| gallo 3.1 repair There is already a thread going regarding speakers for classical music that you might want to check out. The interesting thing about classical recordings is the volume levels between discs can be huge, as much as 10-15 db. Just curious as to what ... | |
| Anthony Gallo 5LS I would love to hear what they sound like. Looks like the 5LS' use pretty much the same hardware as the 3.1's so they may sound similar but obviously with more height. | |
| NAD C372 & Gallo Ref 3.1 Katee, glad to see you are happy with your setup. | |
| Tubed Pre match with a Spectron Musician IIISE? Yesterday I was talking to Simon from Spectron and he recommended Promitheus as a nice inexpensive pre-amp to use with their amps. | |
| NAD C372 & Gallo Ref 3.1 Focus 2020's, $6500, Gallo's, $3000. small price difference. | |
| bldg system starting with Gallo Ref 3.1 I use a Pioneer Elite VSX-94TXH receiver with my Gallo's and I couldn't be happier. The audio is quite remarkable for a mid-level receiver. I can also upgrade with an external amp if I choose to sometime in the future. This receiver also has a por... | |
| Gallo Reference 3.1 questions... Danmeyers, sounds like things are progressing with your Gallos as expected. Along with heavy break-in I did quite a bit of experimenting with placement and the rake of the speaker.Joek, you should have enough power but the Gallos do like lots to r... | |
| Gallo Reference 3.1 questions... I was just saying that the Gallo's will sound even better over time than what you are hearing now. My other remarks were somewhat gratuitous and aimed at other posters who don't like the way Gallo's sound when testing them at a showroom or store. | |
| Gallo Reference 3.1 questions... Luigy39, You will find after further break-in that the Gallo's will take on added warmth. I'm guessing that maybe one of the issues with the Gallo's is how they sound when new. I actually liked mine when they were new but the speakers they replace... | |
| Returning to REO's "Hi-Infidelity"..... I remember seeing REO in the early 70's at am old abandoned farm outside of Algonquin, IL. Outdoor concert with maybe a few hundred people attending. They put one a good show. It was a few years later that REO hit it big. Man, I am getting old! | |
| Speaker suggestions third vote for Gallo's, or at least check them out. | |
| Speakers too wide apart? agreed | |
| Best Recording of Music Thank you mrpresident I will definitely pick up a copy.As far as sgt pepper I can't disagree. The Beatles, along with their songs, had producer Sir George Martin who had much to do with their success. | |
| Gallo Reference 3.1 questions... Don't know about Stereophile but check out the 6moons website. They have 2-3 very in-depth reviews in the archive section. These guys mostly review high end equipment and they love these speakers. | |
| Gallo Reference 3.1 questions... Congratulations! Make sure you follow the directions regarding break-in. Play music with a predominant low frequency at a high volume. If you happen to have Sirius radio there is a Trance/Progressive station that plays music that is perfect for br... |
