Anyone here try an ASW Absolute with a 5E3?

What do you think?

Dead thread...but oh well.

I just tried an Elegante in my Crema Wheat...pretty cool
Haven't been able to try the Absolute yet.
I know that's not very informative but I don't imagine anyone's going to be reading this thread again so...

I need to get on that.

I have a KTS 70 in my hot rodded 5e3. I am definitely a huge fan! I know it's a ceramic and the absolute is a low power AlNiCo, but I can at least speak to the quality of the ASW product.

Yeah, I got an ASW Crossroads and an Elegante at the same time. A friend and I took the stock Scumback and both ASWs to a recording hall and did some tests so we could have an A/B/C reference point. I just loved the presence, tightness, punch, etc. of the ASW stuff...not cheap but pretty bloody good. I decided, for the time being, to leave the Crossroads in my Crema...but as soon as I can get my hands on the Absolute I'll be swapping stuff around. Then again, the Elegante sounded awesome so I don't necessarily need the Absolute...
