| Totem Rainmaker distortion?? I had a similar issue with a pair of Arros and it turned out to be the woofer enclosure overlapping with the tweeter enclosure and creating a vibration around 500 Hz. I brought them to Totem (I am in Montreal) and they inserted an ultra thin gaske... | |
| How to remove B&W 800 N midrange?? Bigjoe, it is a B&W screwdriver. Worth every penny. | |
| Contribute to best speaker count. No B&Ws? you are going to get in trouble... | |
| Which is Best loudspeaker in the $1000-1200 range? James, another pissed off BMW owner who does not tolerate criticism? Proving my point a bit more that it is a religion more than a mass audio brand? as far as my knowledge of audio gear pricing and markups, PM me for a free tutorial, this could sa... | |
| Which is Best loudspeaker in the $1000-1200 range? Brian: you are right, these were estimates only, I may be underestimating the figure by another 10% or so as I have bought three European speaker sets at 40% discounts directly from their NorAm distributors (not end of the line). I guess they cove... | |
| Which is Best loudspeaker in the $1000-1200 range? "Maybe that's why the cost of a pair of B&W's in the US is the same as the cost in the UK!"Agree but price differential may also come from market-specific pricing to remain competitive and adjust to the strength/weakness of their currency. In ... | |
| Which is Best loudspeaker in the $1000-1200 range? I disagree: the OP learnt among other things that B&W's (and many others) pricing is made of a minimum of 40% marketing costs (distri channel + advertising). Or, how to get a $1,000 pair of speakers that sounds like a $2,500 one: stay away fro... | |
| Which is Best loudspeaker in the $1000-1200 range? Ok, enough fun, you like - sorry Love- B&W, I don't, why is it so hard for you to tolerate a different opinion? would you burn a flag for a cartoon of a B&W logo? Comments like "no one can touch their R&D" are embarrassing for you and ... | |
| Used speakers $7,000-$10,000 Kurt tank, I do not disagree that if you can fit the Eidolons in that price range, then I would go for them too! | |
| Which is Best loudspeaker in the $1000-1200 range? I would have used them as reference if they had not been the OP's current speaker brand. In that case, i used them in the OP's context of an upgrade. Grade 5 logic, come again.Now, I saw your system and realized that you are still mourning the for... | |
| Which is Best loudspeaker in the $1000-1200 range? S7horton: I apologize if I offended you, any B&W owners, their family and affiliates. Over the years, I have noticed that B&W is one brand that must not be criticised. I still do not know why but I guess it has to do with the BMW thing. As... | |
| Used speakers $7,000-$10,000 Gregadd: Aerial 20t seem to be a forgotten gem as not so many ever discuss it but those who do are really in love with it. How do they sound (or comparable to)? this is one brand I never auditioned and never saw on display/tradeshows here in Montr... | |
| Which is Best loudspeaker in the $1000-1200 range? "I mean, those loudspeakers that cost a $1000 but sound like they cost $2500"I know plenty of $1000 speakers that sound better than B&Ws that cost $2500. Is this what you are looking for? :):) | |
| Diagonal room Setup.... Nsgarch, I respectfully disagree with your statement. Based on extensive diagonal set-up experience vs traditional in a 11*13 room with 3 different monitors and 2 slim floorstanders, I was able to achieve tighter bass, cleaner midrange, fewer 100-... | |
| Verity Audio "Sophia just suited me better"Happy you found what you wanted and remember that what other people think is somehow irrelevant in audio, especially Audiogoners...! |
