Talon Loudspeakers Mike at Talon Audio: Thanks for your post. Although you thing my post was “getting personal” and have called me “uncouth” I take no offense, and hope you have taken no offense either. Being personal or offensive was not my intention. Being accurat... | |
best inerconnect $300 to $400 I bought my Coincident cables directly from Israel Blume. Megasam: Go ahead and buy a pair. If you don't love them, I'll buy them off you. | |
Most Honest Audio Magazine? I second (or third or forth) recommendations of Bound for Sound. For the record, their URL is http://www.boundforsound.com There is also an interesting site that reviews reviewers at http://www.high-endaudio.com/index_ac.html TAS beats Sterophile.... | |
best inerconnect $300 to $400 I also have a pair of 1 meter coincident ICs. I broke them in for more than 10 days straight paying from a CD Technics 110 disk changer as a source playing a variety of CDs. They sounded great out of the box but more mellow and defined after even ... | |
Hospital Grade Wall Outlets I understand that Woodhead outlets have a higher and purer copper content than any hospital grade outlet. I understand that an audio dealer supposedly did extensive listening testing of some 40 or more different plugs and believes Woodhead to be s... | |
what altec speakers do I have? Try this site: http://www.angelfire.com/ok/AltecLansing/index.html The operator has some sound knowledge of Altec product. If he can't help you I've got some older literature boxed up I can dig out from my days as an Altec dealer. | |
Talon Loudspeakers Carl: The Prodigy is Martin Logan's new $10k speaker that is less seamless between the analogue woofer and the electrostat. RHB isn't over priced. I think it is under priced and so not taken seriously. But their offerings aren't quite high end. My... | |
Talon Loudspeakers I've heard the Talon Khorus at some length in the company president's home driven by a fortune in Jeff Roland amps. Yes the bass is fast and tight. And that's it. After everthing I'd heard and read about the speaker I was underwhelmed. I've been i... | |
Montana speakers? Oh, and thanks Carl, for your response. Acuumjim: I didn't want to just trash the Talon Khorus. I'd like to hear more of your thoughts. | |
Montana speakers? Thanks Catman. Brauser: Do I understand that you prefer the Dunlavy to either the ML, Wilson or Whisper? Can you elaborate? I'd still like to hear from you. | |
Best speakers for 2500....thump included I recently listen to RBH 1044 and 1266 and was very impressed. I don't know if they go all the way to 30hz, but pretty close. For my ears they are more open than B&W or Paradigm of a similar price, and even than the Paradigm Studio Reference 1... | |
Sunfire with Martin Logans I've spend a fair amount of time recently auditioning ReQuests and Prodigy. I first heard Requests powered by an Adcom 5802 with Sony's SACD through the Adcom GRP 750 preamp. Male and female vocals were to die for, but there was a noticable discon... | |
Looking for loudspeakers under $4,000 Re: MLs. I heard the Prodigy this summer in San Diego driven by the big Krell monoblocks. They are impressive. I still prefer either the Dunlavy 4a or 5 to them because of better dynamics, sound staging and life. The base is more seamless on the P... | |
Looking for loudspeakers under $4,000 If you're going to heard the Talon Khite, check out the RBH 1044-SE. It is under $2k per pair. I wouldn't pay the extra for the Khite, or any Talon product. (Sorry to disappoint or offend any Talon lovers). Talon's products, IMO, are overpriced, a... | |
Montana speakers? Thank you, all of you, for your responses. They are helpful. Acuujim: I have carefully listend to the Talon Khorus (in the company president's home -- with a fortune in Jeff Roland electonics). And I hesitate to say this about them . . . but I fee... |
