| New Dire Straits 45RPM reissues from Mobile Fidelity Listened to Communique tonight...it is everything that everyone is saying. Super album with excellent SQ. The Dire Straits MFSL's are a no brainer for anyone that likes this band. | |
| MOBILE FIDELITY ONE STEP VINYL Only concern i have with the MFSL One Steps is that MoFi seem to be picking titles that appeal to the masses vs. are great enough recordings ( SQ wise) in the first place that they deserve the 'One Step' process.For example, the 'One Step' of BOTW... | |
| Tell us about your KT150 experience I have stated before that it it is not usually wise to simply roll in KT150 tubes into any tube amp. If the amp was not designed from the start to utilize the new KT150's...damage to the transformer can result! The KT150 needs a lot higher voltage... | |
| Tell us about your KT150 experience The amps that I have heard that utilize KT120's have not been in my system, so very hard to say...I would be interested in this answer as well from someone who has had the two types in their system. | |
| Wilson's Chronosonic XVX loudspeaker over 3/4 of a million US dollars @erik_squires +1My question was meant to be aimed at why it took so very long for Dave W to come to the realization that the old tweeter was such a weak part of his design. IOW, what precipitated the change ( for the better) after all those years? | |
| Wilson's Chronosonic XVX loudspeaker over 3/4 of a million US dollars One thing that does strike me as a little strange when it comes to Wilsons...is why it took so very long for Dave W to hear how bad the long utilized Focal Titanium dome was in all of his older designs. Once he changed to the current silk dome, I ... | |
| Where in the US to send my Linn Sondek LP12. @masi61 The web is full of folks who advise that you try and set up your Linn yourself...its no big deal they claim. Yet in the very same post, they usually state that they moved on from the LP12, as it just wasn't that great sounding a table...... | |
| Wilson's Chronosonic XVX loudspeaker over 3/4 of a million US dollars Wilson markets a number of different speakers at different price points..albeit nothing in the hundreds of dollars ( like some of you would like, lol!) Magnepan has their little LRS speaker at a price point that is at that price...and its a real w... | |
| Wilson's Chronosonic XVX loudspeaker over 3/4 of a million US dollars @mikelavigne Let's put it this way, at the forum in question, i had had enough of the non- level playing field that grew there over time. It was clear that the owners had an agenda...and that anyone who was not towing the line with their expectat... | |
| Wilson's Chronosonic XVX loudspeaker over 3/4 of a million US dollars @mikelavigne Thanks, I have no problem with you either, but you can also push buttons. Neither of us pushes buttons or has ability to push the envelope like the ‘guru’...and I know both of us wouldn’t get away with what he does on that site. Like ... | |
| Wilson's Chronosonic XVX loudspeaker over 3/4 of a million US dollars @mikelavigne I guess we will have to agree to disagree. The forum in question has some of the worst moderation of any I have ever been on. To that, there seems to be a person ( we both know who he is) that throws as much mud as he wishes...with ab... | |
| Wilson's Chronosonic XVX loudspeaker over 3/4 of a million US dollars @steakster What you stated applies to most of the audio forums these days. On another forum, frequented by horn speaker lovers, anyone who disagrees with their mantra and dares to have another opinion on horn speakers is summarily banned...on this... | |
| Lets talk dedicated lines @cleeds You bring up a good point...the typical convenience outlet is daisy chained to other outlets...some in different rooms. However, this is pretty easily checked, and in the instance that the daisy chain is only to one other outlet in the sam... | |
| Subwoofer or New Speaker I use two RELT5i’s in my small room, they can easily over power the room unless they are dialed in with a ton of effort and experimentation. They are excellent subs and augment the bottom end of my mains superbly, and they allow the speakers to so... | |
| Subwoofer high-level connection question Shouldn't be an issue. I use the same hook up protocol with my ss amp. Both the speaker cables and the high level sub cable are connected to the same posts. You could check with REL, as their customer service is excellent, but i see no problem. |
