| Has anyone listened to Legacy speakers? Legacy took the cabinet design of the new Classic HD and made the Focus SE plus stronger bracing with some wiring and tweaking. More than one customer has suggested that the SE Focus should be the new HD model and drop the box design. | |
| Power problems.... Ground, dedicated lines, ect I called the engineer at Furman and he said I had a ground loop problem. He suggested I call a local TV or Radio station and find out what electrical company they used. Sure enough they ( local TV station electrical contractor) had a mans name who... | |
| Note for those who buy used equipment... I always thought that a serial number on a unit was the confirmation that the product was manufactured by the company with and including a build and sale date. Why is there a grey market anyway? To sell refurbished gear or companies who make make ... | |
| Has anyone listened to Legacy speakers? The largest music company in the world ( UMG ) has Legacy speakers in it's show room in NYC ( as of last June ). The questions or issues with the older speakers is a moot point now. If you have the older line there are those here who can help get ... | |

| Blu Ray or Oppo? I just got the new Oppo 981HD. I have seen em as low as 165.00 on the net ( 229.00 ). The picture quality is as good as they say. Enough for me to wait for Blu Ray movies and players to come down in price. This reminds me of the DTS vs Dolby war. ... | |
| Legacy Audio Focus 20/20 spikes I have the new Classic HD's. They come with a whole new adjustable spike system. I ended up getting the rubber feet/extensions from Legacy. I too have a carpet floor on concrete and getting them so they are solid and don't rock is an issue. The ru... | |
| Headphones vs loudspeakers I do Pro Audio location recording ( but on the low end pro scale..lol) . Mostly ambient nature and wildlife. Working in my studio with near field speakers is kinda like headphones. You hear everything. What happens is you are aware of what you wan... | |
| REGA APOLLO I agree about the 50 hours of play. After that I think you just enjoy it better. I like the burn in CD's, setting your FM tuner to pink noise and I play something like the 2007 Grammys CD that has a variety and dynamic music. My personal method of... | |
| Any B&W 802D/800D alternatives looks and sound? I have heard the B&W's using McIntosh and quality set up. Legacy Audio in their new HD series an option to hear. The B&W is a warmer sound ( with the mac's) or as some say... neutral. The Legacy is more defined or revealing. Meaning bad re... | |
| REGA APOLLO I have a new ( 2 weeks old ) Apollo and maybe the reason some don't talk about them is because they are not so called the new kid on the block now. Also, companies DO make changes in hardware and software on an existing product. Meaning the consum... | |
| Legacy Classic HD 2008 I received the new Coda preamp and it sounds great. The Bryston in bypass mode sounded great. But the volume control had a large slope in the gain. The Coda has a 2 db volume adjustment starting at 0. It's easier to bump up the volume to a specifi... | |
| Speaker direction? Believe it or not the iPod is the best thing to happen to music. It's not showing up right now, but this new generation will evolve to BETTER sound! because they are at least interested. The future for HD recordings that go hand in hand with Video... | |
| Legacy Silver Screen issues If the silver screen has the same matching drivers your problem is somewhere else in the chain ( or problem speaker that Legacy needs to check out). I ran one with Classics for 8 years with perfect match/blend. I now have the new HD series with th... | |
| Speaker direction? I believe this subject is based on finding the magic "sweet spot" where the soundstage is..... what your system ( speakers) has or can produce. The amount of toe in is like what was explained above. The best way to know if you have found your "swe... |
