| I have a blown driver and I'm not sure what to do $500 for a driver, it better be one of the best in the world. I can't believe paradigm is charging that much. It's not right for their customers and plain pretentious. | |
| Is anyone still using kimber 4pr? So I did it: I just bought a pair of 4pr terminated with bananas by Kimber.I thought I would never spend that kind of money on speaker cables, but given the vintage look of my simple gear (sometimes Wharfedale Denton, sometimes Totem Hawk, Marant... | |
| Mogami Speaker cable question Eddy, if you single wire, add 4s8 to your order for an additional $20 or so. I like it a lot better than 4s11.... More extended treble, clearer midrange, controlled bass. Less copper means a little more resistance, but it also means less inductance. | |
| Full range or subwoofer with bookshelfs for best bass at low to moderate volume? Bookshelf + sub.Because you will get the lowest hz, and because you can integrate it the way you want.With a full range, boosting low frequecies is more challenging and you miss the 20s | |
| Best speakers under $500? Fire away! Just love small 2-ways 5 1/2 inch when playing at low to moderate volume in mid-field, love large 3-way 10inch woofers when playing moderate to loud volume in mid- to far-field... I.e. Kind of miss my vandys 2ce thnking about it... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Yoyoma plays ennio morricone. If you do not have this cd, get it. Lots of emotion. | |
| Is anyone still using kimber 4pr? Electric measurements reveal that this cable could be the cable with the lowest inductance on the market, and with the least insertion loss when compared to equivalent 14awg cables.... in other world, is it the best cable in the world? | |
| Speaker recommendation for married couple Bose acoustimass 5. The little cubes are really cute, the "subwoofer" can be hidden, and that's what most wives want.Come on man, don't you want to sacrifice a little bit of sound quality so that your wife can have cute, unobtrusive, out of sight... | |
| Looking for an inexpensive Blue ray player The only thing that yamaha could do is improve the firmware to enable streaming tidal, spotify, netflix and the like. I don’t like having to stream with a roku. | |
| MMGs 1.7 without hesitation if you like mmgs.The comment made on 2*200w is real, but you could also get away with high current but lower wattage.I have had mmgs and mg12s.The mmgs woke up when i powered it with a $200 qsc pro amp 2*280w in 4ohms. It s... | |
| Speaker wire/cables opinion No worries. The cables running from crossover to speakers are so short that the added resistance to the speaker system as a whole is negligeable. If you would change these cables for less resistant ones, it would be like taling off 10lbs from yo... | |
| Albinoni's adagio Thanks Frank... I'll definetely look into john williams recordings. | |
| What speaker cable made a major difference in the sound quality of your speakers?? Canare 4s8. Balanced, dynamic, detailed, superb extension on both ends of the audio band. It lets your amp have the best grip on your speakers. Feels more powerful, punchier than cables twice as big. Details and harmonics come through like you ... | |
| Has anyone considered rebuying a speaker you once owned?? Yes, magnepan mmgs. | |
| Magnepans in a small room I have had the MG12s and MMGs in a small room 11x12 and it sounded really good. the room was treated with auralex 2in thick panels of all shapes, i would say 60% of all walls except ceiling were covered. I had one 12in diameter foam column on th... |
