| Cartridge for Symphonic music . I will recommend two cartridges in your budget, but neither are a good match for your turntable and tonearm:1- London Decca Gold, $1,200. Simply the most revealing cartridge and widest soundstage I have ever heard. Detailed but not bright, steri... | |
| Best vintage DD turntables from the 70's and 80's? When I worked for RSL in the 1970s we were a Luxman dealer. As I recall, the Luxman repair tech that would come by the stores occasionally told me that the PD-441 and PD-444 motors were designed for Luxman and manufactured by Teac. | |
| Klipsch Heresy III vs Forte III The Forte is a completely different speaker than the Heresy. IMO it sound much more detailed and has a much larger soundstage and presence than the HIII yet is just as musical; maybe more so. But it's also significantly larger cabinet.As good as... | |
| Klipsch Forte III--Pleasantly Surprised mrdecibel said:" Just to be clear, the Fortes are not part of the Heritage line."I'm looking at a Klipsch brochure from 1991 titled Klipsch Heritage Speakers and it lists the following models: Khorn, La Scala, Belle, Chorus II, Forte II, Quartet ... | |
| Klipsch Forte III--Pleasantly Surprised I love the Klipsch Heritage line. Not a polite, refined sound but big and brassy. Great for jazz and hot vaocals.The Forte II/III is a great speaker, but IMO the Chorus just sounds better. A little larger and weighs a LOT more than the Forte, t... | |
| LTA micro zotl preamp kw6, I think that we are getting mixed up with naming. Admittedly, LTA does not make it easy. I assume that you just purchased the new micro ZOTL preamp. I owned the older MZ2 unit, which was an integrated amp but many guys used it as a preamp. ... | |
| LTA micro zotl preamp kw6, How would you compare the sound of the microzotl to the MZ2?I ask because I purchased an MZ2 last year, for my den. And while the unit is very quiet it does not compare, soundwise, to my Radu Tarta/Shiny Eyes 41PL DHT preamp. Admittedly, I'... | |
| Small or large sub for music sleepwalker65 wrote: Subwoofers are a bad solution for inadequate speakers. They are mutually exclusive with high fidelity because they can never perfectly integrate. Some people and rappers don’t care about sound quality. Low-Fi is fine for them... | |
| Speaker driver sizes - pros and cons timlub, with all due respect I do not agree for several reasons:1- Mass is always an issue. Larger motors do help, but the reaction time also increases; larger motor or not.2- Mass vs motor: over-driving the cone is typically only a concern with ... | |
| Speaker driver sizes - pros and cons timlub, you forgot to mention that smaller drivers are usually faster than larger drivers - less mass to push and pull back and forth.Also, I disagree that small speakers can't reproduce a large orchestral experience. You just need more than one;... | |
| Sean Casper 421a or Don Garber 421A amp? A Sean Casper 421A amp just sold on USAA. It seemed to go for a very fair price. I thought about bidding on it myself but got distracted.Are you lucky enough to think you'll find a Don Garber amp for sale these days? Well do you, punk? (sorry, ... | |
| DECWARE.....ZTPRE anyone have any expeiriance with one ? I have heard the new ZTPre "V6" design, paired with decware 6Wpc monoblocks and decware speakers, and I can definitively say that it is not rolled off on the bottom end. It's an excellent and unique dual mono preamp design. If you need a tube pr... | |
| What are best hi efficiency speakers under $1000? I guess a late reply is better than none. | |
| Potential issues using low powered tube amp with electrostatic speakers Hmmm, it might work but I wouldn't bet that you will be happy. The Ethos speakers use a powered sub section and are rated at 92dB. But my guess is that you are not going to get optimal performance from this amp/speaker combination. You haven't ... | |
| Small Bedroom Tube Amp The Peachtree amps, as mentioned by uberwaltz, are a good option but they are not tube amps.There are many good, inexpensive tube amps available that are certainly more than good enough for bedroom use. I would suggest that you take a look at the... |
