| Where are the subs? Are you certain you're not actually hearing the first harmonic of each pedal tone? We don't hear 16Hz, we feel it. | |
| Worth of current system Less than the cost of my music library, about the same as my vintage drum collection. | |
| Preamp for Quicksilver Mid Monos On Audiogon right now are an LS-16 @ $1400, and an LS-17SE @ $1799. | |
| Spiking speakers not designed for spikes? Oh, and all the various Herbie's Audio Lab offerings. That's it, I think ;-) . | |
| What do you Read to learn more about Audio News? PS Audio has a nice little online magazine named Copper, subscription free. Good writing by industry insiders (Roy Hall, Bill Leebens, Ann Johnson, buncha others). | |
| Spiking speakers not designed for spikes? Oops, forgot roller bearings (Symposium Acoustics, Ingress Engineering, DIY). | |
| My speakers are set. Magnepan Tympani IVs @kythyn, if you’re pretty sure you will be sticking with the T-IV’s for the long term (I don't blame you, they're fantastic loudspeakers!), and want to stay within your $2,000 budget, consider getting a good high-power solid state amp that you can... | |
| Spiking speakers not designed for spikes? @halecory, some listeners (Robert Deutsch and Art Dudley in Stereophile, VPI's Harry Weisfeld) have been very impressed with the IsoAcoustic Gaia isolators, many of the UK reviewers are enthusiastic about the Townshend Audio Seismic products, and ... | |

| Your vote: Most Useless Audio Adjective Musical, as that's too subjective. | |
| Squeeky noise on vocals Are you listening to CD's? Some people find them to be bright, to one degree or another. Especially through a tweeter as transparent as the Maggie ribbon. You might be happier with a high-power tube amp, but they're not cheap. | |
| Anyone going to the 2019 "The Show?" Bring your own source material, so you have a "constant reference" in your comparisons. And dress cooly---the rooms get hot. | |
| R.I.P. Roky Erickson. One of the infamous acid casualties of the late 60's, along with Syd Barrett, Skip Spence, and Peter Green. I've known a few myself. Very potentially-dangerous drug. Timothy Leary was a very irresponsible man, imo. | |
| My speakers are set. Magnepan Tympani IVs Hey, that's a great idea. My pair of Eminent Technology LFT-4 have a short (half-height) wing on either side of each panel for that very reason. It partially prevents the front and back wave from meeting on each side and cancelling (the dipole eff... |
