| Your ''best kept secret'' speaker choice ? I would say Royd Audio from England. I know of only 3 dealers of the speakers between Canada and the US. Royd is a small manufacturer of speakers and are not very well known in the US but they do have a cult following in Japan. I have a pair of Do... | |
| Opinions of Cliffhanger Bulldogs TNT-Audio did a nice review of them also - http://www.tnt-audio.com/casse/bulldog_e.htmlDavr | |
| Wharfedale Emerald 93 Opinions I forgot to mention that Wharfedale is now owned by IAG, which owns Qaud also. I think they are trying to bring back this speaker name. | |
| Wharfedale Emerald 93 Opinions I own two sets of Wharfedales - Diamond 7.2's and the MFM-1's. They are not bad speakers for the money, especially the Diamonds - read a review on them.http://www.tnt-audio.com/casse/wharf72e.htmlDave | |
| Which speaker is the master of IMAGING ???? I think you could get as many answers as people on this forum. I think this is a 'non-question'. I think if the speaker is of decent quality and setup properly, one should get a decent image from it.Dave | |
| Opinions - Best ever Adcom model??? What about pre-amp/amp combos. I am in the process of acquiring an Adcom GFP-1 preamp to go along with a 1979 Mitsubishi DA-A10DC amp (dno't laugh - it is a powerhouse amp!!).Dave | |
| Japanese/Asian Speakers??? I also found out that there is a Japanese cult following for various british speakers made by small boutique companies. Royd Audio is one these companies.Dave | |

| Speaker Suggestion for teenage pre-stereophile For around 500 dollars I will suggest looking at the Monitor Audio Silver S1 bookshelf speaker - very nice sounding and nice looking speaker.Dave | |
| JMLAB, QUAD OR THIEL.? Do you floorstanding or stand-mounted speakers - the Thiels are floorsatnders but you could really only get the smaller one used for that price.What are you lookng for in a speaker - what characteristics do you like or don't like.I really haven't ... | |
| Small floorstander recommendations I have some others to add to the list - if you can find them. They are: Rega Alya and Neat Loudspeaker's Elite. They are around the same price point as the others (maybe a little more - in line with the Linn Ninka's) and are really nice sounding a... | |
| Little Know Speaker Builders How about Royd Loudspeakers from England? They are handbuilt and sound fantastic for the money.They do retail in shops but there are not that many dealers in the States.Dave | |

| Has anyone heard the Swan Diva line of Speakers? David99,You can buy the tweeter at Audioexpress as well as the metal cone woofers - they are HiVi units.Dave |
