| ELP Laser Turntable & Trickle Down There's quite a bit of "information" if you will (almost entirely anecdotal) at Arthur Salvatore's website, including the big blowup with the then current distributor, Smart Devices, who nixed their relationship with the line and issued warnings a... | |
| The most unique style speakers that sound good? Jadis Eurhythmies, hands down. | |
| what's under your Parsifals? Jimmy Hoffa! | |
| New Orleans, La. Always on the last Thursday of the month starting @ 7PM.Host location is delivered via email early in the month. | |
| Hum from Atma-Sphere MP-1 Power Supply? Sounds like the transformer is on the way out. It happened to MP-1 and it got progressively worse until the unit shut down. Time for a visit to Lake Woebegone. | |
| xover settings for Avantgarde owners - survey. I've had Duos for six years. After about six months of use I dropped the XO setting from factory default (can't remember what it is, 170 hz, maybe?) to 140 hz and haven't looked back. | |
| Questions from a new Loricraft user Sorry, Bill, but in this case, it's the manual. I just got my PR-3 back from Smart Devices. Some part of the internal drive mechanism unscrewed itself and made the machine inop but your problem sounds different than mine since mine wouldn't work o... | |
| Speakers to hang on to for LIFE Probably Sound Ultimates or the big Maggies would be ideal. If you can jump high enough you grab hold of the top frames of the speakers and "hang on" from now 'til doomsday, kinda like with monkey bars. However, if we're talking abouth speakers we... | |
| Basis Debut Mk v or Walker or Brinkman ? Like Rushton, I'm a Walker owner of long standing (9years). I have a friend with the full blown Brinkman system but have had no experience with Basis.A couple of personal observations would be that the Walker is not really that fussy to set up but... | |
| Stealth Varidig Sextet Break In Period? Agree with TJ. Mine sounded great immediately with minor improvements wrought over time. It is the most neutral and "not there" digital IC in my experience. | |
| Einstein OTL amps experience Hey DocS. As an A/sphere MP-1/M60 owner running them on Duos, I can only say that I wished I lived in S Fla. to be on hand for this most interesting sounding shootout. Please keep us posted. I think the worst possible outcome will be a great one. | |
| Where do I make the long run IC or speaker cable? I have three different sets of 10 meter ICs from pre to amp and 1.5 meter speaker cables. Speaker load is highly reactive as compared to the IC's load. So far, no dicernable problems with this arrangement. Especially if you're running balanced (as... | |
| Amplifiers and Horn Loudspeakers I think you will find that most amps with specs like you state for your own will, in most cases, employ undesirably large amounts of negative feedback, a sonic no-no IMHO.When I first got my A/G Duos, all I had in house was my Bryston 4B NRB so th... | |
| Why Palladium in cables, wiring, etc. . .? GCIf your comment regarding the resistivity of titanium had to do with the mention of the Pure Note Titanium cable, note that only the jacket of this cable is titanium (as I understand it). | |
| Why Palladium in cables, wiring, etc. . .? Metallurgically speaking, I can't help you but from a "...how it actually sounds point of view..." my admittedly limited exposure to palladium tells me it's a champ at detail retrieval and refinement without edginess. |
