| Bob Carver Integrated Amp In Tampa Carver had brochures of a new Carver Crimson 2180i Tube Amp--not clunky looking at all, but slightly retro. Don't be so sure about heat. For the 75wpc Crimson 275 with Carver's tube management system you can put your hands on top of the t... | |
| All the brands I don't like... How nice: a rare endorsement of Bose. | |
| Life is too short to buy someone else's favorite stereo gear You left off the rest of it "...unless it is also your favorite and you can buy it from someone for half the retail price." | |
| Eh hem!...Subwoofers... What do ya know? A very interesting, and appealing discussion. I've never heard a subwoofer swarm demo--perhaps a demo in Florida in February (he said, hopefully)? Two questions please:1) From what I read here, it seems like multiple in-wall subwoofers would be a... | |
| Blown away with 2 speakers hifi sound! Driving naked is normal in Santa Monica. | |
| Mattresses, not stereos is where the money is Innersprings=analog. So satisfying. | |
| Linkwitz Lab Loundpeaker baffle Silly boy. The midrange drivers in the Orions--where it matters--is mounted to a rear support and held in place by the speaker's magnet. The driver doesn't touch the front baffle. | |
| Is it safe to buy from Audiogon sellers? I've bought and sold on Audiogon, but not ebay or elsewhere. I've offered fair prices when selling and received good quality gear at fair prices when buying. I bought from dealer/resellers twice, and I was treated fairly once. I like Audiogon, and... | |
| Interconnects and Speaker Cable, What in your history hit your pleasure button? LFD ribbon speaker cables are obviously better with LFD IntAmps than any other speaker cables I've tried. Likewise, LFD ribbons with Pass Amps. Not theory;reality. Other than that, I know nothing. So for your stuff, I'm happy if you're happy. | |
| High value, giant killer speakers? Siegfried Linkwitz was a giant; it would take the price of a new car to best his Orion speaker system. Behold the dominating sound stage, my audio brothers! | |
| CD"S I'm very happy with CDs, and there are some supportive, useful comments here about them. My OPPO BDP-205 has got it all at a great price. They are still occasionally available if you search persistently. | |
| what is it in audio that you dislike most? Tech snobsBSInadequate bass, and bass bloomExtreme tweeters (mostly horns) assaulting my bony labyrinth...but so far I have experienced only good and happy personal interchanges with buyers and sellers on Audiogon! | |
| Good Inexpensive Amp for Back Yard Speakers I'm happy to pass on a recommendation I got a few months ago on this board--Optoma Nuforce STA200. Dual mono 70wpc, precise and clean. Original price was $1,250 and a bargain. I bought new discounted at $450, and lately marked down again to $429. ... | |
| What are important features in a listening chair I've got a shock-absorbing high-speed chair from a SEAL attack boat with a 15" Eminence driver attached under the seat. Bass you can truly feel, but hard on the prostate. | |
| Speaker advice for listening to Blues music Klipsch Heresy--good fun for rock and blues. But for your specific complaints, best to avoid horn tweeters.Try ribbon tweeters, like Legacy, Raidho, Quad Z3/Z4. |
