| Not wasting my time on new Digital There are many things overpriced in audio. You guys with mega bucks can afford to play. Us with limited budgets have to make things work first time around. My $1000 cdp offers everything I was looking for, and have zero plans to upgrade. I mean I ... | |
| Tyler Acoustics Linbrook/Super Mini Monitors Sally doesn't say outright she prefers the spendor, says "what then keeps this 43600 speaker from quite the overall level of performance the spendor S8 achieves? The answer lies in the slightly compromised lower middlerange and midbass. these to m... | |
| Tyler Acoustics Linbrook/Super Mini Monitors She mentions the Spendor "S8e" whatever those #'s letters are suppose to mean is anyones guess. I looked at a photo of that speaker, not at all impressed. I've heard "that" speaker before somewhere in my 30 yrs of past critquing speakers. seems AS... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? This speaker topic looks like which car do you like. Everyone here drives a different car. everyne on my block has a different model car. | |
| Tyler Acoustics Linbrook/Super Mini Monitors GO FIGURE Zero Tyler's on the used market. All buyers keep their speakers. . I guess no one is figuring that out. IOW the # of used speakers on the used market let you know how well to how c**py they are. Tyler is the only lab with zero, which tel... | |
| New Tubes- Need Burn-In? I bought a quad of EH 88's for JOR the other day. What an absolute waste of money, thank god the seller refunded almost all my $100. Not even close to the stock KT90's. The Jadis guy said it would cost me like $800 to get a quad of Jadis 88's. btw... | |
| Cayin A 88-T integrated:The new King of the Hill? Rowland is ss and seems rather expensive. Can you provide a price of this Rowland pre you are using....this I giootta hear....I ain't interested in nothing ss, thank you. When I see photos of the guts on any ss equip I want to throw up, ugly and d... | |
| Cayin A 88-T integrated:The new King of the Hill? "clearly shows the limitations of Cayin's preamp section". Ahhh let me ask you, how much does one pay new/used for a Rowland? Is this a tube pre?Lets get to the bottom of the story. I've never heard of either a APL , faintly a Harbeth. But thats b... | |
| Tyler Acoustics Linbrook/Super Mini Monitors Make it a point to stop off and pick up a copy of Absolute Sound, go ahead its only $8, so we are all on the same page. That review should put to rest any objections that the Tyler/Seas is something to be heard. | |
| Cayin A 88-T integrated:The new King of the Hill? You could try Cayin's TRI 88 the big brother to the A**. I think price is another 1K, but not avaliable in the US, like most of Cayin's products are not. Thats yrs down the road. btw I could complain about the Jadis pre section, its not the best, ... | |
| Vandersteen Quattro review in Stereophile "one of , if not the best deals in audio speakers...." | |
| Cayin A 88-T integrated:The new King of the Hill? Oh I'll be honest. It'll be the Jadis vs Cayin. And i won't fudge for either. It'll be straight up talk. As you know from all my posts, I don't hold back notin'. :-) | |
| Tyler Acoustics Linbrook/Super Mini Monitors Aktchi "maddening" hehe...yes it has been difficult for this 50 yr old brain to keep all the Sigs, Systems, ONE, TWO's all in proper order, and making sure everyone is on the same apge. But as you point out there is no lab that offers the extent o... | |
| Cayin A 88-T integrated:The new King of the Hill? Tvad, when i get the A88 I'm gonna talk my head off about it. | |
| Cayin A 88-T integrated:The new King of the Hill? Strange the title of the thrad is the A88 yet every amp is being talked about, except the A88. .Odd. |
