I'll have to experiment without them.
I like the ensemble, but the black formica finish was peeling over time and I had to keep fixing it.
With the crossover adjustments on the 970 I can probably unhook the modules and just use the sub although sometimes I just use the bass modules for music.
Have fun setting up your new system.
The Ensombles have the same cross over in either unit. If you recall, it does not matter how you wired them. I just unhooked them and let them play large. Adjust the sub cross over to about 150 (gotta guess) and I like the sound better.
It was a great system in its day, especially for the money.
I wish I could use them somewhere else. My sats have like 4 different coats of paint on them from moving or changing colors! The holes are getting smaller!
I bought dipoles to match the front a few years later after getting the initial set up.
Cambridge with Henry Kloss made some nice prodcuts before he died. The Company is much different now once they started opening up stores and expanding.
Natural progression.
Its happeing to Outlaw also these days. They don't quite have the "Rouge" persona as they did a while
