| Do I have to spend $4000 plus to get a better sounding speaker than GET model 7 ? Sunny, if you are sensitive to the edgy highs, I would add another to your short list. Ascend Acoustics Tower could definitely be an upgrade. They image superbly and with the Raal ribbon tweeter give pinpoint imaging but are not sharp or edgy, a... | |
| Ugly vs Gogeous speakers I agree Tannoys can be nice, some of their Definition series is quite good to me.Those Duevel Planets are something completely different, quite a conversation piece! | |
| My Parasound A21 review and VS Emotiva XPA Well that's great, except Emotiva did their usual behaviour and retired the XPR line some years ago now. No one can buy them. They've done this with line after line, amp after amp and product after product.Why would they retire the XPR line. An... | |
| Ugly vs Gogeous speakers Wolfe_g, my wife is the same. Although when I switched from towers to standmounts in my theater, she didn't quite care for that. Her hearing is quite sensitive, but she just doesn't care about audio whatsoever. | |
| Phono cable recommendations - high performance good value cable I found this thread doing a search on the KLE silver rca plugs. Williwonka's post above is exactly my situation. I've purchased Stager silver solid ic's and recently found their limits. They are solid core conductors, but I'm still getting some... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering Sean, sorry about this odd little diatribe. What a strange conversation. I’ll just ignore such foolishness in the future, hopefully such petty personal attacks are refrained from.I think you’e right, indeed Tekton doesn’t mention anything about an... | |
| Ugly vs Gogeous speakers I think it could be said that some speaker designs are quite unusual in appearance. One either likes it or hates it. Other designs are quite conservative which equates to boring, the boxy design with a narrow width and longer depth made out of s... | |
| how much should you spend on cable? 1) Russel is a quack. It’s easy to hear differences in cables.2) It’s time for Audiogon to make it impossible to add posts to threads that have been dormant for over 5 years. This 15 year old thread should have stayed dormant. | |
| Quicksilver Gold contact enhancer Sorry, I'd never heard of it. | |
| 2017 vs. 1990s - How far we have come Yep, great SQ can be had for so much less these days. I wish I had the time to listen as I did when I was young. | |
| Quicksilver Gold contact enhancer What a great idea for a product, because deoxit may clean things up, but I don't think it enhances the connection like this stuff. | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering Oh, now you're all friendly again. Just what is your deal, James? You go from trying to shame me for the lowly gear I own to, "hey, thanks for linking my thread". You're kind of a jerk, James, I don't think I'd ever want to have any dealings wi... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering It should be stated for anyone reading this thread that 213runnin does not own any good gear so take his comments regarding performance with a BIG grain of salt. You can look at his ownership history through his CAM account and posts. Better we be... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering Sean, it sounds like those trying to pump up the Tekton brand may be exaggerating about this coaxial nonsense since even Tekton isn't reaching that far. BTW, I've owned several coaxial based speakers from Tannoy, that grand storied brand, and Te... | |
| Current NAD integrated amps, what are your impressions? Okay, a month later, and having changed speaker cables, the two pairs of speakers are pretty close in decibel level at a given volume point. And I'd have to say that the 375 is an all around great performer for the price point. As it turns out, ... |
