| Recommendations for speakers in a much smaller listening room. I've found most speakers can work very well as long as the listening seat is flexible. You have to be open to moving everything around and see what sounds best. A pair of Verity Parsifal monitors would be really nice and are sometimes found with... | |
| Fyne Audio Vintage Classic Gold SP….beat dealer? I bought my 501SP's used for $3400, which I thought at the time was a good value. O sold them for $2200 with barely any interest. I'd agree that they don't hold value. | |
| Fyne Audio Vintage Classic Gold SP….beat dealer? Take a look at the Devore o/96 too. The Fyne’s do look really nice. Never heard them but I did own the 501SP and found them a little laid back for my preferences, but very different speaker. | |
| Local pickup for speakers - should I let the buyer in the house or use the the garage? If anything he will be slightly geeky, will talk to much and if you start talking a tweaks you will never get rid of him. I've never had a worrisome experience. Lengthy yes, and I agree with the above, he might decide not to buy if you hook them... | |
| Old SS amps Years ago my dad gave me his MC2125 and C28. I had them serviced and find them fun to listen to but lack the clarity of more modern amps. That said I’d rather listen to this pair over many sub $2500(I think equal value after you pull out the nosta... | |
| How competitive are you with your system? It’s hard to tell when recorded through an Iphone 4. But beautiful, you've all done well for yourselves! I had to call the police on the last guy that listened to my system. He just couldn’t leave. | |
| How competitive are you with your system? @mwinkc I only know people with the best ears. They come listen and they won't leave. I can't get them out. They will tell you. :) | |
| How competitive are you with your system? My system is the best system ever. We’re talking tone like you wouldn’t believe. Texture is off the charts. Soundstage? So wide it makes your living room feel like Madison Square Garden. I’ve had audiophiles — big-time people, very serious ears —... | |
| What's going on with the audio market? Got the paddles out for this thread. I was going to chime in on the tariff thread, but it got a bit heated and was shut down. I’ve been buying and selling gear for nearly 30 years—more than most, but probably modest compared to some here. Early o... | |
| White cabinet popularity? I had a pair of Verity Leonore in White and they were beautiful. Paired with my Leben cs600x they played with style. The words nimble, rich, detailed come to mind. I soon went after the newer Otello. These had a better foundation and I found ... | |
| Speakers for 2nd System! This is a great project. Look at the Devore oBaby, above Audio Note, you can chase those way over budget if you want, Fyne makes a small speaker but not sure of the power needed. Good luck and please keep us in the loop as you put this together. | |
| Is there a ROON sound? @ghasley lol hope all is well out there! | |
| What is your scariest moment in High End audio? When she reached her hand down my front pocket and the receipt was in there. | |
| Ears hurt when listening after changing speakers I owned one pair of speakers that made my ears ring and physically hurt. Too bad because I really did enjoy the sound. Not sure what was up with them, I moved on. | |
| Informed/Insightful information requested on Tannoy GRF loudspeakers I owned the Fyne 501SP and found them to be a little dull. I powered them with four amp over time (I like amps) amps- Leben 600, Luxman 550AII and Audionote Cobra and a Coda CSIB. There was something I just couldn't get into with the mids. They ju... |
