| Speakers in the range of $3 to $4.5k per pair? Dynaudio Contour -- either Special 25 (stand-mount) or S3.4 (floor standing). you should be able to find them on Audiogon market place. | |
| Dynaudio C2 versus S5.4 ? Thanks for you guys' response!Nrostov, since you've auditioned S5.4 and C2 side-by-side and didn't find much of difference. I will assume I will be well off with EITHER. I've been monitoring both S5.4 and C2 sales on Audiogon and the price is NOT ... | |
| Best drink while listening to your rig? to keep this thread alive!!!Like I said in 2003, the BEST to drink while listen to any genre of music is Chinese liquor. They are not for weak minded, or "stomched", as most of them are over 100 proof(50% of alcohole by volume), but thwy are the b... | |
| Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive? Lexus LS430 2005. Comfortable. Handling is surprisingly good for such big luxuary car. Interior appoiments are much nicer than its German counterparts. Reliablility is __Legendary__. Benz's extremely poor quality in recent years really puts me off... | |

| Dynaudio C2 versus S5.4 ? Thanks Kthomas. I assume the quasi 3-way is working fine for C2 then. I am just not so sure about it comparing to the more conventional 3-way design of S5.4. I am a huge Dynaudio fan myself -- currently have Special 25's and SC center channel. I h... | |

| Harbeth Monitor 30 vs. Dynaudio Special 25 Dynaudio Special 25 will have my vote, since I have them :-)Thanks to the new Esotar2 tweeter, the mid and high are heartachingly beautiful. From what you described your favorite music, they are ideal candidates for you.enjoy! | |
| Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive? i think differently from Gliderguider and Pehare. The intention of saving the planet is fine but may be too naive and won't make any difference at all. The BIGGEST energy consumer is NOT American car drivers, but the newly thriving third world ecn... | |
| Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive? new toy -- just got my brand new 2005 BMW M3 Coupe with SMG!!! Awesome machine, the power, the handling, the style, the luxury, ALL combined into one perfect entity. | |
| Anyone try APC's conditioner? believe it or not, I used to work for APC back in mid 90s. Good, reputable company with solid engineering although more toward practical than performance. But the rest like Monsters, I don't even trust their engineering! Not sure their new conditi... | |
