| "a stylish and affordable launch into the world of high-performance audio" If Bob stole money from Joe to pay for a 200K of speakers, then it might be a problem. But if Bob honestly made the money himself, then by all means. In fact, I want as many people to purchase $200K speakers as many as possible. | |
| Thiel Owners Bud, Coors, Heineken, Corona, Draft? It's not the beers that made the man. | |
| Does raising speaker cables off the floor really make a big difference? I experimented with using beer cans as cable risers. I would drink a beer then used the empty can as a riser. And guess what? By the time I finished it worked. Good idea. It works better than cable risers. After my beer post, it actually turned so... | |
| "a stylish and affordable launch into the world of high-performance audio" Maybe we shouldn't be surprise. Think of the speakers in the OP post like a Toyota Camry - perfectly fine at around 30K. Then there are the supercars (or super cars) that are around 300K. I don't think the supercars are 10X better than the Toyo... | |
| Does raising speaker cables off the floor really make a big difference? This thread is better than beers. Better even than self-indulgence. | |
| Does raising speaker cables off the floor really make a big difference? how long is the break-in period? Theoretically, the break-in process is open-ended that is the cables continue to break-in as if "infinitely", that is again theoretically. Practically, though it depends on one's system and one's hearing. | |
| Does raising speaker cables off the floor really make a big difference? Not highly relevant to this thread, perhaps, but still a humbling experience that could be related. As a matter of curiosity, would you be humbling if you didn't see any difference? | |
| Does raising speaker cables off the floor really make a big difference? prof,I guess I was right. You couldn't admit to your self-indulgence. Not that it's a problem :-) | |
| Does raising speaker cables off the floor really make a big difference? I got your point andy. I think you missed the point of my reply. ;-) I supposed you have your point, but I think at least I was right about the self-indulgence part although that's not the only thing. But anyway, you have the right to exercise y... | |
| Does raising speaker cables off the floor really make a big difference? Perfectly put. Cheers. ;-) prof,I think you missed my point. What I was saying is you intentionally trying to be illogical out of being self-indulgence. I think you enjoy doing it lols :-) | |
| "a stylish and affordable launch into the world of high-performance audio" It's interesting how these multi-drivers speakers can be sold for so cheaply. My guess is two things: very inexpensive drivers and the cabinets are probably not up to Thiel or some of the more high-end brands. And of course, made in China helps. | |
| Does raising speaker cables off the floor really make a big difference? Most audiophiles, even reviewers are "beginners". You forgot to mention that the best ones may not be "beginners", but they definitely are liars lols. | |
| Does raising speaker cables off the floor really make a big difference? Bi-wire makes a difference, that is if you system has the resolution for it. Bi-amp will even be better. Although not all "bi" is good. | |
| "a stylish and affordable launch into the world of high-performance audio" On the other hands, I saw a pair of YG Acoustics Hailey 1.2 for 25K. used. That's a lot for two woofers and a tweeter. | |
| How Science Got Sound Wrong Too bad some certain types of memory cannot be erased. Actually I haven't had enough beers to find out. Or maybe some really expensive Hennessy - those of the very smooth operator. |
