| 2023 AXPONA Show Report I’ll be attending the show as both a dealer/exhibitor and as a consumer. It’ll be my third time going, so here are some tips to make the most of it. 1. Friday morning, and late afternoons on Saturday and Sunday tend to be the quietest. Saturday m... | |
| ONE MINUTE Premium Power Cable Survey @waytoomuchstuff I have been thinking of making surveys myself to better understand the wants/desires/experiences of audiophiles and music lovers. I wasn’t sure what the participation level would be, but it seems you are getting good traction. It’... | |
| ONE MINUTE Premium Power Cable Survey @waytoomuchstuff Great survey and I look forward to seeing the results. The only suggestion I have would have been to add an option on the question about the experiences with premium cables making significant improvement to no improvement. It’s ha... | |
| T+A Solitaire S 530 Magnetostatic Speakers @audioman58 The affinity towards aesthetics are of course a personal one. The way you feel about these are the same as I feel about MBL. I appreciate MBL, but for a few reasons including aesthetics, I would never buy them. I did think that the sil... | |
| DH Labs @gochurchgo I am a DH Labs reseller and currently personally own a number of Corona and Corona Cryo power cables. While my reference cables are the much more expensive Synergistic Research Galileo SX, I am incredibly impressed with the Corona and ... | |
| T+A Solitaire S 530 Magnetostatic Speakers @audioman58 That is sad, but there are a fortunate number who can. The same goes for many things in this world. | |
| T+A Solitaire S 530 Magnetostatic Speakers Thank you @vonhelmholtz - still hoping one day you can make it over this way. | |
| T+A Solitaire S 530 Magnetostatic Speakers @fthompson251 They sure are impressive, but i believe it’s the overall design and engineering of the speaker that enables it to image and deliver the way it does, and not just the way it handles bass. I do speak so deeply on the bass performance b... | |
| T+A Solitaire S 530 Magnetostatic Speakers @roxy54 Thanks for showing your appreciation. And I agree with you, its design is a primary reason I jumped on it right away. | |
| If you had to narrow your choices to 4 - 5 speakers At AXPONA at those price ranges, I’d visit Audiovector - Look for the R3 Arrête, though they might have the R6 set up. Joseph Audio - The Perspective2 Graphene is around $16,500, but they will likely have the $40K Pearl Graphenes. They sound ve... | |
| Problems with forum lag/performance? I think this has something to do with the way Audiogon is implementing its ads and ad technologies. Do you have an ad blocker on? I’ve noticed that if my ad blocker is on using the Chrome browser, it crawls and freezes. Disabling ad blockers seems... | |
| Female XLR to RCA? In most cases, this should be fine. Though, if by design the preamp only has balanced outs, it may expect a balanced power amp, so the output gain of the preamp may be 3db lower if you use an XLR to RCA cable or connector. The impedance may also c... | |
| OMG Moment @audphile1 Maybe that’s one improvement with the Sabrinas. If you look at the design of some of the higher up models, the tweeters are angled downwards. It doesn’t seem to be the case with the Sabrinas. I might have gotten 6ft on some tracks, but ... | |
| Denafrips Terminator Plus vs T+A DAC 200 @mikicasellas I can answer that, though I have owned both at different times. Before I was a dealer, I owned a PS Audio DirectStream DAC which I modified heavily with upgraded transformers, linear power supply, etc. I purchased a brand new Lampiza... | |
| OMG Moment I would say the smaller Wilson speakers do image quite low. I am fairly short and have a low height listening chair, so while the Wilson Yvette imaged well, vocalists still seemed they were sitting. The speakers I’ve had prior (Legacy Aeris) and a... |
