| Vandersteen 2CE Signature Speakers I have the 2CE sigII. I had auditioned about 11 brands and various models and liked the sound of the Vandersteen and Magnepan the best. As with many audio components, one has a great amount of choices in speaker brands and models. No need to settl... | |
| Speakers Bought Brand New For The Cost Of A Good Night Out, That "Kick Ass". I have to agree with cd318- While in my younger days I had JBL and Cerwin Vega and Bose speakers that “kicked ass” they did not do justice to the music. Now I have spent a little more money on sources, amplification and speakers and get a more nat... | |
| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers I had heard the Devore speakers at Don Betters place too. Very fine speakers, both of them. I own some Vandersteens which are a better fit for me, and those speakers are somewhat like the Thiel in design. The Devores sounded good with tube amplifi... | |
| Hearing loss. How much do you care about your ability to hear? Nice to know I am not the only old guy losing his hearing. haha. Most everyone should get a hearing test. That is like the “last line” audio component in the chain....of critical importance. | |

| What is your listening chair? “My last recliner look like it had been in WWII. I was actually proud of how damn shabby it looked. (no one else would ever sit in it) Alas I had to toss it.Now my latest recliner is narrow, leather, and powered.Powered sucks.Mainly because I am c... | |
| What is your listening chair? geoffkait. I have agreed with you on various topics in the past, but respectfully, disagree with you on this one. I have tried a few chairs, and the poang is the best for me. No blanket statments, whichever chair floats your boat. | |
| JA Perspecitve Stereophile review Whew I read anything in Stereophile or TAS I scratch my head. Everything is great or “the best I have ever had in my system”. If the reviewer does not like a component, they find a round-about way of saying something luke warm. They never give a n... | |
| Moving from Analog to Digital +1 on the Bluesound Node 2. I will add the customer service for technical issues is top notch. | |
| Outstanding service in high-end audio: Anecdotes, please. I'll start with Klaus and Duane Perspective is everything and I have to be honest. I had the worst experience with Klaus Bunge that I ever had in audio. Really got excited about owning Odyssey gear but when I finally took the plunge and purchased his gear I had hum and spurious ... | |
| Basic system for living room I like the Parasound Integrated amp and whichever bookshelf speakers you might like. Listening is everything. Brands I would audition are Paradigm, Monitor Audio, KEF, B&W, and many others. If you get the amp new, you could buy a pair of speak... | |
| Basic system for living room Do you prefer digitalmusic? Library of digital files? Computer as source? Will you stream music? How about analog? Turntable and record albums? What kind of music? Jazz and acoustic or pop and rock? Classical? Size of room? Remote access important... | |
| Digital Audio for Dummies I agree with @rhljazz, @uberwaltz, and others on the Bluesound Vault 2. A very nice piece of audio gear that takes the computer out of the equation. Another note- One of the best things to know about Bluesound is the committment they have placed i... | |
| Review Audioquest Hurricane (part 1) Yes we must have fun with this hobby, I agree. When Bo begins to add his two cents, I must admit I laughed till the tears came. | |
| New system! That is a very big jump. Have fun now. What will be your source? Just a note, for home theatre listening it is sometimes important to have similar timbre with all speakers and also level matching. This is more ideal with speakers of the same brand... |
