| What exactly is textural density?? @erik_squires Anything in music that doesn’t sound like an AM radio. And then like anything else there are different degrees. Hope that helps! | |
| Arcam Integrated Amps Arcam makes highly regarded HT receivers and processors. That’s where they excel. | |
| Living in Japan. Any opinions on amplifiers? 2 years old but seems appropriate for this thread. Arigatogozaimashita! P.S. Can anyone name that speaker ?? https://youtu.be/XJJy6VJvSCk | |
| Living in Japan. Any opinions on amplifiers? Isn’t Accuphase really reasonably priced in Japan? Like at least 30 percent cheaper than an US import. | |
| Acoustic treatment question: do you agree with Dennis Foley that $46k to $65k is required? I had a free phone consultation with him a couple months back. He is abrasive to say the least. Turned me off so much I couldn’t wait to get off the phone. | |
| Feedback, thoughts, real experience with the Bergmann Magna turntable? So I’ve had this table and SS cart for 3 weeks now and it’s a sizeable step up in sonics from my previous Rega P10 /Aphelion2 which shared the same room for about a week before I had to say goodbye to the Rega when it sold. I actually can’t get ov... | |
| Ok to adjust balance to achieve center vocal image? What about simply tweaking the toe in of the right speaker so it’s in more, or slightly less toe in on the left speaker? | |
| What is the Silliest Accessory You Have Ever Seen. I fell for the Walker Audio Talisman mainly because I read stellar review from what I thought were reputable sites like 6moons, Positive Feedback, Dagogo, etc At least for me, it does absolutely nothing. It doesn’t even eliminate static. Oh well... | |
| Back to vinyl need phono stage help! I agree with going with a Sutherland. As someone said all he does is phonostages (after founding Martin Logan) and his focus is black backgrounds. Stretch for the 20/20 LPS version- used or demo is not a far stretch and it’s quite remarkable. | |
| Mágico M6 vs Big Wilson speakers Have Jay’s Audiolab (whitecamaross) advise you. He's played around and tested both at the same time although I’m not sure if it was the M6 but it was over $100k. | |
| What did your system look like 30 years ago? Pioneer Elite Receiver. Heavy piece of electronics!Sony ES CD player. 5 CD Carousel Def Tech BP10. Blown away by the bipolar impact on soundstage. Wall of sound. | |
| Substantial Upgrade From experience — in your listening room, do you have wood suspension floors under a concrete foundation like most colonials or high ranches in the US? If so and you choose the Rega, make sure you also buy the shelf for it — footfall is a nasty at... | |
| REVEL performa3 f208 or TEKTON Moab Jay’s Audio Lab on YouTube (whitecamaroos here) is setting up the Tekton Ulfberht with upgraded tweeters ready to challenge his $110k Wilson Alexx. That I’m super interested in, not this silly in-fighting back and forth. | |
| Feedback, thoughts, real experience with the Bergmann Magna turntable? @tablejockey Thanks. Not many reviews or couldn’t find much on all the audio forums. Not sure what that implies if anything. Comes with the sound-smith paua mkII cart which seems like a perfect synergy with my new Andros deluxe II phonostage. | |
| Speaker upgrade @soix Ok you totally missed my point so I’ll try to simplify as best I can. If you haven’t figured it out yet from the countless threads, and by an order of magnitude, even more countless posts, everyone has a flavor of speaker they worship and de... |
