Good Used Speakers ($8K-10K) For A Little Listening Room Have to agree with Geof. We are not saying not to use acoustical passive tuning 3 out of our 4 soundrooms do use some kinds of treatment however, our last 2 rooms at the New York audio show sounded fantastic and used 0 bass traps.The active room c... | |
Naim and Elac Adante, Wow Arafiq hardly surprsing. We are a Parasound dealer, and although they make a good amp for the moneyParasounds products generally sound warm and a bit closed in.The LS 50w would sound cleaner and more open due to active crossover, 0 cabling, and ... | |
Good Used Speakers ($8K-10K) For A Little Listening Room Tomcarr, by the time you are finished with room treatment and bass traps you are going to blow a lot of funds.The biggest issue with a small room is not first order reflections but bass boom. as the room being a perfect square will cause serious l... | |
Naim and Elac Adante, Wow Mapman and Cn, yes the moderators do need to step in.A post whether you like the poster, or not, or agree or disagree with the points being made does not mean that people should be stepping off target and making some of these ridiculous assertions... | |
Good Used Speakers ($8K-10K) For A Little Listening Room Moto man, I was giving this some thouught. You have a difficult situation.Too much bass and you get boom, not enough and the sound is thin.You have an excellent amp, so how about this idea:A set of Legacy Audio Calibres with active bass and a Wav... | |
A HiFi newbs Elac Adante review Cotuzzi, the design is called a band pass and Kef did it many years ago. Andrew Jones worked for Kef so so that is no surprise. The idea of the bandpass or quasi band bass it to simply the crossover by allowing a more natural progression acoustica... | |
Naim and Elac Adante, Wow I guess we will agree to disagree.I wonder if your posts have assisted anyone?We can name at least 6 people who followed our advice however i see you just cant even stay on the topic which I recall is Elac.Asked you what these people are using wit... | |
Naim and Elac Adante, Wow Long Rants Ct really look at yours?Staying on topic really?Please list all the dealers you heard Elac-Adantes and what they were using?That is staying on topic which i see you cant as per having the last word laid everything out in the last post y... | |
Can anyone who has heard Raidho X-1s and Harbeth M30.1s discuss the sound? This is a bizzare selection of two totally different sounding loudspeakers with completely differnet personalities.Harbeths are known for a rich midrange, a polite treble decent imaging and are respected for being musical and natural sounding loud... | |
A HiFi newbs Elac Adante review Congrats Chris,You will be in for a treat. Give the Adantes plenty of break in time. You will be rewarded with even better sound if you do a couple of things.1: A set of Isoacoustics Ghia 3 feet will improve the bass deifination and improve the so... | |
Naim and Elac Adante, Wow Ctstooner, really rather amusing.If we were to check your 1,700 or so posts how many other loudspeakers have you ever endorsed or even mentioned vs one partiuclar brand?If you like so many different loudspeakers how come you never seem to discuss... | |
Naim and Elac Adante, Wow Gerdessc,Never have we browbeaten anyone, nor do we diminish anyone's preferences. We like and respect many brands that we don't sell, but unlike some of the other posters, we do not subscribe to the only one brand is better philosophy. We believ... | |
Naim and Elac Adante, Wow GerdesscYou are correct it should be fun and people should be able to express ideas and points without people blowing their tops.You got guys saying they would never come into our shop, based on what they read, here, come on, if you think the expe... | |
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Also totally agree with you on the Isoacoutics stuff, just amazing for the money. Did an initial test of three pucks at $60 for the entire set vs a set of the older Stillpoints which were over $300 and we thought the Isoacoustics were just as good... | |
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Hello Matt,I have to say I am not surprised by the HRS vs the Symposisum.We did a shoot out of the HRS Damping plate $1,800.00 which is the actual shelf of the HRS stands vs a Stillpoints spider platfom which cost $800 and we had the exact same ex... |
