| Has anyone ever cried listening to your system Eva Cassidy's Songbird had that very effect on me once. I will never forget it because it was a Sunday, I was feeling terribly down and so sad all day on that day and could not figure out why. Must have been some kind of ESP, the following Tuesday... | |
| Dynaudio Audience 72 vs. 72SE I believe the SE's use woofers from the old Contour line v/s the ones from the Audience line. That woofer is capable of more subtle sound and detail but will "bottom out" at very high power with a scary "Wackk" sound. As long as you don't drive it... | |
| Speaker for low volume listening with high WAF ATC, I recently moved to the SCM 12 and have them close to the wall with no ill-effect (sealed design). I am so happy with them I doubt I will ever go to another brand (well never say never...). In short: accuracy, full bodied, dynamic (micro and ... | |
| mid fi choices NAD vs Adcom vs Rotel ... $400 Familiar with all three, I prefer the NAD and owned 2 pairs of the 370 integrated at one time. The NAD is more full bodied and has delicate highs. In my experience the Adcom has tighter but thinner bass while the rotel can become fatiguing with th... | |

| Your favorite recent discovery Paris Combo, so good you won't mind they sing in french. Gypsy music, sweet spanish and Italian melodies, cool american jazz and a smoky hint of Django Reinhardt all in one!!!!!!!!! | |
| Vienna Acoustics Mahler, carpet piercing cones? Thanks to all, very usefull information, I'm off to do the research based on the recommendations.ThanksBruno | |
| Cheap tweaks...What would YOU reccomend? For the tightest bass, drive self drilling screws directly into the sub-floor (through the carpet), and rest your speaker spikes on the screw heads. You will need to pick screws with a wide nut type head, otherwise it is "very" difficult to line u... | |
| Best female vocals on CD For goose bumps, I always turn to: Jenna Mammina "meant to be" and "under the influence" (available at www.jennamammina.com), Kiki dee "almost naked" live, and Eva Cassidy "songbird". | |
| 13' x 9' room big enough? Absolutely, if you don't have the speakers yet, go for some that are not too picky about placement (Dynaudio, Audio Physics, most good monitors). Stay clear of dipoles, bipoles and time alligned (Thiel) as they like the listener further out (over ... |
