| Spendor S8e, Dynaudio Focus 220, VA Grand Mozart Bartokfan: If you read sallie's comments, she does not place the Spendor as superior to the Tyler. She;'s says ? If push came to shove, my PERSONAL decision is spendor by a WEE TINY MARGIN". Make ot it you will.I finally read the review. What she ... | |
| Tyler Acoustics Linbrook/Super Mini Monitors Tvad: Aktchi, would you say one can assume all loudspeakers made with Brand X drivers will sound the same? I don't believe this is true. Cabinet design and crossover design count for something, too. Sure, they will have a similar flavor. There is ... | |
| Salk Veracity QW v EXT Maxcast: I don't believe Jim is going to produce the EXT. I heard it in Chicago and it didn't compare to the Seas driver models....Jim has just finished two versions of the HT2 a sealed monitor and a ported floorstander.This is getting complicated... | |
| Tyler Acoustics Linbrook/Super Mini Monitors Bartokfan: She mentions the Spendor "S8e" whatever those #'s letters are suppose to mean is anyones guess.Spendor has a "classic" line and a newer one; I think this is their #2 model in the new line.Tvad: Bartokfan, I will look forward to your com... | |
| spendor 3/5 vs era vs avi vs vienna acoustics hayd 213cobra: I've owned in the past S3/5, Haydn and Silverline SR16. If the poster has the space, Tones or Druids from Zu are better still.I thought you might feel this way and it'd be good to let the OP know. Then it is up to him. (He has since then... | |
| Tyler Acoustics Linbrook/Super Mini Monitors Bartokfan: I haven't gotten to Absolute Sound yet. I guess that review is not available online (usually you get that sort of stuff at manufacturer's website). Anyway, which Spendor model does Sally prefer to Tyler Linbrook System 2? | |
| Tyler Acoustics Linbrook/Super Mini Monitors Bartokfan: Just to illustrate the confusion Ty's speaker nomenclature causes, here are a few exerpts from another A'gon thread:"If you are referring to the Linbrook floorstanders that have the one mid/bass driver and a tweeter in each enclosure (i... | |
| Tyler Acoustics Linbrook/Super Mini Monitors Bartokman: I appreciate your sentiments. Hope you get a chance to compare Tylers with your Thors side by side some day. I know you'd enjoy that greatly. Have you---or anybody else here---had a chance to investigate Salks and Silverlines in compari... | |
| spendor 3/5 vs era vs avi vs vienna acoustics hayd I am surprised you didn't mention Zu Druids and Tones as options. A pair of Druids is listed as "2100 OBO", so could be only a very small stretch from his budget. A pair of Tones just sold for 1150. | |
| Dali, Amphion, Zu Rblnr: Can't you leave them playing all the time, specially when you are away? You don't have to be present listening to a driver being broken in. With 10 hours/day, it should take 10-15 days at most. | |
| Tyler Acoustics Linbrook/Super Mini Monitors Bartokfan: Yes it is confusing. Creative individuals, enterpreneurs etc are often their own worst enemies. I think it is good that one should not feel bound by others' viewpoint, but it is not good if one can't or doesn't even take it into conside... | |
| Pick your poison...2-channel or multi? I also dabbled in "quadraphonic" systems for a while. I came to feel that as a concept and potential, MC should be better if money was no object anywhere in the chain: sound recording, equipment design and manufacture, my own budget. With realisti... | |
| any new Quad 11/12L owners? Rapogee: And do listen to Phasecorrect! He is correct, do not under estimate the price tags for the Quad L series, it will compete with some of the very best book shelfs out there and 5 X its cost.Since there are always some mediocre speakers with... | |
| What are the specs of a full range speaker? "Full range" gets abused because it sounds nice but here is a reasonable practical check: Whenever a company feels the need to employ two or more driver to reproduce music, then none of them was not full range. | |
| Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They? Aggielaw: I forgot in my prev post, seehttp://www.daedalusaudio.com/design%20notes1.htmlfor info on Daedalus speakers. |
