| Describe the "new HiFi sound"? @overthemoon "My interpretation is detail without coloration." That about sums it up in the fewest words. This is what the OP was about, initially. After a few decades of messing with caps and cables, and too many different amplifiers and t... | |
| Upgrade video of Ascend Acoustics Sierra Towers, V1 to ELX (easy and effective) Hats off to Ascend for offering such a nice upgrade option rather than coming out with another speaker version - only. A helpful and creative solution for their customers. | |
| Goodbye Everyone @elliottbnewcombjr some times I jump to other forums and disappear for a while when clusters of unhelpful posts by the same nimrods show up here. All The Best to You. | |
| Does anybody pay a pro to dial their system in? @thomastrouble I have owned two pairs of Totem Model One’s, and a pair of Totem Model One Signatures, both. Along with a good friend who owned both non and signature version too. Hundreds and hundreds of hours of listening to all. Between the four... | |
| Best monoblocks for Tannoy Legacy Arden @knighttodd "With the right music and recording they sound fantastic.". You may have answered your own question. Nice amps, nice Preamp. Decent tubes in stock form. Your PL EVO400s with EL34s are fairly smooth. EL34s, no? Some early Aerosm... | |
| Describe the "new HiFi sound"? Hey @kota1 I did not mean to confuse Was referring to the lower priced AN gear, and the idea of visiting a friendly dealer to just go for a fun demo listen. Did not mean to imply to go buy it. No, I don’t own any of the higher $ AN units. There ar... | |
| 2023 AXPONA Show Report @erik_squires I personally would like to hear back from those visiting the ScansSpeak room. They are demonstrating their Ellipticor midrange domes and I’d like to know if in fact it is the best midrange you’ve ever heard or not. Thank you. :)... | |
| un-becoming an audiophile @lanx0003 Be content with what you have and just listen to the music. Funny you mention this. Just replied on another thread about this same topic. Trying to get back to this. Kinda done searching for different quality recordings and trying... | |
| Describe the "new HiFi sound"? @decooney Whatever floats your boat, personally I couldn’t git ’er done with just 50% of the SQ I get from an immersive setup but whatever. Yep. Was born mid-60s, still listen to old rock bands 60s, 70s, and some 80s stuff. My former a... | |
| Describe the "new HiFi sound"? @kota1 no, had not before, and just checked it out, thanks. Nice. You enjoy it and that's what matters. As noted "on well recorded material". Gotcha. I listen to all sorts of different and inferior recordings, so that rules me out for immersive ... | |
| The problem with PLC @loomisjohnson So the purported clown idiot has generated 39 (now 40) responses to his nonsense. Which, I must admit, means he wins (LOSES) again. An act that fails. Failure to pass the test. | |
| The problem with PLC @kenjit They used to ridicule Einstein when he was alive. The world only found out he was a genius once hed died. Sad but true. Einstein did a lot more than talk and make unnecessary noise. Einstein actually invented and produced something ... | |
| Describe the "new HiFi sound"? @kota1 good experiment. Sounds like fun. Gotta ask. Have you ever heard a dedicated 2-channel HiFi system with no software involved, no pre-processing, non-oversampling (NOS) dedicated DAC, dedicated preamplifier, paired with dedicated class-A am... | |
| Yes, digital cables matter too @knownothing ...Second, some of these cables sounded dramatically different, and you get what you pay for. My son easily identified as his favorite cables the two most expensive cables tested in a blind listening. The amount of detail and nuance ... | |
| Describe the "new HiFi sound"? @kota1 @jjss49 Nice room, ...It looks like a recording studio with all the gear, multiple sets of speakers, etc. Nice pics! All kinds of super nice 2ch stereo gear, amps, and stereo speakers. Would love to have a nice dedicated stereo listen... |
