| I hate stereo stores But found the next best thing Hey Brian, you seem like a suburban kind guy, don't bad-mouth our city. :-) What speakers do you sell/recommend? | |
| Rogers LS35A - Stradivarius? Or Sentimental Hype? Cwlondon: It is both.:) Great speaker but current prices include the hype factor. As others have said, Spendor S3/5 or an offering from Harbeth would be just as good but fairly priced. I listened to LS3/5a many years ago and chose Spendor BC-1 ins... | |
| Request to hear Zu speakers Hey, me too! (Chicago)Maybe we need a Zu party in each town. Hosts provide Zu's, guests food and drinks. | |
| Mini Monitors - Dynaudio and JM Labs Goatwuss: The phenomenon is called "superposition of waves" and is basic to all physics. Any college level text should have it. | |
| Mini Monitors - Dynaudio and JM Labs Goatwuss: I missed your post in which you wrote: "Aktchi - We are not talking about low frequencies, we are talking about high frequencies above 25khz. I certainly agree with you about the low frequency point..."Clearly, you missed the whole point... | |
| Totem Forest vs Proac Response D15 vs Spendor s8e Calgarian5355, congratulations and we can wish you many years of enjoyment. If you get a chance I would be curious to read how your comparison, review, and selection process went. | |
| Mini Monitors - Dynaudio and JM Labs Everybody: This question of whether or not we can hear very low frequencies (say 15 Hz) keeps confusing many people.I hope I am giving away no secrets when I reveal that music is a complex superposition of many frequencies. :) To understand the ba... | |
| Harbeth C7 vs Proac D25 Review As a Spendor BC1 owner who is occasionally brooding about possible upgrades, I found your review very interesting.( I must say I too agree about wanting my speakers to be inherently "musical" and not overly sensitive to amp, wall etc.) Your taste ... | |
| Tyler Accoustics....a true pleasure to deal with.. Gtan: Even with expanding family one got to have music. Remember Mozart is good for babies! Surely, you can find a some corner for skeakers. | |
| The very best new/used under $3k for classical? For different reasons both my wife and I like a floorstander, so I'd look into Verity for sure. The following is in the spirit of general discussion if people want to pick up the thread: Other than having adequate WAF, I'd like most of my $'s goin... | |
| The Best DIY Clones? Just wanted to add that the following looks very interesting as well:http://home1.stofanet.dk/troels.gravesenHis own favorite amon his designs appears to be "TJL":http://home1.stofanet.dk/troels.gravesen/index_b/My_Floorstanders.htm | |
| The Best DIY Clones? Hifidreams: Thanks. The price is certainly right. I wonder if anyone here has compared their proac clones to proacs? In my original message I wrote "DIY Clones" when I really meant DIY *OR* Clone speakers, the common ground being the hope of getti... | |
| The very best new/used under $3k for classical? Thanks fo all the replies so far. Many of these names are familiar to me, but Castle and Verity were not on my radar screen. I am surprised nobody has nominated Silverline, Tyler, GMA, Zu, etc., the names that get enthusastic support in this forum... | |
| Wife Acceptance Factor WAF comes into play in two ways: how much money can be spent, and also how acceptable your purchases are as decor. Naturally, unless you have so much money and so much room that you can carve out a niche that doesn't affect her at all, you would b... | |
| newbie needs to know what next... I agree with the advice to slow down. First of all, you have to decide if you want the same system to do music and movies. If you have the room it may make sense to separate them. After weighing our own priorities we ended up choosing a high quali... |
