| Does 'Accuracy' Matter or exist ? Jax2, that Richard Estes and Cornell stuff is realy thought provoking! Do you have any other favorites? Anyone else that can compare to Evind Earl? Just like getting into audio, I thought art was okay until I saw Evind Earl. That was something tha... | |
| Does 'Accuracy' Matter or exist ? BTY Jax2, I did not see your post of 5-15-11 so wasn't even relating what I wrote to that but thanks for the explanation anyhow. | |
| Does 'Accuracy' Matter or exist ? Hi Jax, I always enjoy your insightful posts. I thought the OP was referring to "accuracy" in terms of the chain of events - including the stereo itself- in the reproduction of the music, not the actual event itself. I can see you point about a mu... | |

| The best speaker you ever heard? the Evans Model One but this Model One with no crossover and full range is just spectacular This has been my experience as well. Tom Evans uses a Jordan JX-92S driver? IMHO there are even better options than the Jordan. | |
