| Are dome midrange better than cone designs? I was really enthused until I read Jtgofish's problems with imaging.It is pretty simple to put the 4" Flexbar into a pre-made .375 cu-ft Parts-Express cabinet. Mating a good tweeter may be the problem as Audio technology recommends an x-over of 6k... | |
| Suggestions for small shelf sytem.... Teac reference on sale right now at A-gon. Funny tonality IMHO.I prefer Denon UD-M31 or D-F101s. Just upgrade the speakers. | |
| What other hobby or hobbies do you have? I haven't had so much fun with a toy since I got into the stereo hobby:$29 R/C helicopterIt's addictive and one more thing to keep me from getting any work done. | |
| Power: Good or Bad I second the synergy thing. A gainclone amp is about as simple as you can get. But the sound has been described as grainy, harsh in the H-F, and lacking drive. Sometimes the simplest is too simple. IMHO they are a great match with single driver sp... | |
| Anybody tried this ? "Most great ideas are found in the competitor's trash bin"I always liked that quote.IMHO many hi-end stereos are voiced to produce dissatisfaction by emphasizing one certain aspect to the detriment of others. Most hi-end stuff does something to th... | |
| I've reached the beginning of the end - I hope I got rid of my system because the bright sound was damaging my hearing. I could hear to 20k before but now 16-18k. Brightness aside, it did not sound right to my ears.I got a simple system to "get by" with and have yet to find the perfect sound.H... | |
| Vibration absorbing material. "Looking for a way to isolate vibrations in my wood enclosed stereo cabinet"You like the sound these vibrations make when amplified through your system? | |
| One's trash is someone else's treasure "everybody hates the Jews"I don't. | |
| Getting off the merry-go-round – AFRAID TO??? Music reproduction is an art form. There is no right or wrong audio just like there is no right or wrong oil painting. You get tired of one artistic presentation and go for a different one. No end to it. | |
| Upgrading Entire System...please help What was your relatives stereo? If that sound impressed you so much maybe we can come up with a cheaper, but similar sounding, system. | |
| Gain Cards and Gain Clones, how do they different Gain clone is a copy of the original Gaincard.Peter Daniels of Audio Sector in Canada has gain clones reviewed at 6moons.com and they are rated better than the original gaincard and priced at 1/2 the cost to boot. | |
| Should a good system sound bad with bad recording? I spent a very interesting morning at a local dealer. He knew I was just looking around while my girlfriend was up the street.We ended up going through his whole product line. He kept referring to "audiophile' speakers as we listened to the small ... | |
| When is your system good enough-and why? It makes the music sound as good as possible. It doesn't cross the line where I start worrying about sounds and components - bad CD quality, bright I/C's, etc. | |
| Very small bookshelf speakers / system Denon, Yamaha, and Onkyo are much better than any JVC I have heard IMHO, including the wood cone model. | |
| Very small bookshelf speakers / system The latest Denon mini-speakers are crap, IMHO. They will have to be replaced. Maybe you could get an older system with the REAL Mission speakers.Also there is a big improvement in sound by hooking up any mini to a CDP with the AUX input. Much bett... |
