| Putting together first system... clueless. Baliacta-The Magnepan SMG/MMG have been the budget reference standard for 25+ years. I have not heard any of the Tekton models or the Zu Omen but the MMG will hold it's own against any of the speakers you mentioned. If your room will accommodate t... | |
| Power Cables diminishing returns It's possible a $1000 power cord could be 3x better then a $500 pc. It all depends on your system's synergy. On your system page you have several different pc's, have you rotated the cords on your electronics/conditioner? This could end up being a... | |
| Where Coming Back Geoffkait-Your right there are less "brick and mortar" stores now then in the late 80's, and I do agree home theater created a small setback for 2/channel HEA. As stated before the 90's was a decade of refinement and new discoveries. I disagree th... | |
| Where Coming Back Geoffkait-The Late 80's were the beginning of home theater systems for the masses not the death of hi-end-audio. HEA rebounded in the 90's with better cd playback and the acceptance(of some) with the importance of cables, vibration control and eve... | |
| ATC SCM vs Dynaudio Excite I have heard both the Excite X12 and the ATC SCM 11. The ATC crushes the Dynaudio if you care what is on the recording. | |
| Remember the year and first vynil you ever bought? Was in the summer of '74 when I bought "Rock The Boat"-Hues Corporation. I earned $1 by washing my grandfathers dark green 1970 Duster. Still recall going to the 7-Grand shopping mall with my grandparents and having a very difficult time picking o... | |
| worse entertainer or performer of all time?? Tubegroover-Many of us on Agon agree that Whitney Houston's music sucked! Her younger voice was techincally fine but IMO lacked heart and emotion, almost like she was singing in a drug induced coma. Screaming r&b divas are not my favorite genr... | |
| worse entertainer or performer of all time?? Jay Z-The wool he is pulling over his fans eyes must be a very thick gauge! | |
| Need Help finding Speakers Budget 20,000 US Bo1972-Great Post!-Dragon vibe-Hope the Legacy speakers meet your needs. | |
| suggest an under $2000 amp to match 4ohm speakers Paanders-Many of us know and have heard the synergy between Primare and Vienna Acoustics. I would strongly consider the I31 intergrated amp, depending on condition expect to pay $1200-$1500. I have heard Prima Luna with very good results on VA spe... | |
| Which amp for my Renaissance 90s? My hunch is a conrad-johnson Premier 350. Several years ago I heard a c-j 350 driving an Infinity IRS Omega. This pairing was reference level. I don't remember the cables or digital source but i'm sure the c-j was very influential. Both the IRS Om... | |
| Best rock bass player Wc65mustang-I was waiting for the correct answer! Gary Thain and Greg Ridley deserve recognition. | |
| Integrated amp for Wilson Audio Cub 2's I heard the Wilson Cub 2's probably about 10 years ago. They were being driven by Ayre electronics and the source was a flagship Sony cdp. To this day the Cub 2 remains one of the fastest box speaker i've heard. It does have a "pro monitor" sound ... | |
| Anthonyn Cordesman on Edward Snowden I'll skip the politics! Cordesman put Adcom on the map with his poetic waxing. I always wondered if he was compensated by Adcom or couldn't hear above 5khz(lol)? To my ears David Hafler amps were the best sounding budget amps from that time period... | |
| Great Overall Career Arc -- Group/Solo Was Janis Joplin ever a true solo performer(Kozmic/Full Tilt)? Beyonce and Adam Levine(yikes)! |
