Speakers on front page of Audiogon site I believe those are Wilson Duettes | |
Speaker earthquake protection and isolation Hey kevine, I have a thought that may be helpful...When we fostered a new kitten last year, I was concerned about both potty accidents affecting my speakers, and the possibility of the cat doing scratching and clawing at the base of the speakers. ... | |
Can a apple airport express be part of a audiophile system? Of course it can...give me an Apple Express connected to a great pair of speakers in a well-treated room over a $5000 DAC connected to a mediocre set of speakers in a carelessly set up room everyday and 23 times on Sunday. | |
Any suggestion on DAC below $1,500 I'll take the other side of this coin. Eddy, I would tell you that the idea that you will hear a "big" difference between these dacs, even from $500 to $1500, is highly debatable. You are welcome to go with what everyone is saying, but you shou... | |
What's up with the ridiculous offers?!? Va6007, the reason that I think Mapman suggests to ignore it is because it isn’t necessarily a reflection on the industry, or the value of your gear, or the state of audio sales or audio secondary market values. Offers like that are often a reflec... | |
Speakers that are very accurate sounding but don't produce an emotional connection. Rather than thinking in terms of accuracy, I prefer to simply think in terms of sound signature. Because every speaker, no matter how transparent it was designed to be, is just giving you an impression of the music. And that impression either appe... | |
New floor stand speakers I hope the OP makes his choice based on what he hears with his own ears and, if possible, that he gets to try his speaker choices in his own environment. Lots of good suggestions in this thread, but also lots of people disliking lots of speakers ... | |
Audioengine B1 Bluetooth - Really Surprised Thanks for posting fishboat, glad to hear the B1 worked out for you and that my original post was helpful. Sounds like you're enjoying the same thing I am - it is so cool being able to instantly queue up millions of songs, right from the smartph... | |
Who tried Class D only to return to S/S or Tube Lasagna will never have the flavor, excitement, or mouth-watering succulent texture of baked rigatoni. I understand this is my opinion, however, it's also based on experience as well, I've been eating Italian food for 48 years.BTW - Kuribo is now... | |
B&W 'New' 800 Series CT, the room in the photo at that link looks bigger than the room we were in, from the clearance on the sides, but hard to tell. It was a nice-sized room, about as wide as my living room, but longer. It's a rectangular shaped, long room with th... | |
B&W 'New' 800 Series CT, I wrote a little about this in another thread where I reported on my own listening test with the 802D3. It was at my local Magnolia in Scottsdale, in a beautiful listening room with wall treatments (but no bass traps if memory serves), not c... | |
Your "eureka" digital moment I think my eureka moment came when I discovered Spotify. I already had a system I loved the sound of, which couldn't have been simpler - computer connected to integrated with built in dac running to speakers. So only 3 components including the co... | |
B&W 'New' 800 Series And for calling out the shameful behavior, my post was removed by the moderator. Since there are clearly moderators viewing this thread, I'll ask them directly - how is it that you are allowing members to blatantly sell competing products in som... | |
Understanding low-frequency reproduction....room or speaker So far I've been lucky with placement...I've had fun playing with the bipolar configuration of the speakers and trying zero toe-in, extreme toe-in, even toeing them outward and pointing the rear-firing drivers upwards towards each other which crea... | |
Understanding low-frequency reproduction....room or speaker davehrab, I want to clarify something - and I think George had the same idea - the bass response I'm getting, and the resonance, is absolutely not a problem. It's not something I'm trying to cure, or eliminate. The purpose of my question wasn't... |
