| You pay for it and you get it... @james633 I high pass my dual REL subs. They are limited by the size of my listening room. Nonetheless, I do not believe that even in a much larger room, that they can bring scale like the big speakers. They can bring dynamic impact, but like Do... | |
| You pay for it and you get it... The room clearly has something to do with the ability of the speaker to portray scale, BUT I think even in the big room, a small speaker, like the Sabrina X that I referenced, cannot portray this. @millercarbon I hear what you say about the ten fo... | |
| You pay for it and you get it... @james633 Actually I don't believe that subs will get you there. I run dual subs and there is no way i can get this sense of scale. Not even close. My room is a fraction of the size of the demo hall ( that's almost as large as this room was) tha... | |
| Wilson Alexx V @carey1110 The tonal balance and sound stage was considerably larger and more precise than what i remember hearing from the XLF. I also was impressed with the overall scale produced, but this had to do with the enormous room which I heard the demo... | |
| Wilson Alexx V I had the pleasure of hearing the new Alexx V today. It is a speaker that anyone contemplating a speaker in its price range should definitely put on their short list. The Alexx V clearly needs a large room and plenty of space to breath, BUT if you... | |
| Mágico M6 vs Big Wilson speakers I had the pleasure of listening to a new pair of Wilson Alexx V’s today. They are definitely a speaker that one should put on their short list if the budget allows. Excellent at staging, bottom end reach and very resolving across the whole frequen... | |
| Wilson Audio Specialties Chronosonic XVX loudspeaker!! only $300,000.oo @edgewound They are not over priced so long as there is a market for them at that price, which apparently Wilson believes there is! The value proposition is another matter entirely....I think most folks these days would look at numerous products i... | |
| Wilson Audio Specialties Chronosonic XVX loudspeaker!! only $300,000.oo I read the review by MF of these in the current Stereophile mag. His comment about a few images appearing too tall is interesting. This problem is common in a number of larger/taller speakers that are on the market, along with their propensity to ... | |
| Cartridge without serial? @mammothguy54 I had heard the story about the Taylor Made clubs before. OTOH, it is interesting that there could be a company doing ’knock-off’s’ of cartridges like the Koetsu’s and the Benz’s. Albeit copying a cartridge could be a relatively easy... | |
| Cartridge without serial? @mammothguy54 You make an interring point. Is it possible that the cartridges in question, Zyx's, Benz's, Koetsu's and others that are being offered from these grey market vendors are in fact knock-off's? This would certainly explain the lack of ... | |
| Repair tech for Linn LP 12? Dan @ Blackbird audio in Santee is an authorized Linn LP12 repair tech. | |
| Cartridge without serial? @chakster LOL, If you think that ZYX or any high end manufacturer of cartridges, with the possible exception of Ortofon, is making and selling ’thousands’ of cartridges annually, i have a nice bridge I can sell you.... | |
| Cartridge without serial? @chakster where you get thousands of cartridges being manufactured of the same type and then being distributed is questionable. If a company like Zyx is selling and distributing thousands of cartridges into the world market at anytime, not only wo... | |
| Cartridge without serial? @chakster Are you suggesting that the manufacturer of a cartridge, who probably is not producing large numbers, will not know if some go missing? Or, that he has no way of knowing which distributor is going through a much larger supply than the o... | |
| Cartridge without serial? @chakster You explanation would apply for a very large conglomerate that sells very high volume. I highly doubt that any of the cartridge manufacturer's are in that league. Surely they must know all of their distributor's and exactly what produc... |
