| The Real Reason Why Music Is Getting Worse!! Jerry, just remember, it's not a lie if you believe it. You can fill n the blanks. Cheers | |
| Is everything unstable until….. At least more solid than my carpet. Always been a believer in quality stands, starting with Target stands decades ago. Not really valid now, but then a thing. Spoke with Kurt at Echo Audio years ago, he related a story of how an audio stand had... | |
| The Real Reason Why Music Is Getting Worse!! While the gravitational pull here is music, looking beyond that subject, the video is easily applied to ALL marketing. The generification of food, clothing, cars and tract housing speaks to data smoothing in search of replicable product that maxi... | |
| A special loudspeaker - Revival Audio Atalante 5 Proudly engineered and manufactured in France, the award-winning ATALANTE 3 is meticulously designed from the ground up. This is directly from their website, so either it's true or they are lying to the world in a very public way. One can only a... | |
| Proton 300 "The Radio" question yogiboy probably has best idea. I owned a couple of these over decades, but never used the preamp out. I think you mean phono preamp, so a TT is involved. Right? This is a very underestimated piece. With correct source, slave unit (301 speak... | |
| Looking for my End Game Speaker ATC sealed box SCM 20 large monitor. Bring your stable current and lots of it. Highly accurate delicious bass. Not lots of it but very good. Magical midrange and highs with the 'S' Spec tweeter. All drivers ATC designed and made in house. Cu... | |
| The Disappearing Act All starts with recording engineers who understand microphones, positioning of players and their mics, room acoustics and a myriad of other contributory elements. Each step contributes and the masters understand that. Rudy Van Gelder studios had... | |
| ATC SCM40A speakers admranger I do not know your particular amp, but I do know ATC transducers. They can be quite demanding and particular, wringing the life out of respectable power. I’ve a pair of SCM 20s run by a Luxman 509X and they need all of it. 125 wpc ... | |
| Retirement integrated amp for a “fiscal conservative” Yes, we'll actually nod to the Celts of GB, but appreciate the pickup. Radiology contracts near Boston allowed several visits....by "T" and pedestrian. Driving amongst "Mass-holes" is a death wish. Enjoyed my time touristing. | |
| Retirement integrated amp for a “fiscal conservative” Sugden, Luxman or Accuphase. Many come around to that conclusion. I've owned, appreciated and enjoyed immensely several high end tubed components over decades. All American handmade; Manley, VTL, De Havilland. In the end I tired of the tube c... | |
| Is the microwave the perfect model for audio marketting? Summation is that design engineers are mostly daft. They solve problems exclusionary of end user. It made sense to the design team, so good enough. Beta testing is expensive/time consuming and therefore summarily shunned. Take 100 end users, ex... | |
| CD player recommendation with good built in dac under 1k new or used? please and thanks Used Rega Apollo R gets it done. Better transport than player, but as a player solid enough. Have owned several of them with no problems. Currently run one through a Mojo Audio Mystiqué 3, Luxman 509X and ATC SCM 20 monitors and it's a really g... | |
| Downsizing from tower to bookshelf jallan +1 I’ve owned/owned 4 different models of ATC transducers to include SCM 7s and SCM 20s. I will encourage well engineered high current amplification. Seems too often users see a smaller transducer and apply a smaller amp. Wrong! These ar... | |

| ATC SCM40A speakers Ran ATC SCM 40A for 3 years, then gifted them to a friend. They are fabulous and reveal each improvement made in front of and to them (Gaia ll footers). They provide immediacy of attack, space around vocals and instruments, are dynamic and soun... |
