Any Royd speaker fans out there? I have a set of Royd Doublets - actually the last ones that were for sale in North America. What amazing speakers!! THe doublets really out performed away the competition, IMHO, when I was auditioning speakers. The list was: VA Beethovens, Linn Ni... | |
Small floorstander recommendations I have listened to the VA Bachs and found them very thumpy and loose in the bass department - not really what I expected from them.Another one to listen to is the Linn Ninka's - beautiful speaker cabinets!Dave | |
Small floorstander recommendations It is a sad fact that you cannot find Royd Doublets anymore - they stopped producung them. I have a pair and they are amazing for a small floorstanding speaker. It will give many all you have mentioned a run for their money. I bought a pair for 13... | |

Speakers that have holographic imaging on vocals.. I will add Royd speakers to this list. They do an amazing job on vocals and the 3D imaging is just amazing. | |
Quality of Stereophile Class A speakers at 2K? I feel there is a 'snob' fest going on at Stereophile. I have listened to some of there rated 'class A' speakers and found them wholely lacking. I also notice they mainly rate the really expensive speakers higher than most of the lower end speaker... | |

Upgrade my Monitor audio Studio 12 What size is your room? What equipment do you have?I could certainly suggest speakers to try - the new Monitor Audio Silver S line is a great place to start - big improvement over older lines. You could try JMLabs Cobalt line - very efficient but ... | |
Speakers to hang on to for LIFE It is interesting to read everyone posts/opinions. I really don't think speaker design has really changed much - materials on the cones, maybe, but they are basically put together in the same way. It still is an art to design a speaker properly. A... | |

How long it take to run in brand new loudspeaker? I recently heard the new Monitor Audio Silver S line of speakers and they sounded fantastic right out of the box. I mean they were unpacking them before I listened to them. There have been many threads on different forums on this exact topic and I... | |

Linn's Ninka speaker: Anyone heard it?? I have heard the Ninka's on an all Linn system and was surprised by the muddiness of sound (was playing Bela Fleck and the Flecktones - Outbound). Many of the instruments got lost or couldn't hear them. They were much better, though, than the Vien... | |

AV receiver for 4 ohm speakers? The switches are actually small resistors that you can move in and out of the electrical path. They may change the way your speakers sound - don't use them. It is a cheesy way to get your 4 ohm speakers look 8 ohm to your amp.My old H-K 795i recei... |
