| Is this a new trend? viridian has it. Besides, how many ONLY listen through their phone with earbuds and call it really awesome! EVERYTHING, and I do mean EVERYTHING is now a passive activity. If you are eating, watching sports on mute whilst streaming music in the... | |
| What are some quality bookshelf speakers that can actually be used on a bookshelf? Questionable that that speaker is outdated. What are you in search of? More dynamics? In an office setting? Perhaps more definition. Then better amplification and server. Your query somewhat ill-defined. You’ve the right speakers for expres... | |
| Who has gone fully active? What speakers and preamp did you end up with? Luxman C900u preamp, ATC 50 active floor standers. ATC SCA2 preamp underway which is Class A and fully discrete. We'll see. | |
| Seeking a Power Conditioner My research lead me here https://acousticfrontiers.com/products/environmental-potentials-ep-2050 Yes, I have one installed, but so far not tested by a strike. Best of luck. | |
| Vienna Acoustics 'The Music' Only to contuzzi's comments about a non-motivated company. I lived and worked in Austria some years and it is a socialist country through and through. Mostly not very innovative nor outward looking. I do not know Vienna Acoustics products. I j... | |

| Bose Chucks Mac Oh look, I found a filet mignon plate on my Dennys menu. Wrong product, wrong place, wrong demographic, what could go wrong? Shocking. It's truly amazing how mis-directed marketing can get involving supposedly smart people driving the bus and b... | |
| The Disappearing Act Truly a near mythical thing. Combination of so many elements not least of which is room acoustics. One of the better rooms I've ever experienced had a red brick wall floor to ceiling behind the speakers with no acoustical treatment in the room. ... | |
| Amp suggestion for Merlin TSM speakers Isn’t Will Vincent ’autospec’ on this forum? If he is still in the game I would start there. Never owned, but read lots of very positive reviews of his refurbished Dynaco 70 pieces. | |
| How many times can u visit a hifi store before it annoys the store if u plan on a purchase I always bring cookies for the crew....each time. Or something. It should be a bit social. The exchange meant to be enjoyed, not endured. I've even taken microbrew. But then, that's just me. Cheers | |
| Are Merlin TSM speakers buried with their owners? Merlin TSM BME with master Zoebel boxed for now. They are wonderful, but moved onto ATC active to move air like I wanted to.
