| In your opinion, what is Hi, Medium and Low end? It's not so much that it take a large investment of money for equipment. Most serious music lovers have more money in software than gear I'd hazard to guess. Take a 1000 lps or cds and compare that to the cost of a system that most members have. I... | |
| Improve your hearing? Actually flushing your sinuses with warm salt water helps keep your eustachian tube clear which can most definitely hinder hearing if it started getting stopped up from allergies ect. Not as likely as ear wax buildup but it does happen. I wouldn't... | |
| What are best hi efficiency speakers under $1000? I love your enthusiasm Happynick. Sounds cool. You could just build nicer looking boxes for the Bozaks too! Ha! | |
| Is this when you have "arrived??" Good one Albert. It's a nice story Gumbydammit! Whatever happened to the other "green man" around this place? | |
| Has the internet been good for audio? The internet has the potential to reach and expose so many people to the audionerd world. So be nice! | |
| Most achingly-beautiful music Noticed the mention of Jeff Buckley on Hallelujah. Anyone heard the Allison Crowe version. Gets my vote. | |
| Using Theremin near tube equipment::any danger? Not a clue but at 0 to 6000 hz it could if you get it too close. If you have shielding around your tubes/gear though you should be safe. Just move it away if there's a problem. I really just wanted to post some songs that supposedly use Therimin o... | |
| Running Speaker Wire through Drywall Ha! Two answers popped up while I typed. And they even added paragraphs! Jea48 gives good advice in these areas. Cheers! | |
| Running Speaker Wire through Drywall Well, no basements where I live but I guess one way would be to find a stud behind the drywall with a studfinder, cut a hole next to the stud (not directly in front of it), insert drill with a right angle attachment and wood bit and drill a hole t... | |
| Give Up? Another reason to have a pair of headphones around. They can be quite handy diagnosing issues downstream. Congrats. | |
| Help w/speaker choice Second the Klipsch but look quickly (cause at 375 the Cornwalls won't last) for some Kornerhorns. Then get a tube amp. That's no room sir, that's a Venue. | |
| I Have 100K for Speakers? Funny thing is most of us would have 6-7k of cd's if we could. Or lp's. That's in the ballpark of 100k. Not to mention past cassette tapes, 8 tracks, reel to reel. Kinda helps justify expensive gear doesn't it. There must be a reasonable ratio of ... | |
| Pros and Cons of built-in amps? While the primary posters know this some readers may believe this debate includes all active or crossover less speakers. This is a specific discussion on speakers with built in amplification. You can run speakers in active mode with any amp or pre... | |
| Whats with the Watts ?? There is another thread on "active speakers" current now and others if you do a search. Since you are a musician you may be already familiar with them. They are at least worth considering and have some strong advocates on the Gon. Sorry if I made ... | |
| Spikes and hardwood floors.....what to do? I have not heard verification of this but common sense tells me that a solid piece of hardwood, combined with the weight of your speakers should couple to the hardwood about as well as the hardwood flooring couples to the subfloor. If true then it... |
