Alpair 12 break-in question: 2mm?

[Plott]

Well, yes, that's the question...
I still have to make comparisons, so I'm not totally sure, but I think I like the Alpair more.
I think it is maybe more clean in the upper register.
Both are great drivers with different charactes

Istvan,

You like the Alpair 12P more than the SB Acoustics 8" FR that was in place earlier?

Well... objection, Your Honor!
After long listening sessions I think I like the SB more
The Alpair is a great speaker but sometimes - and this is my experience with the 7MS and 7 Pluvia too - it tends to be shouty, at least in this config. So I switched back to the SB, but will see, maybe I just have to tweak the xo further for this driver. It's fun
