Re: Mixing Sierra 1"s with NRT Center?
Hey Dan,
I have Sierra 1's as my LCR. Just got them this past July. I upgraded from old Boston Acoustics CR series from the 90s. It was a huge upgrade in 'fullness' of sound, especially male voices, and dialogue intelligibility. I have them all crossed at 80 htz. I have not heard the NRT tweeter or your Def Tecs to compare, but I would be surprised if you're not happy with dialogue intelligibility and clarity with the standard Sierra 1.
I listen to music more now than I ever have because it sounds so good! I listen in stereo with the sub and it is so much better than the old Bostons. They couldn't image at all, ha.
Re: Mixing Sierra 1"s with NRT Center?
I say all S1's. I think you'd be most happy going that route.
Re: Mixing Sierra 1"s with NRT Center?
Thanks Matty and dt! Looks like I'll be calling Dave and Dina Monday. The anticipation is killing me. I greatly appreciate everyone's help. Happy weekend!

Dan, did you order them? If so, when will you get them? Let us know what you think. I'm excited for you! :D
Re: Mixing Sierra 1"s with NRT Center?
Yes, got the order in with Dina. She said 2-4 days for assembly then UPS ground with tracking info. I'm in North Carolina so with the holidays and all I guess it will be awhile. That's OK, I just got the Oppo 203 yesterday. The owners manual is like reading a tech book and I'm on post #2830 on the 203 owners thread on AVSforum. Daunting to say the least. Can't wait til it's all set up, dim the lights, pour a glass of wine and start the music! :o

Great! I live in VA and I ordered mine right before July 4th. With the holiday I believe it took 7-9 days to get them. The waiting was tough. Oppo 203 should be nice. I listen to most of my music through the google play music service. Streams at 320 kb/sec. Good enough for me. I am getting a turntable tomorrow. Never done much with vinyl. It should be fun!
Re: Mixing Sierra 1"s with NRT Center?
What kind of turntable? I bought a Music Hall mmf 2.3 a year ago. The Oppo will be my first jump into sacd and dvd-audio.
Re: Mixing Sierra 1"s with NRT Center?
It's a standard one from probably the 70s, haha, MCS 6502. Putting in a new belt and a Shure M97E cartridge (something like that). See how much I enjoy vinyl before I spend much more money on it.
