Which companies deserve a star for Christmas Hi all ! My votes go to.....VTL , Thiel , Tekton Design , Transcendent Sound and Bottlehead . | |
Home Theater vintage Thiel set up question Hi all ! It looks like he is happy the way it is. There are a bunch of combinations he could try...right now I would leave it ( and him ) alone and enjoy ! cheers ! | |
Power Cord for Power Conditioner Hi all ! Lacee : I agree 100 % with you . The same guys who cant hear the diff a power cord makes start with the same insults....or my favorite " if you cant measure it , it cant be true" Those comments make me want to pee in my pants they are so ... | |
how much power Hi all ! Marakanetz : You obviously have not heard the Tekton Lore's with 10 or less wpc . Enough said . | |
What component is responsible for dynamics ? Hi all ! Onhwy61: Dont think I listen much above moderate or slightly higher levels , not sure of the SPL. I dont think the 4wpc setup gets louder than the 160wpc setup , it just seems to be more dynamic and quicker sounding . Also , since I chang... | |
Home Theater vintage Thiel set up question Hi all ! Glad it worked well for you . I was considering the 3's at one time but due to low funds went with the 2's . The local dealer and a few customers recommended using the 3's sans EQ. Never know till you try . Btw , the 2's are the easiest t... | |
Using Granite under speakers HI all ! yes , it tightened up the bass a bunch and raised the speakers just a little...which was welcomed . | |
Vacuum tube preamp? Hi all ! I have had 2 pairs of the CS2's . They are the easiest of all Thiel speakers to drive , so dont limit your choices on the preamp side . A Belles a150 will drive the crap out of those and can be had for $400 - $500...this amp is nice and w... | |
What component is responsible for dynamics ? Hi all ! IMHO the speakers for sure , I just went from a 90db speaker with 160 wpc to a 98 db speaker with 4 wpc . The 4 wpc setup blows away the 160 wpc setup as far as dynamics go . Also , we talk about efficiency...what about sensitivity ? (not... | |
Good tube amp kit for sale these days Hi all ! Just recently built a 4 wpc amp from Transcendent Sound...easy build and sounds great . Just ordered a pair of 300b mono blocks from Bottlehead . Should be an easy build and seems like great value for the money . If you need more power th... | |
Bryston sound 'neutral' ???? Hi all ! IMHO there is no piece of gear which is completely neutral . Each has its own sonic flavor . The key is putting components together which complements each other . For example a dark amp and bright speakers are a good match . If every comp... | |
Best speakers in the 3000 -5000 range Hi all ! I would check out the Tekton Design speakers as they perform way above what they....oh crap ,just remembered their most expensive speaker is only $2500 . OOPS , sorry they dont cost enough to compete with the $5000 ones . ( from a guy who... | |
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Hi all ! Great idea guys as I like to stand sometimes and listen , tilting them a bit might be the ticket . I agree these things just nuts . Everyone that has heard mine just sit there and shake their heads , esp when I tell them they are only get... | |
Power Cord for Power Conditioner Hi all ! It does also make the component tunable .Many owners manuals talk about replacing the stock cord with an aftermarket cord . Hint : It isnt because the component manufacturers and the cable manufacturers are sleeping together . | |
Using Granite under speakers Hi all ! I went to a place that makes marbel and granite countertops . They made me two for my speakers and one to put my amp on . Think I paid 20 or $25 for each slab . Oh , and they cut them to my specs and polished all but the bottoms. |
