| Comparing Rythmik F12 and F12G: Which is Better for Music and Movies? I can vouch for the F12G and Rythmik. I purchased one along with the SVS3000. I kept them both for years before moving on. I'd say out of the 2 the F12G was better and more adjustable. The nice thing about the SVS however is they have an app that ... | |
| Audioquest or Nordost for speaker cable I had a full Frey 2 Nordost loom years ago with the QX4, QB8, the whole nine yards. This was with Leben electronics and Devore speakers. I loved this setup and always thought if one was to get into Nordost the Frey was the sweet spot. Over time ... | |
| Focal v Wilson @edelbby, you have some really great classic and desirable gear, no doubt. IMO you are out pacing your gear at a similar pace by looking at a once classic "high end" speaker. I've spent lots of time with the WP8, and it was much better than the ... | |
| must you play music to break in tubes I've tapped the tube of tubes with a pencil eraser before with excellent results. Now I'm not telling you to do this, but I'd do it again if I had a little static or popping before giving up on them. That said, the seller might be full of it as s... | |
| Focal v Wilson I was passed down some old McIntosh gear and while I loved the nostaligic feeling I felt like I was driving a 74 Cadillac with a faulty sway bar, bald tire and a dirty carburetor. The feeling of me being 10 years old wore off in few weeks and I ju... | |
| 1960 Klipsch Heresy Value There is a good site that combines most sold hifi gear from the bigger players. It's called hifi shark. it's pretty easy to use, just make sure you are looking at sold and not listed items. It's not perfect because it gives you the last "listed" p... | |

| How you know your system is improving? I'd like to add that your senses, mind and attitude are all part of your endeavor. Sounds cliche but your mind will expand and learn over time, your senses will become more acute because you're are focusing your energy on them. Your attitude or se... | |
| Proac K6 Signature, Sonus Faber Amati Tradition,Verity Audio Amadis, Kharma DB-9 I somewhat agree with Toronto416. I've also heard that the speakers are relatively indestructible (blowing) as far as the drivers are concerned. My concern would be if someone put a broomstick or something through a driver. Who will fix it? Are t... | |
| The receiver was my intro to HiFi! What say you? @bigwave1 I bought a pair of Bose 401's from Crazy Eddie. | |
| Spendor D7.2 Pairing - First Watt F8 When you said large and open it makes me think less boundary reinforcement and might be better of with something like the Volti or Forte 4. I’ve owned Devores, Verity, Daedalus, Zu Union, and demoed the D7. I really like the Forte but I’m in a les... | |

| Verity Audio speaker manufacturer silent... @tomcy6 the cabinet quality is very high. To say this design is a monitor with a dedicated sub dumbs it down, but I think this design gives them the incredible dimensionality. |
