| How high is your soundstage? I am pretty sure its my room.I'm betting you're right. On your System page, it looks quite small for those speakers. If you're up for it, move the system into a bigger room just for testing purposes, and see what happens to the stage. | |
| The best CD Player for the money I am sure that there will be many around here to believe that Op Amps can beat tubes so your statement that your Op Amp/Black Gate 3930 "completely cream APL 3910" might actually flyHere it comes, the double blind facial! Cameras ready... | |

| Need your help finding a pair of speakers......... Boa2, S7Horton, am I missing something? The 50 hours listening time you guys mentioned: Where o where does that come from?Thank you all for your feedbacks. Unfortunately, I only have about 50 -70 hours on the Andras.

| Cars R OK, but what kind of motorcycle do you have Thanks to a suggestion by my wife, who used to show horses professionally, I "steered away" from counter-steering. Steering by rotating the hips and tensing the inner thigh allows for much better control--especially at higher speeds--than does cou... | |
| Second round of auditions under my belt Seadweller, in your last thread on this topic, it was established--or so I thought--that box speakers in general didn't convey the energy you want. Therefore, it's not surprising that another round of listening to box speakers was not likely to ... |
