| Speakers The single most critical component I agree to a large degree with the comments about the room. In my experience I had a $20,000 speaker in a properly sized well treater room I moved the system to another location in the same space but lost the point of boundary reinforcement for th... | |
| Japanese Audio @ghasley Yes, very well, thanks for asking. I've enjoyed your pursuits and sharing of valuable information regarding some of the above mentioned brands over the years.Lots of great information written here and things to consider. I know several gu... | |
| Japanese Audio The thread is about to get hit with the ugly stick. I appreciate the comments about culture and meditation SET and how room size and wall thickness influence listening level. I just still find it puzzling that most of us can easily rattle off a do... | |
| Japanese Audio The low listening level comment is great. I hadn't thought about the need for larger speakers for lower listening levels. I'm curious if there are local companies that make high efficiency smaller speakers that would be competitive with Cube or D... | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV I’ve never understood why people that love a product get accosted. I do understand that some may be influenced by another’s love of a component. Maybe they buy it based on someone’s reaction and not like it, but that’s a risk audiophiles sometimes... | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV Pair of CW4 for sale on vintage McIntosh Facebook page. No price listed. | |
| Can anyone tell me about VERITY AUDIO PARSIFAL The tuxedo comment is more that they are precise and do imaging and coherency in a very complete and refined way. They are dynamic especially if you have some power behind them, as you do. The guys at Verity should get back with the exact spec of ... | |
| The two most common mistakes are bass and treble That's also part of my point Erik. Savvy steering can cost non savvy audiophiles money. It all comes down to getting out and listening, or like me, setting an experimentation budget of $X per year as part of the excitement and enjoyment in audio. | |
| The two most common mistakes are bass and treble I apologize if I sound like this- I'm coming from the perspective of engineering and as an amplifier manufacturer of the last 45 years. I've always respected your posts on these forums and have learned a thing or two along the way. You contribu... | |
| Can you get proper imaging if speakers are not the same distance from center? It can be pretty good but don't go spending thousands on cables looking to make it better. Setup is 70% the rest is the fancy stuff. | |
| The two most common mistakes are bass and treble P05129 that’s what I mean- so many people try to speak with authority and absolutes but they don’t know jack other than what they know and like. Another common one is when you own the same component as the “know it all” and don’t like it. “Must be... | |
| The two most common mistakes are bass and treble For many years I chased resolution and got the ear drill after long term listening I’ve learned to listen to speakers for what they are and just enjoy the music. A friend in high end once told me that what I want might not exist. I was able to rel... | |
| Can anyone tell me about VERITY AUDIO PARSIFAL I've owned the Parsifal Encore (latest version) prior to the Ovation. You can look at them as mini monitors with dual subs if you wish. High quality very refined sound (to refined for some). It's been years but if you PM me I'd be happy to chat ab... | |
| Do Nordost QX4 purifiers worK? Upscale Audio is $1.649 vs. $2,700 so looks like a good buy Blind tested with my family for years and it works. Gives strings voices percussion that last 5 % realness factor. increased resolution without fatigue. If the recording is great it will make it better, if it’s not good it will still be bad.I down... | |
| Speaker cable recommendations for DeVORE FIDELITY The A23’s look like something your grandmother would knit but they’re really good with the Devore speakers. I’ve also used a full Frey 2 set and they were magical but that’s $10k compared to 900 and different more than better. |
