| Why Do Cables Matter? Kinda sums it up. It’s all challenge based, not about helpful replies and guidance. Home audio and pro audio involve different camps and cables, with different designs and functions for different reasons. No debate there. @donavabdear ... "To... | |

| Review of Ascend Acoustics’ ELX Tower Speakers (released 2022) @jtcf Really nice review. I appreciate how thorough it was. +2, Agree, with focus and attention to maximizing the most out of it. A deserving review and result. Helpful to those considering these speakers. | |

| Describe the "new HiFi sound"? @mahgister wow, a very long description of the word "musical". Glad you are willing to tackle it more. Just for grins, I looked up the word in the dictionary. mu·si·cal adjective having a pleasant sound; melodious or tuneful. | |
| GoldenEar T66 vs. Legacy Focus XD Noting how the new version of the Legacy Focus XD has built-in power for the lower bass drivers. And, for the top-end the "Recommended Amplification:1 channel of 10 watts minimum for bi-amping upper range"... @audiotroy curious to know if have yo... | |
| Steve Guttenberg finally reviews the Eminent Technology LFT-8b loudspeaker. ...just hook 'em up to a nice amplifier and enjoy. | |
| Can I Trust The Music Room's Product Description? @mysteriousmrm "This time wasn’t as smooth, but they are working with me now to make things better." Would expect nothing less from Nick/TMR in any case. Having worked with Nick many times, I can guarantee you nothing misguided occurred her... | |
| Steve Guttenberg finally reviews the Eminent Technology LFT-8b loudspeaker. @hilde45 .."The key issue, it seems, is how loud people want to play them." --------------- Yep, desired volume levels, room size, and placement options matter in order to decide on the type of preferred amplification and whether these are the s... | |
| Will Vincent ST-70 Tube Amp @tooblue ."..but did not keep the amp long as it was not a good fit for my system." tooblue, if you can share more - was it lacking drive or dynamics in any way, when paired with less efficient speakers by chance? I ask because I have been ... | |
| Steve Guttenberg finally reviews the Eminent Technology LFT-8b loudspeaker. @aniwolfe Sensitivity is low but it does not require a high current amp. This speaker will not go lower than 7 ohms. So lower powered tube amps work fine if not used in a large room, needing concert listening levels. The LFT’s are especially sens... | |
| Steve Guttenberg finally reviews the Eminent Technology LFT-8b loudspeaker. A few years back while auditioning my current pair of Quicksilver Mono 120 amplifiers with KT150s installed, they were paired up with the smaller LFT-16a speakers. The room and speakers were set up nice and it was very enjoyable. At that moment I ... | |
| Siemens EL 34 @pehare have you tried GL KT77s in that amp by chance? I'm considering searching out a good very good designer/builder to commission and build a nice pair of monos for me in single-ended or parallel-single-ended (if I can find the right builder ... | |
| Why Do Cables Matter? @tonywinga ..I’m saying that generalizations about cables are inaccurate. Cables have progressed over the decades as much as any other stereo component, Agree, 100%. Yes they have. Along with other cable providers, i.e, i’ve been testing an... | |
| Why Do Cables Matter? @ieales ^^^ The above is utterly pointless. Any deltas are specific to that system and room and unlikely to translate to an entirely different system. There are plenty of expensive cables that are demonstrably designed to be ’tone controls’ and... |
