| Can you ever go back and be happy? John (Jafox): Let me know next time you'll be down toward Chicago, and maybe the fellow who owns that system will let us come over :-)Brian | |
| Can you ever go back and be happy? Norm, the company out of Florida you're probably trying to think of is Acoustat. I see you've owned a few speakers :-) all of which I've heard except the Servo-Statiks. I've found those which employ a flat profile are more prone to the 'wide mouth... | |
| Can you ever go back and be happy? Chadnliz: No, these are big. | |
| Best Dac/Transport Under 50,000 Raquel, the US distributor of EMM is Philip O'Hanlon in California.The Reimyo is a good suggestion. Audiomeca Mephisto also may be of interest.Brian | |
| Callisto Sig with 1 PS vs MP1 Atma-Sphere Please describe the rest of your system in which it would be used.Brian | |
| Does digital affect analog sound?? It isn't your imagination. Analog can be adversely affected by noise put back into the system, i.e. a backwave. Proper line filtering can take it out.Brian | |
| Quad vs. Martin Logan? I have owned several electrostats, including Acoustat 2+2s and Audiostatic ES100+SW100s. I still own Quad ESL 57s as well as Sound Labs which I own and am a dealer for. I have listened to most of the other speakers mentioned and always find myself... | |

| CAT JL2 & Pre SL1 or Atma-Sphere MA-1 & MP-1 The Coincidents are an excellent match with Atma-Sphere electronics. An MP-3 or MP-1 preamp is a synergistic match with the MA-1s - the special caps option for the preamp is recommended. I haven't compared either with the CAT preamp so can't comme... | |
| A question to you all........ Rwd, I wouldn't expect Sound Lab to be there. Normally they do one show a year, the CES. Your best option is to contact Sound Lab who may refer you to your nearest dealer. We're an accommodating lot :-) | |
| Good percussion You might also want to check out this recent thread...lots of recommendations...Brian | |
| Not recognized in their lifetime? Hack, I agree Frank Zappa was very misunderstood. But what did you expect for someone who named his children Dweezil and Moon Unit? | |
| Speakers that work with Atma-sphere M60 amps. Add Lowthers to the list. Members of the Chicago Horn Club heard a pair of Lowther PM2As driven by a pair of Atma-Sphere MA-1s a few weeks ago to great effect, perhaps overkill since M-60s and probably an S-30 would have been adequate.

| Proac Response 2.5 vs D25 The newer D series from ProAc tend to be less tube friendly, since they are rated at 4 ohms nominal. They have been using SS amplification at recent shows as I recall.Brian | |
| Wilson Audio, Talon, Rockport and B&W Jtinn: your comments are inaccurate. For example, see Michael Fremer's review of the Rockport Antares and measurements taken. By the way, they sell for $41,500. |
