| Raise your acoustic panels or die DOH! | |
| moving from house to an apartment.. goodbye 802D's Jeez! Just don't turn them up! | |
| Warning: China-Hifi-Audio.com Having ordered from China before (Not Audio), I am astounded that the $595 shipping charge did not seem excessive or bogus. | |
| Are these exceptionally well recorded, or what? The longer we listen to our system, the more we ignore the bad sounds and appreciate the good! | |
| Is the appeal to euphonic distortion learned? I hope I am remembering the proper name, but as I recall, Jame Parker of Audio Research has been said to intentionally add second harmonics his amps. Also, the original Sequerra Model 1 tuner was said to have such, which made it sound very sweet ... | |
| Jazz listening: Is it about the music? Or is it about the sound? I am the opposite, but learned about rock from my XM radio display. Yes, I know, you have better sources. So do I, but the jazz selection is awesome, and the info, especially for jazz, is educational. The Polk costs about $50.00 on eBay, and se... | |
| Ready, set, comment! Speaker cables don’t make a difference? Many of us have heard a difference. Too many pretend they do. Some do not. Some refuse to. Some can't. Some don't give a rat's patooey. Where is spell check when you really need it? | |
| How loud are you typically listening? Not always, but often, just before the clipping LED's come on. | |
| I just bought a Steinway which sounds like a banjo. Funny you should mention pianos. A pal gave me his speakers because the internal sub amp quit working. I heard them a lot at his house, especially on acoustic piano, largely on what sounds like a (Oscar Peterson's) Steinway and whatever Gene Harr... | |
| Amplifier knobs...where to "set" on the clock? It depends on which is quieter, your amp or preamp. At least check the specs. I would bet it is the amp. | |
| Anyone have the Answer? I'll stick to my 4 26,000 mf filter caps per channel, per 100 watts times six (3 amps). | |
| Is It Time To Sell My Vinyl Rig? Well, brain tumor removal (or saving your sight, etc.) or turntable. What a dilemma! But! How much actual surgery can selling an old Thorens really pay for? Maybe a tooth extraction? | |
| members and their systems millercarbon I am so happy for you, that you can spend time with perfectly normal people with normal incomes, who go to their #$%^^& Ferrari club meetings. | |
| VINYL SUCKS! I have a great LP collection (and CD's) and really enjoy it. It is a shame you missed out on so much great music. The problem with streaming is the lack of humans choosing the music. You have a computer that gives you an algorithm based on what... | |
| Why would anyone want class AB amp when class A always sounds better ? Why would anyone prefer anything besides Audio Research monoblock tube amps, when they are so awesome? For only $70,000, plus a 5 ton A/C unit to cool it, you could begin building a truly great system. All you need, besides the above, is a $10,0... |
