| 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. | |
| Bookshelf speakers that project voices well Not bookshelves but the Devore O/93 with Leben is an amazing movie combination. Great with dialogue. | |
| Zu Soul Supreme with Leben CS300xs (or Harbeth XX.X?) avgonzalez that's a wise statement. A friend told me once that what I'm looking for in a system might not exist- there are always tradeoffs. The 600 has more power but if you don't need the power, I actually prefer the tighter, faster sound of th... | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV Saburo that's a great few lines that you wrote there. I'm sure people can argue the finer points of your observation but nicely done. 39 posts and we get more value in what you write than some who post 20,000 completely idiotic pointless statement... | |
| Is it just me? Stereo5 shoot me a message if you ever want to sell that MA. I'll say nice things to make up for these inconsiderate bastards. | |
| Leben CS600 or Atmasphere or ARC I've owned the Leben and the A318B. Very different amps. The Leben is much more illuminated in the mids and highs. Can be bright with the wrong speakers- to me, but most likely not to others. Also the Nines for me did best more power from the Lebe... | |
| Why would anyone want class AB amp when class A always sounds better ? The only thing that matters to me is the interaction with the speaker I'm connecting it to. Over the years I always seem to gravitate back to class A. It's a finer more complete presentation to my ears. The whole notion of everything on audio bein... | |
| New Stereo Times review on CODA CSiB Integrated Amplifier I enjoy the CSIB over the integrated SS amps I’ve owned from Luxman (550, 590). It has great control but does it in a way with more finesse than I expected. It never seems to strain and has an illuminated by never bright mid and high region. Bass ... |
