I know it's been a while, but could you provide us with an update on whether 4k with VRR actually works in-game?

Going by pictures of the back of the amplifier, they indeed have the red/positive connections on the inside and black/negative on the outside. This seems a bit unusual, but doesn't matter much (it's most likely for esthetic reasons, to achieve symmetry). Connect left speaker positive (red)out to...

Like said by someone else, it doesn't matter much as long as the left and right connections are done the same way. However, if you want do to it technically correct, it's best to look at which terminal is the positive one (marked "+") and which one is the negative one (marked "-"). Connect...

Great, thanks in advance! Fingers crossed it works...

I have the AKM X4700H. So you're saying that, even with the latest updates and using the adapter, it still won't work reliably? That's a bummer... Can anyone actually using an AKM x700H confirm? I'm primarily interested in 4K/60 + VRR + HDR.

Can anyone confirm whether the adapter with the latest firmware updates finally fixed 4K + VRR? I've seen many reports of people still having issues when connecting for example an Xbox and outputting combinations of 4K, VRR and/or HDR after the adapter was released. I'm wondering whether this is...

Is 80Hz the selected crossover frequency? If so, it makes sense, because no corrections above the crossover frequency would result in no corrections at all.

It's usually the lowest frequencies that have the highest distortion. This Dutch review has full bandwidth distortion measurements. Use Google translate if you don't speak Dutch (like 99.9% of the world). The measured maximum distortions are 5 to 10 dB lower than the other tested speakers: ATC...

I've also added a Stereophile review with measurements of the Rubicon 8.

See Stereo.de test (German) of the Rubicon 2. Look for 'Klirrfaktor' (distortion level). It's measured at 0.3% @ 63 Hz, which is an excellent result. i-Fidelity has also done measurements of several Dali speakers with SMC, but focus on impedance, frequency response and cumulative spectral decay...

Thanks for checking! However, the 5100 is a 2 channel DAC, so probably used for zones 2 and 3. The 5358 is an ADC. The main zone DAC('s) must be hidden somewhere else.

Any updated info yet?

Does anybody know what the adapter actually does? What is the output mode when inputting a mode that results in error without the adapter?

Manually adjust the crossover in the Audyssey app and see which sound you like best? You can store multiple profiles and send them to two different presets in your receiver. Switching for comparison is then made easy.

If you want speakers made in Denmark, then Opticon and up are the way to go. And to be fair, the higher ranges have nearly all components (including cabinet and drivers) designed, made and assembled in-house in Denmark. Unfortunately, it's unrealistic nowadays to expect that at the Spektor...
