| Most enjoyable speaker you heard under $800?? Fried A/3s, made back in the mid 80s (they retailed for about $600 then). Killer speaker, so good that I own one pair and a second set of original replacement drivers and crossovers. | |
| My stereo isn't doing it for me. Need advice Dfarmer,A budget CD player can sound damn fine, and anyone who has been in this game long enough can tell you that. Please give the pontificating about $3000 players a break. Dylanfan, ignore this "advice." | |
| Parasound Halo A52 keeps shutting off / protection The termination should not cause this. I'd contact Parasound and ask what they advise, as this may be a known issue. Good luck (the Halo amps have a gazillion million parts that can fail). | |
| Weird problem. Bad tube or something else? Sounds like there might be bill if anything needs repairing (sorry, had to go there). | |
| JL Audio F110 Loud pop when pc unplugged ? That should not be unless you are unplugging them while their caps are still charged, maybe? Does this happen after they've been off for say a few hours? | |
| Spotify or Pandora Love Pandora's easy and logical interface and "good enough" sound. Spotify? Perhaps the worst interface I've ever encountered. Just my 2Cents worth. | |
| Totem Forest Signature -or- Spendor D7 "SPENDORs are great but work best with British electronics for like reasons."No, no, no Spendors work "best" with whatever you think sounds best. This statement is the equivalent of saying that German cars drive best with German tires or German fu... | |
| Where can make power cord be detachable for LS15 Not worth it at all. It's a PIA, will cost, and result in EXACTLY the same sound you have now. | |
| HELP Mac-mini or Macbook Pro Yep, MacMini. I've got the 2013 version, and it's whisper quiet and super great WONDERFUL product. | |
| FM broadcast vs. streaming I listen to FM classical a lot via my trusty NAD tuner, and I find that it has an "air" about it that digital radio does not, especially noticeable during prime transmission times, i.e. between 12AM and 6AM. FM just sounds more alive for whatever ... | |
| How much does your system retail for? Apparently modesty and audiophiles do not go hand in hand perhaps the tackiest thread I've seen on AG. | |
| ATC scm40 or Spendor A9 As a Spendor owner for 16 years, I would audition the SP100s or SP1/2Es before you spring for ATCs or the A9s. Neither will "kick" like the ATCs or A9s or have quite the bass extension, but after you hear just how sublime they are w/Class A, I dou... | |
| Proac problem: tweeters or crossover? Zd542,"Break in" for tweeters Really? I am sorry, but please don't provide such advice when clearly you know nothing about how electronics or transducers work.Twoleftears, this is exactly how normally properly functioning tweeters sound when opera... | |
| Clean those conduit boxes. "There is a definite sound improvement after I occasionally cut power to my system and then power it up again."In the time-honored words of Click and Clack, the Tappit Brothers: "BALOGNA," "PAA-LLEEASE," and "THAT'S B-O-O-O-O-GUS." We're not a tou... | |
| What are your favorite speaker finishes? I had a pair of Spendor SP 2/3s in cherry that were absolutely beautiful the BEST cherry finish I've ever seen. Sometimes when the evening sun hit them, I just stared at them, really. The modern cherry finishes seem to be too light and character-l... |
