just not sure I can wait several months for this and, from overwhelming feedback I've seen here, it will be hard for the Atomic to best the 12-sma. Any arguments regarding my last statement? From those that have heard both or have been a 12-sma believer?
This is all very exciting, the speculation that is. Sorry if I missed this but when will these be available. Was it 3 months? From when? Today. Thanks for the reminder.
I've been looking at the RCF NX 12-sma as part of my first modeling setup, along with Axe II. I'm just not sure I can wait several months for this and, from overwhelming feedback I've seen here, it will be hard for the Atomic to best the 12-sma. Any arguments regarding my last statement? From those that have heard both or have been a 12-sma believer?
Maybe I didn't search hard enough for the 12-sma's shortcomings. I hate sour koolaid.
Most of us here simply have never heard transparency at the level of the CLR.
1 I have direct experience with the Frazier monitor that the CLR is patterned afterSo how you can claim: "You will have better than your best studio reference monitors on stage with you"?
I just want to hear what I have been missing already...
It seems so. I use a floor-based modeler and love the small size. It'd be nice if the wedge were tolexed and weighed less, but I'd rather keep my $300-400.Am I the only one turned off by how small these are?

2 Jay has plainly stated that he will not release any product that does not meet his standards
3 Jay has plainly stated that the CLR meets his standards.
I understand your arguments, POV, and I know that you've playing through Jay's rig (not the CLR).
But still, it's creating a hype in my eyes. The production unit doesn't even exist yet. Furthermore, I simply refuse to believe that all engineers from other companies are all idiots or profit-only driven whiteboard fanatics.
My response is also initiated by, how should I put it, the evident change in attitude exhibited in some of these threads.
If a Fractal (or Fractal-related) competitor comes up with something, anticipation builds up and beta reports are posted, lots of people will make fun of all that anticpation/hype. I always find it remarkable how that attitude changes if it comes to a product that's from within the "inner circle".
Oh well, maybe it's just my current mood.
Hold on now. Back up a second. Read more carefully Yek. I didn't say this.Furthermore, I simply refuse to believe that all engineers from other companies are all idiots or profit-only driven whiteboard fanatics.
