| What's the greatest bargain in SET these days? Sebrof summed it up well, it just depends on what you like (simple statement but true). My speakers are 94 db/14 ohms so pretty close to your speaker's sensitivity. I've used three amplifiers with them. 40 watt el34 push pull (PP), 100 W ultraline... | |
| Zu OMEN - hmm Hi Cbozdog,After 3 years of ownership and multiple amplifiers, you still aren't satisfied with your speakers.The Spatial Hologram may be the logical next step.Good Luck,Charles, | |
| How loud is loud? Al,I've observed that as the system and recording quality improves it "expands" the usable listening spectrum. You are able to listen at higher levels comfortably, but lower volume listening is much improved as well. The urge to want to crank it u... | |
| How loud is loud? Hi Mulveling,Ok, guilty as charged, you're right it is a simple topic regarding loudness and nothing more. I do understand Bombaywalla's post in the technical sense as he presented it. I have no intention to muddy the waters and introduce chaos.Th... | |
| How loud is loud? Hello everyone,I do get Bombaywalla's point, distance from the speaker is a factor and a relevant variable. If you sit 5 feet from your speakers vs say 12 feet, the SPL in db will change as a result of the distance. That's all he is pointing out. | |
| Your most disappointing purchase or audition? Hi Tortilladc,Did you read the follow up replies to Tubes108 last post? There was a change in sentiment toward him and he was given the benefit of doubt. | |
| Is DSD download already an extinct format? Mitch4t, Tomcy6 and Brownsfan offer very well reasoned reponses to Bigamp's comment. I also feel that it's up to the record companies to present the new formats in a manner that appeals to the buying public. This means prices that the consumer fin... | |

| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Hi Tbg,To be clear, is it your opinion that the HFC power cables offer more improvement and value to a system vs their IC and SC if one had to pick and choose?Thanks, | |
| Your most disappointing purchase or audition? Hi John,I just expect that on an open forum disagreements can be managed and handled without someone's feelings being hurt.Anyway I've said my piece and will leave it there. Brownsfan is more than capable of responding if he sees fit{and he may no... | |
| Your most disappointing purchase or audition? Hi John,Could you look t my system and based on its make up and then determine my financial stability or level of discretionary income? Would you say that I could reach similar conclusions judging your system?One could have an expensive system and... | |
| Your most disappointing purchase or audition? Melbguy1, To further contrast you and Brownsfan, I doubt that he'll go off and complain to this site's moderators. If he chooses to, he'll respond to your comments regarding him in a mature and appropriate fashion. By the way, why the assumption(b... | |
| Your most disappointing purchase or audition? Melbguy1,How you can look at a perfect stranger's audio system and even remotely extrapolate their personal financial capabilities is beyond me. In my opinion this isn't just an inaccurate and misguided approach, it's incredibly rude and arrogantl... | |
| Is high-end audio dying, if not dead already??? I don't know if conditions have ever been more favorable for those interested in High End audio. Choices are plentiful at all the various price points. In terms of components there's simply a smorgasbord. Amps, lower, medium, high, or ultra high p... | |
| Your most disappointing purchase or audition? Hi Tubes108,First of all I don't doubt your individual experience with the AtamaSphere components and said so in an earlier post. I was not questioning your credibility, only suggesting that complaints about those products are rare in regards to r... |
