| Looking for more detail in a speaker Thanks @nordicnorm! One of the legacy dealers of audiophile equipment in San Antonio came by earlier to try and set up my Well Tempered Classic ( this is a project and another interesting journey). After determining he needed more research to set ... | |
| Looking for more detail in a speaker @geof3 Yeah, I was surprised when I put a measuring tape to it. I’ve got furniture I the way that puts my listening chair at that distance. My sons used to use this room a lot but don’t any more so time to maybe get rid of some furniture and rearr... | |
| Looking for more detail in a speaker Breaking news. The owner of the 805’s I listened to is going to let me demo them at my house for a few days. Can’t get them till Sunday. That will answer a lot of questions about whether it’s my room, the speakers or maybe both. @chorus I hear wha... | |
| Looking for more detail in a speaker @fatdaddy The 3.5’ wall angles up to 9’ and the tapers down to 8’ on the opposite wall. Th room is 13.5 wide and 26’ long. My listening position is about 20’ from the speakers. So, it’s not a traditional listen set up but what I have to work with ... | |
| Looking for more detail in a speaker @redwoodaudio I have done some of that. I have an AQ Niagara 1200 along with a NRGZ cord from the outlet to the Niagara and an NRGZ from the Niagara to my amp. I also replace all applicable wall outlets with Pangea Audio Premier outlets. So, I hav... | |
| Looking for more detail in a speaker @bobinwi I’ll get some solid advice on room acoustics when my friend comes over to set up my TT. I was at Best Buy Magnolia recently and the rep said they offer a no cost estimate on room treatment service. They need to come to the house and do an... | |
| Looking for more detail in a speaker @mijostyn, Others have suggested Maggie’s as something I might like. They pop up for sale fairly often in San Antonio and Austin. Available now is a pair of Martin Logan Vantage. How close would those get to the 3.7i’s in detail or resolution? The... | |
| Looking for more detail in a speaker @b_limo thanks for the speaker recommendations. Would prefer to hear in person before buying but I’ll do some research determine if any of those are worthy of taking a chance. Your word ‘refinement’ nails what I’m looking for in my GE’s by making ... | |
| Looking for more detail in a speaker I have what I’ll call a legacy audio dealer/audiophile coming by my house tomorrow to do me a favor and set up a Well Tempered Classic table for me. I told him about my speaker situation and room dynamics. He thinks the odd room layout may actuall... | |
| Looking for more detail in a speaker Thanks for all the feedback. Seems there’s a lot of emphasis on speaker placement and listening position. I would have to really think outside the box to change things in my listening room make some of the suggestions happen. I did tweak speaker p... | |
| Looking for more detail in a speaker As they say, “it’s complicated.” The owner was using a Gryphon Diablo 300 amp, along with some high end speaker wires about 8ft run each. We were about 7-8’ feet from the 805’s. He was streaming through his Apple computer. Don’t know his preamp. I... | |
| Need recommendation for a CD player Just picked up a Rotel RCD 1570 because I thought it sounded more pleasing than a Oppo 105D, which I was considering more for audio playback than anything else. All the features the Oppo has are nice but the Rotel, with the Wolfson DAC processors,... | |
| Need recommendation for a CD player What about any of the CD players with the VEIS level mods? Any feedback on that versus the Modwright upgrade? |
