| Oh how I wish Class D amps ... Timtim:"I long for the day I can get rid of my hundred pound Class AB monster amp, for a nice small cool running amp that sounds just as good."Idea: LFD NCSE (not class D but worth a try). Barely a degree of heat even after playing hard all day. L... | |
| Favourite ECM Titles For Charles Lloyd I favor 'Lift every Voice' which is quite cathartic given it's inspirational spiritual response to the 9/11 tumult. For Anouar Brahem recordings, all of them, but 'Le pas du chat noir' & yes agree, 'The Astounding Eyes of Rit... | |
| Mr. Moody Orpheus,If you like classical as well as Jazz and want to hear that train like never before checkout Honneger's Pacific 231. | |
| Can the Harbeth 40.1's boggie ????? NCSE with SHL5's and C7's - wonderful combination. Have heard 40.1's but thought too much cost for perceived improvement over SHL5's. Found SHL5's and C7's to be best buys in Harbeth line-up. The new babies in the line-up are a killer desktop spea... | |
| True Analog LPs versus Digital Recordings I don't know how you'd find that out without contacting the label and inquiring in-depth. Tacet has a few all-analog recordings. I own all of theirs. | |
| Harbeth shl5 upgrade over spendor s8e? My previous post was full of errors in composition, not content (IMO). Sorry for not correcting before posting. Embarrassing. | |
| Harbeth shl5 upgrade over spendor s8e? I've owned C7's and SHL5's. Most post here and elsewhere that SHL5 is better on many levers. My view is depends. My pen pals in Japan prefer C7's 2 to 1. Not only because there listening spaces tend to be smaller either. Alan Shaw has had quite a ... | |
| Grilles or No Grilles Kr4 - If the speaker was designed and voiced with the grille cloth on, then it will only be able to perform as intended with the grille cloth on. Indeed. Example Harbeth - grills on. | |
| Bryston & Harbeths - Good Match? You'll read some sold on the bump-up to bigger watt amps. The rational I frequently hear is Harbeth's OK with lower watts, but big watts give Harbeth's more resolution, detail, and drive at lower levels. I have not heard this in practice myself bu... | |
| Who are these crazy people? Plucking a couple cuts from a LP ala iTunes, etc. is so apropos to the age of short attention spans. If you are around a college lectern long you'll observe many students engaged in multi-tasking during lectures. I just hope in an emergency I don'... | |
| Which Nat King Cole? 'After Midnight' is the one I own because I listen to mostly Jazz-oriented (and classical) music. Sinatra has his 'Jazzier' recordings too and I like them as well. | |
| Who are these crazy people? Many baby boomers struggle with their growing insignificance. Seriously though, it's in-person shared experience where to often shared community is via the virtual world, so kudos to them for the meet-up. Sure beats joining a kooky congregation an... | |
| Can the Harbeth 40.1's boggie ????? My music tastes and system are quite different from what I enjoyed in the 60's & 70's when I had a full head of hair but an empty appreciation of better music. | |
| Keith Jarrett - Koln Concert out on 96/24 I own many recordings where musician(s) emit vocal utterances (Oscar Peterson as example), but Jarrett's grunts and groans irritate me enough that I sold off most of his recordings I owned. I like the simple melodies on the grunt-free studio recor... | |
| Question for Harbeth Owners Ryder's information is spot-on based on my experiences. |
