| ??? What Is Your Favorite Speaker Finish ??? @freediver Given my dedicated audio room has no windows by design, and the only thing I use it for is music, and I always listen with very little lighting, your point is moot in my case. The "ugly" finish is actually very pleasant and functiona... | |
| ??? What Is Your Favorite Speaker Finish ??? As I stated in my prior post, I love a beautiful wood finish especially when the speaker is a part of your home decor. However, in my dedicated audio room, the matt black finish on my main speakers and subs is ideal for me. In a dimly lit room ... | |
| TU-8600S Congrats on your new build! Let us know your thoughts after it has settled into your system. Lots of helpful info in your posts. | |
| Does other Audiogon members' opinion carry any weight for you ? If there is a point to this thread, perhaps it is a barometer of the current state of this forum. Sadly, since I have been a member, things have paralleled society as a whole and deteriorated. The true gems on this site are becoming a rare fin... | |
| ??? What Is Your Favorite Speaker Finish ??? Louis of Omega Speakers did a beautiful job on a custom pair of speakers in African Padauk. The speakers match the solid Padauk cabinet on my Erhard Ray SET amp. This wood darkens over time and becomes very rich and even more stunning. I apprec... | |
| Wanting to upgrade my speakers I will lend further support for the Super Linton. I just placed this speaker in my second system one week ago. In a word, a fantastic speaker. The retro design with beautiful veneers and the matching stands are just gorgeous. The sound, howeve... | |
| Happy Easter to all that celebrate! Same to you and yours yogi. | |
| Chesky Audio LC1 bookshelf speakers - a sonic bargain! Interesting. While this may be a great speaker, the finishes/colors offered will significantly limit sales. | |
| I bought 4 subwoofers and I'm absolutely not doing a DBA! Hah! @erik_squires Fascinating project. Many questions though. I assume your current speaker position lends itself to relatively flat uncorrected response--true? We want details! What drivers are in your monitors/subwoofers? Who is building thos... | |
| Von Schweikert Outstanding customer support I remember years ago when I owned a pair of VR-33's, I spoke to Albert a couple of times on the phone about some questions I had. He was a true gentleman, very cordial. Glad that the other members of his team have followed in his footsteps. | |
| Did I Expect too much? It you opened up your speakers and checked out the crossovers, 97% of us would probably find electrolytic caps, sandcast resistors. At best, you might find a generic polypropylene cap on the tweeter. It's called maximizing profit margin. You wa... | |
| Repair for speaker cabinet Maybe I missed this but I would suggest bondo or similar epoxy wood filler, followed by meticulous sanding, then wet sanding, then paint. I would think an suto body repair shop could do all or part of this for you. (you were planning on having t... | |
| Western Electric 300B Tube Problems Bad enough to hear about the WE tube issue. But even worse yet the cost to repair your amp---you can't be serious. Did they replace anything else? If not, that is highway robbery. Not sure who did the repair, but they need be avoided like the pl... | |
| I'm curious. What is your "normal" listening volume? pinwa, you hit exactly on what I have noted. Bought an meter off of amazon and was amazed at ambient noise levels very similar to what you noted. | |
| Rel Carbon Special hook up question As above. This was covered in a recent thread. |
