| What makes an expensive speaker expensive Hi Pete, You make some good points which I accept as opinion but not fact. I don't equate micro detail with emotion as you do. Emotion can be elicited by a variety of sonic or musical parameters. For example in my case it's triggered by authenti... | |
| What makes an expensive speaker expensive Good discussion here and insightful comments from Tim. I don’t get the sense that anyone is "married" to paper cones at all. Rather they simply identify the natural tonality and sound quality that they can provide. Carbon Fiber, ceramic, aluminum,... | |

| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Hello David,You are privileged to be able to alternative between the two SET amplifiers, no doubt that both presentations are very enjoyable. I firmly believe that the individual 300b tube preference varies depending on the particular amplifier in... | |

| Redbook Keeps Surprising Georgre,It could be system /component dependent or maybe just my imagination 😊. But it does seem that playing the actual CD does sound a bit more natural with more a sense of ease. Just a personal observation of mine. Charles, | |
