Paradigm Studio 100's: Version 2 vs. Version 3 How much more expensive are the v3's compared to the v2's? I have the v2's and while quite happy with them am always looking for a little more. Still sorry I didn't get the real wood sides on mine. Is the bass extension any lower than the v2's? | |
Music Hall Maverick? - Has Anyone Heard... Sorry people, the review I mentioned above was in Tellig's column in the recent Stereophile. My apologies. | |
modifications to anthem avm20 and mca 5 I have not had any mods done by them as yet though I'm want to get my SF Line 1 modded. I have bought some tubes from them and can tell you that dealing with Chris and all at Parts Connexion was a positive experience. I wonder if there is a mod fo... | |
Music Hall Maverick? - Has Anyone Heard... TAS did a review of the Maverick in their latest issue. Very favourable review. Two channel only on the SACD if memory serves but for myself it wouldn't be a problem. | |
A serious blow to Canadian audiophiles, must read Pragmatist,Canada does not subsidize speaker R&D. I don't know if they still do but the NRC at one time did allow speaker manufacturers the use of it's anechoic chamber. The larger companies have now built their own. The government may have ta... | |
Virtual Dynamics powercords How good? I had tried the Power 3 and Power 1's before moving up to a complete Audition cable package. In each case there was a noticable and definite improvement. I can't speak for the cables above the Audition but from what I've heard the Nites are excell... | |
Sonic Frontier, Joule or Counterpoint Tube Preamp? I have the Sonic Frontiers Line 1 which I bought off a fellow A'goner. I am very happy with it. Parts Connexion does mods and repairs of these units. I would stick with one of the Line series pre's if you are going with SF as I've heard tell that ... | |
taming studio 100's I have my sub set somewhere between 50 and 60Hz. The level is actually quite low as I don't care to be evicted at this time. I wouldn't set the sub any higher.Lneilb,Have you tried this with the 100's? I'd be interested to hear more about modding ... | |
taming studio 100's I have the 100's and no brightness. It could still be that they need more break in despite being demo units. The sound of the speakers responded well to aftermarket power cords on the electronics. My PW-2200 is in the corner behind the left speake... | |
Has audiophilia changed your music taste? I started off listening to my parent's LP's around 1967 or 68. They had a collection of classical, folk, and a few other things that don't twig the mind at the moment. Graduated to top 40 AM. Then in high school I went the prog rock route of some ... | |
Your Favorite, Most Outstanding Guitar Solo Robert Fripp on Brian Eno's "Baby's on Fire" off of the album "Here Come the Warm Jets". | |
Classical question Jim,I got the Moviola CD yesterday and as you said the song I was looking for was indeed there. Again thank you.Tom. | |
What Harmonic tech cables should I used for CD I have been considering the Pro Silway III's. I understand what you are saying about the source having the best cable first. I have heard too many reports that using a silver cable between the pre and the amp is supposed to provide a magic all it'... | |
Beating a dead horse - Pre with Pass-Thru I have the Sonic Frontiers Line 1. It has the SSP pass through but it is only single ended and not balanced. It works well but I get feedback from my receiver unless I lift the ground on my pre. The SSP works well for me and I wouldn't be without ... | |
What Harmonic tech cables should I used for CD I agree with Subaruguru that the VD's are probably shelving the top octave or so. They are pretty revealing other than that. I am unhappy with the top end I'm getting from them. However, on my buddy's system they didn't shelve the top octave at al... |
