| Montreal Audio Show - anyone hear the FR30’s? @kren0006 Your Wilson comment is correct; however they absolutely do unbox the speakers in the room where the speakers are to be located. | |
| Montreal Audio Show - anyone hear the FR30’s? @jjss49 Includes delivery and white glove initial set up. 230lbs each speaker. And a 30 day in home trial money back guarantee. All that adds to the cost not to mention inflation in general. So for $27,500 it could be a winner. | |
| Montreal Audio Show - anyone hear the FR30’s? Oh sorry. That’s PS Audio’s new speaker. | |
| Power Cable Break In - Such a Change! @chayro I think these just sold unfortunately but 60 percent off. However register at both hifi shark and Usam and save your search term and you’ll get them soon enough. https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649831799-audience-au24sx-1m-rca-... | |
| Power Cable Break In - Such a Change! Whether break-in is real or in the brain, it’s crazy to buy high end power cords new at retail or even 20 percent off (and have them sound bad for 150 hours) when they go for 50-60 percent off used and nicely broken in. I bought the AQ Hurricane f... | |
| GIK alternatives I recently complained and asked for a 10 percent discount and got it. | |

| Your single most significant purchase mistake? My biggest mistake was not anticipating how much fun this hobby would be and so started out not spending what I could have and therefore continually upgrading. For example, I went from a Rega P6, then an 8, then a 10, and then scrapping the brand ... | |
| Best Bang for the Buck Upgrade My advice is a little different cause it seems like you’re chasing the sound by upgrading here or there. What could you get if you sold everything and started over with the proceeds from the sale and that bonus money? Come up with an estimated nu... | |
| What's with website? @liamowen hahahaha I actually visited their place a couple of years ago. Impressive for sure in a museum type of way. | |
| Linear Power Supply? Linear Tube Audio sells a separate LPS for around $600 to replace wall warts in electronics so I bought one for my turntable. I think it improved the sound a lot but not entirely sure as these things go…but I like the tweak and it makes me feel go... | |
| Systems over $100k Is that defined by retail pricing or what we actually spent ? | |
| your first system- 1990 the year I graduated college. A pair of Def Tech BP10’s, a gorgeous built like a tank Pioneer Elite receiver and a Sony ES 5 CD carousel. Purchased from my first experience with a high end retailer called The Listening Room in Scarsdale, NY. ... | |
| What Would Be the Reasoning Behind Leaving Class D Amps On? I have two large wyred4sound class D amps powering my home theater - 3x400 for the fronts and 5x250 for the surrounds. I hooked them up and turned them on in Feb 2012 and they haven’t been turned off since so that’s almost 10 years continually on. | |
| I am enjoying my analog system, but what can I do to improve? Get the Allnic matching phonostage. I did my own shootout on phonostages and their impact on the music was undeniable. |
