Devore Super 8 speakers with WHAT cable? Take a close look at Synergistic cables. The plug in thing bothers me and quantum tunneling sounds illegal, but I've stopped thinking about cables with SR. Organic, timbre, energy, is what I would say. | |
Devore Super 8 speakers with WHAT cable? Are you trying to change some characteristic from what you are hearing now? | |
Conrad Johnson CA200 vs. Mcintosh MA6900 I seriously considered both units and after listening ended up with the ARC VSi-55. It all comes down to synergy I guess. To each his own.Good luck. | |
Do any speakers image/sound-stage close to walls? Why don't you get out to listen to some speakers while taking some classes on becoming less afraid of your wife? | |
SS Amp for natural vocals Try a Luxman. | |
I Have 100K for Speakers? From what I've heard you really need to work down from the Verity Sarastro. Good luck! | |
Synergistic LED's How long do they last ??? I hope they don't last long. I'm thinking of putting some black tape over them. The cables are great but why do I need blue light radiating all over the place? On a positive note LED's use almost no electricity. | |
Acoustic Zen Adagio vs Devore Gibbon Super 8 Verity Tamino's beat both the Forest and the 8's IMO. I've owned all three and would consider the Tamino in your mix.I've not heard the Adagio but a good friend of mine says they are really fast, best for a surround system. He find the 8's very mu... | |
Has anyone used "Quiet Rock" sheet rock in room? Also, if you are going to insulate the best option is blown in poly spray foam, next would be blown in cellulose or laying blue jean batts. Stay away from fiberglass for insulation because it's junk.Blueboard and plaster is better than sheetrock t... | |
Will the Cayin a88t drive the Totem Hawks? I had an Cayin A88t paired with Totem Forests and thought it ran out of steam in the low end. I ultimately wasn't satisfied with the imaging or the control. I would go with a bigger tube amp or a different speaker. Mo money!On the other hand there... | |
Has anyone used "Quiet Rock" sheet rock in room? Rigid foam is a great way to go. You can get anywhere from 1/2 in to 2 inch in 4x8 foot sheets. I have this on the exterior walls of my house and you can't hear anything. You would just need to make sure you or someone doing the project understand... | |
Anyone heard the New Luxman gear? Luxman is very nice. Worth tracking down for a listen. I had the 30 W class A integrated on loan for a while, and have heard ss separates with Wilson WP 8's recently. Very impressed with depth, timbre, all the right qualities. I would go down the ... | |
Is Acoustic Zen still in business? They must put all of their R&D into products, not servers! Still loading... | |
Dylan & Starbucks anyone? I've found the Starbucks "Hear Music" label almost always has well recorded music. Don't know if this is a priority or coincidence. Haven't heard the Artist Choice Dylan cd. | |
Buy a sub or ditch my new speakers altogether? You mentioned rushing in to buy something to try saving a buck. Maybe this speaker is not what you like? Try to get out and listen to few more. Bring the Solo along to establish a baseline. Dealers should be able to explain why the Solo would or w... |
