| MIT Oracle AC1 input... The AC 1 and AC 2 are extremely well engineered products that do what they claim to do without screwing around with the components sound. They are the best way to clean up your AC and enhance the performance of your components without the often de... | |
| The Great Speaker Quest The Totem Forest is special...it's about the easiest one to drive and has a very full, warmish tone compared to the others. | |
| Wilson's new speaker the Sasha is coming. I don't think my dealer will give me the numbers, but he recently dropped Wilson and picked up Magico. Wilson went across the street to the mid fi store...makes you wonder. | |
| Wilson's new speaker the Sasha is coming. Wilson is responding to the Magico V3's price point and success. Leveraging? What a joke that is...and the Alexandria will be selling for $110K instead of $145K next month. | |
| Wilson's new speaker the Sasha is coming. I can understand the fascination with having a new toy, but for anyone who knows the sound of music, I'm afraid it 'aint coming out of a box. | |
| Wilson's new speaker the Sasha is coming. I must perhaps apologize for my enthusiasm, but to the contrary of what some may have experienced with a speaker such as my MG3.6R's, I have found them to be thee easiest speaker to enjoy! It may be with more than just a modicum of luck that I am ... | |
| Wilson's new speaker the Sasha is coming. I've owned many of the pretty boxes mentioned here and quite a few others. At the end of the day, trying to get the impossible out of a box design is lunacy. The medium is inherently flawed in contrast to how music is dispersed in real space/time.... | |
| Review: Mye Sound speaker stands Magnepan- MG-20 Tweak Thanks for the info:O) | |
| How do you determine how much to spend on speakers That's easy, $5K for a pair of Maggie 3.6R's. Save yourself a lifetime of desperate searching and ungodly amounts of money like myself and get a pair today...you will be home when you listen. If you know music, there is no other speaker for you:O ) | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Magnepan MG 3.6R's (09 edition with new crossovers). If you truly know music, there is no other speaker for you. They will unleash your inner audiophile like no other and let the music flow over you like the Holy waters from the audio God's:O ) | |
| Review: Mye Sound speaker stands Magnepan- MG-20 Tweak The stock MG 3.6R's are amazing compared to ANY box speaker. The latest version has a new crossover that mounts parallel to the panel which creates a more stable situation...it is also larger (Hmmm, an upgrade perhaps?). My new pair does sound a b... | |
| Review: Sony SCD-XA5400ES CD Player Oh yeah, almost forgot to mention, I owned a Meridian G08 and thought it to be uniquely one of the most a-musical players I have owned. Cold, sharp and grey sounding. | |
| Review: Sony SCD-XA5400ES CD Player Kal is correct...I didn't say it would be easy to find one! The US outlets seem to get orders filled within 2 weeks. | |
| Review: Sony SCD-XA5400ES CD Player This player is not discontinued as far as I know...it just came out last fall to replace the XA9000ES. As I've said, I have owned most of the top shelf offerings and the Sony puts you squarely in the ballpark with the others. The price to performa... | |
| Krell Power Consumption I subsequently went to ARC stuff and sold that as well. Decided to drop out of the super high end club for awhile after the recent dissapointments, although I must say that the so called cheapo integrated has been one of my most beloved components... |
