The Ascend Acoustics CBM-170 SE.Click on The Sound Apprentice link. On the home page to the right, there is a list of "topics and brands" in i... | |
Why do many discussions about sonic performance disintegrate into technical discusions? Zzzzzzzzzzz.......... | |
Belles Greatest Integrated ever! The Virtuoso 2chfreak..The one thing I like about the Sierra Towers is that they weigh only 44 pounds! The lightness of bamboo. Since bamboo is 500% stronger than MDF, it can take on much higher levels of distortion, resonance, and internal turbulence from low... | |
Belles Greatest Integrated ever! The Virtuoso Better than anyone else? Nope. Just that Belles sounds better. Truth can be painful. No, Belles won't have the high profit margins as the big mega buck amps costing $20K to $50K. The core reason why many high end retailers don't carry the Belles l... | |
Greatest Rock Drummers I have to share this..I happened to see Led Zeppelin on their first U.S. tour. I saw them at the Seattle Center Ice Arena and had no clue who they were. They opened for Vanilla Fudge. The concert was on December 27th, 1969, just weeks before their... | |
Belles Greatest Integrated ever! The Virtuoso audiotroy..Boy, you have missed the boat. You need to eat some brain food. " If Belles products were so remarkable why are there next to no dealers?" WHAT A LOAD OF HOOEY!!!More than any other company, Belles has alway been the biggest threat to ... | |
Belles Greatest Integrated ever! The Virtuoso Important point..there are just over 4000 speaker companies' worldwide. Only 20% of those companies' manufacture their speaker's in house. Out of those 20 percent there is a small percentage of those that don't just manufacture loudspeaker's, they... | |
Greatest Rock Drummers Thanks bdp24 for that correction. I was not aware of Claptons' involvement on the White Album until the early 80's when I read a brief bio on Clapton in a music magazine stating that Clapton played two tracks on the White Album. Apparently the art... | |
Belles Greatest Integrated ever! The Virtuoso oem-wheels..Hard to say. Shoot Dave an email. He responds quickly.Hes full of surprises. But I would doubt it. My seasoned instincts tell me that the Virtuoso will be so spectacular musically, that separates will be the last thing on your mind. Do... | |

Belles Greatest Integrated ever! The Virtuoso 2chreak..The current Vandy's look really good. Better crossover boards and better drivers. The speaker I'm referring to that I'm purchasing when the Virtuoso is released is designed by former top speaker engineer at Miller & Kreisel. Their pro... | |
Belles Greatest Integrated ever! The Virtuoso The problem was the 2CE speaker. Not the amp and preamp. Several times during the listening session we switched back and forth with a Genesis floor stander. The sound from the same gear coming through the Genesis was spectacular. Aaron Nevilles' v... | |
Belles Greatest Integrated ever! The Virtuoso 2chfreak..Haven't heard any of the current Vandersteen models, and it appears he has taken on engineers that has improved his designs in recent years but that was not the case back in the 90's when all his model's were the open frame design with t... | |
Belles Greatest Integrated ever! The Virtuoso 2chfreak..I second carmenc's opinion that your post is great. You nailed it in spades. And your absolutely correct that millions don't care about music anymore. There are many audiophiles that buy high end gear just for show, on a endless carousel... | |
Greatest Rock Drummers shadorne..I watched that doc on Ginger a couple of years ago..Baker was a ruthless competitor. When I saw him in 1974 at the Paramount in Seattle, Buddy Miles opened the show. When Ginger ended his drum solo at the end of his show, he yells in the... |
