| Any experience with Verity Parsifal monitor ONLY? I have the latest Parsifal Encore with bass modules and a Rel Stadium III sub. I will play with the monitors and sub only and will get back to you. The Parsifal is a great bargain in audio. Most Verity product are. | |
| High end audio - London I don't but I demoed a t+a integrated that was digital and found the speaker control to be amazing but the sound to be somewhat flat or two dimensional. Glassy is not really a good word, but a polished glass has two dimensions in my mind if that m... | |
| Avalon Eidolon Diamond vs Revel Salon 2 I've heard Avalon speakers many times at a high end shop in Boston. I think they are misunderstood by audiophiles with good intentions trying to fit them into the wrong room. These speakers need room to breath. I've heard them best 10 feet from th... | |
| Ayre AX-5 Integrated Amplifier Silly to think about how much it should cost. Raw materials are one thing but when you consider the production facility and labor and marketing... trickle down technology and intellectual property rights? Plus Bolder ain't cheap and lift tickets k... | |
| Lots of detail, great imaging, not much bass? How good is the guys hearing? Maybe Totem Hawk or I do like the Silverline. Verity Tamino but I haven't seen them used in a year or so. Never heard the decapos but I think I'd like them. | |
| Cables more hype than value? Anyone remember the old Tales from the Crypt with the cable guy? Abel with the cable? Would be a good slogan. | |
| Review: Nordost QX4 AC filter I own the QX4 and would describe it as you have. I think it is a great product that has become an integral part of my system. | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? No I didn't but I've spent lots of time with the Aquila and that is an amazing speaker. I can only imagine what the Altairs are like. Have you compared them? | |
| Vandy 5a's spider cracks in heads Agree with the above. He will fix them for free or very little if the design is not structurally sound. This is how he built his business! | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? I listened to the Magico Q7 at a local Boston dealer a few months ago and was taken away by the power and scale of the music. The room was big and well treated and the amplification and components were excellent. The speakers were placed slightly ... | |
| verity audio parsifal Davt, what are you driving the Parsifals with? I'm using a low powered class A luxman. | |
| Vandersteen 5a battery biased crossovers I changed them myself when I had the 5's with the help of jeweler friend. He supplied me with some nice silver. I agree about the heat on the batteries but what else can he do. He seems to have "mastered" this design. | |
| Lottery Winner would buy what kind of Stereo Gear I'd buy Bose and Wilson and maybe have a decent sounding speaker. | |
| Is there a perfect speaker? Go to the back room in Goodwin's in Waltham, MA and you will hear the most perfect of today. They have lots of speakers and amplification in all ranges. From there you can decide if a second mortgage is the route you want to go or make some sacrif... | |
| Nordost Frey interconnect hum I noticed a hum when I didn't have them properly set. Just jiggle and tighten or remove and put them on again. Great cables. |
