| Audio influencers on YouTube hiding comments from public view Millercarbon was / is a bag of hot air, the king of junk tweaks. He would promote a Sandwich-bag of baloney put on his best in the world tekton speakers. We’re all entitled to our opinions I’ve certainly got a few. To a point he was laughable the ... | |

| Why the huge increase in the price of Sonus Farber Amanti G5 speakers. @ghdprentice Cynical ? Certainly you’re not suggesting people that choose not to purchase a product are dumb.

| Why the huge increase in the price of Sonus Farber Amanti G5 speakers. Without a doubt the Covid thing opened the door to price gouging.

| What is a good all around high quality speaker to purchase? A perfect candidate would be the PS audio Aspen FR 20 ! If you want more of a traditional woody design there’s an endless list of Sonus Fabre Amati up grades available. Having said that with the FR 20s in place the Sonus would be history. Why ware... | |
| ??? How Do You Determine How Far You Can Take An Amp When Choosing Speakers ??? There is no rule of thumb. Once you get the BS budget etc. out of the equation it is quite simply sound appreciation and how do you give that in advice form. Certainly speakers have an operating range in specification posted. Doesn’t take a rocket... | |
