Wilson WATT sound alikes.
raider: you don't mention your budget or whether you're looking for new or used speakers. the ae-1's, of course, can be easily found on the used market. if you're searching for new alternatives, i suggest you look at the entry-level jm-labs line, ... 
RCA to XLR connection
husaskin: the least expensive way to solve your problem is to buy an appropriate pair of adapters (male or female). these are readily available from pro sound shops, where musicians buy their electronic gear. -kelly

What is the cause of my sibilance problem?
gallaine: you say that you thought you had solved your sibilance problem but then it returned. what did you do, or perceive that you had done, to "solve" your problem? you have a complex system comprised of many parts. each of those parts "reacts"... 
vibrapod residue
wirehead: sorry to confess. the rockport's no longer with me. guess what "they" say is true; you can't scam the devil. i'd already worked through three of the subordinate fallen angels to get up to a basis debut V vacuum. they all ratted on me whe... 
vibrapod residue
wirehead: good point, but remember charlie's a vet. he can sedate 'em. i can see it now in an ad for CAT: " natural air bearings and suspension/anesthesiologist supplied." -kelly 
Short Power Cable (ie, 3 to 6ft)
vtin: the rowland 8t is a good choice, tho i'd try to a/b one with the model 6's. (the battery makes the noise floor lower but is a pain in the patoot to deal with - newer models are ok altho older ones leaked.) BTW, the tara "air one" is not the ... 
vibrapod residue
charlie: i was woderin' if you'd ever tried your supply of cat's tongues in place of vibrapods. yeah, i understand it'd be tough to keep 'em in place, lying prone on their bellies, unless your component is heavy enuf. -kelly 
Mo Fi box sets

Short Power Cable (ie, 3 to 6ft)
vtin: ok, you can ignore part of my other post on your cdp query thread (should have read this one first). are your eclipses the "old" model or the updated "classic."? the latter are somewhat more revealing and have greater bass "punch." hence, yo... 
Wadia match Avalon Speakers
vtin: which avalons? which rowland? which wadia? will you use a pre? if so, what make/model? -kelly 
The worst sound system
someone discovered several years ago that homeless people, transients, and others given similarly pejorative labels, are repelled by classical music (i'm not kidding, here). thus, the downtown macdonalds locations in denver (where i live) pipe out... 
"gear-heads": OLD subwoofer help needed
sean: i know i've heard the RTR's somewhere in the distant past (yoda was one of my fraternity brothers; he was a senior when I pledged). just trying to power-up the memory banks or stumble upon the site you've not yet discovered. hang on. somebod... 
Misconceptions of Speakers
charlie: you, of all the folks on a'gon, ought to know what a dead horse looks like. you be kickin' the skeleton of a dead horse. no matter. we know how much you love your harbeths. as well you should. one of these fine days, you're gonna' find ti...
