The Russel is superb.
Never heard them, but on paper a coherency freak like me would most likely agree. Just not crazy about running the full range signal through a gaggle of op amps. Maybe with Mac amps, it wouldn't matter. ;)
So are the Scaenas although I suspect the best bass came from the original bass speaker design, not the later versions.
Never heard Porzolli's Pipe Dreams either. I have a couple Jurassic Park soundtracks and should revisit that one! My favorite bass recording heard at Sea Cliff was Flying Dragons and Leaping Tigers from Yim Hok Man (HP gave me a copy). The SLAMM! on that recording is quite impressive. When I stayed there and listened alone with the giant Alon Exotica Grand Reference, I confess that I reduced woofer tower output a tad on the Dahlquist active crossover. After telling him that, he left my setting at least for my stay. :)
