Thanks for the the notes on the configuration options, very helpful to know and learn.
Thanks again!
The Tower uses a larger RAAL compared to the RAAL developed for the Sierra-1 & NrT. While the Sierra-2 RAAL is made to be a direct fit drop-in with the standard Sierra-1 cabinet, the Tower version of the RAAL WILL NOT fit in the NrT tower tweeter cutout. It requires re-machining of the cutout to accommodate the much larger housing of the big RAAL.
They usually have to perform the upgrade at the factory with you shipping the towers there, unless you have solid woodworking skills and the tools to do it.
