| under $300 bookshelfs: does excitement exist? Johnnantis here is the site:superelfThey used to be $64.00 + $58 for two cabinets = $122.00I don't know if they have cabinets anymore.I guess the word I was struggling to find was "natural".That is why they have a satisfying sound. You can get a $... | |
| under $300 bookshelfs: does excitement exist? They are better than the Mission speakers that come with the Denon UD-M31 mini-system. On Sade's "Is it a crime" they have outstanding balance between cymbals and sax. The Tang-Band W3-871's are MUCH flatter than any Cain&Cain etc. single driv... | |
| Best overall Speakers for $2,500.00 or less, New? Virgos are ~$7,000 new. B&W 700 series are about $2,500 and very nice. | |
| So I heard some B&W Signature 805s today... Try Focus FS-688's:{url=http://www.soundstage.com/revequip/focusaudio_fs688.htm]Focus FS-688[/url]Or Merlin TSM's. | |
| TAS Total Victory Review The $4,599 Victory with ribbon tweeter was one of only a few speakers (ProAc Future .5's, Merlin VSM-M, ATC active's) that made me question my speaker purchase.Much more detailed, lively and involving than Eclipse series IMHO. I don't know why the... | |
| Help me find it again I agree about changing your speakers. Avanteguarde are emotionally involving but they do have horn colorations and you may not like living with that either.Vienna Acoustics, Aerial Acoustics, or Vandersteen as others have suggested are good altern... | |
| Best Integrated for under $1000 Musical Fidelity A300 150wpc. | |
| Home audio drivers vs. car audio drivers Thanks Sean, the link did not work:http://www.theultimatemonitor.com/default2.htm | |
| Best all around box speaker between 15K and 25K ATC active 100's blow Wilson's away in accuracy, clarity without harshness, and tight musical bass. It's amazing how much bass a speaker rated to 40 REAL hz can produce.They do need to be played fairly loud to "come on song" and they are studio mo... | |
| need more smoothness Linn gear is smooth??? Give me a break. Talk about bright and painful, IMHO. So sure, blame it on B&W.Cellorover, B&W tweeter's resonance is more like 25kHz, not 20. Monitor Audio IS around 19-20kHz.Treat the room, aim the speakers more st... | |
| under $300 bookshelfs: does excitement exist? B&W 600 series 3 is around $300 with dealer discount. Kevlar is a lighter, faster better driver than the 303's carbon fiber. But it depends or listening preference I suppose.I like www.creativesound.ca elf 1.5's for $125/pair. Different but in... | |
| Home audio drivers vs. car audio drivers Sean, I can't figure it out. You say Dan Wiggins can't use a vented box that can outperform a sealed box but he shows how he can. Bobby is lowering bass below tuned freq. which you say increases distortion and he says he found a way around that.So... | |
| Musical A3.2 pre& or A308 integrated? 308 has more bass and said to be more tube-like. 3.2 is probably more accurate to the source.It comes down to preference. | |
| Home audio drivers vs. car audio drivers Slappy, www.audioxpress.com did a DIY for Infinity 462.5CFP and Boston Acoustics FX5 car coax. Article was 5/03 and shows freq. responses. They modded the Infinity and improved sound to the best of the lot. | |
