| Dynaudio Special 40's vs Wharfedale Super Lintons Stretch your budget or try to get the Wharfedale Elysian (2 or 4) used, instead of wharf super Linton or the Dynaudio....especially since you seem to be getting a pair of Exposure monos. Elysian has the "high end" sound without the high end price... | |
| Anybody having trouble getting near-your-asking-price for used gear ? (Plz. no hype) Yup, yup, if there only was a ignore button, you would have landed in the 'ignore the wacko' pile a long time ago. | |
| Anybody having trouble getting near-your-asking-price for used gear ? (Plz. no hype) Wonder if butter dude lied on his asylum/refugee application or somethin..One has to wonder otherwise why there is such constant buttery incessant paranoia on every thread that Donnie might deport his hiny back to wonderland....bwahahahaha (Polit... | |
| Why Energize the Whole Room/Virtual Reality Audio? I understood the premise alright....It appears you are a bit confused about what would suffice for a practical solution. The closest practical thing outside of 360 reality headphones (sony), not granpa's cans/headphones would be something like t... | |
| Bookshelf speaker pairing with subwoofer @m20j201 Here is the completed speaker for a higher cost, if you don't want to mess around with a kit. https://gr-research.com/product/nx-studio-pair/ | |
| Why Energize the Whole Room/Virtual Reality Audio? Strange post....You can’t sit inches away from regular speakers with multiple drivers because drivers need some distance to sum. At typical farfield distances, 2 speakers/stereo is largely inadequate for providing a fully enveloping 3D soundfield... | |
| Anybody having trouble getting near-your-asking-price for used gear ? (Plz. no hype) During some exploratory years, I sold/rotated more 'higher end' items to dudes outside of core audiophilia...business guys, padded musicians, etc, who know nothing about the nerdy side of gear...depends on how connected you are, i suppose (how muc... | |
| Anybody having trouble getting near-your-asking-price for used gear ? (Plz. no hype) Oh, you'll be surprised...there are enough dudes who take out loans or whatever to buy things....he justifies it as financing a truck, a raptor or whatever else. I've even refused to sell something to a dude or two in the past when i figured out ... | |
| Anybody having trouble getting near-your-asking-price for used gear ? (Plz. no hype) Stuff with a msrp of 10k or under, more buyers...even 60 to 70 % of msrp can probably be considered a good deal for the used goods shopper. (frankly, there’s not enough of a margin built-in on many items) Stuff with a msrp of 50k or above (enormo... | |
| Has it all been worth it? There is no single best sound, for which you have to keep selling and buying to the top. It doesn’t exist. This is maybe the biggest audiophile trap, that gets sped up by the sales guys. Fact of the matter is, there are many different types of go... | |
| Best $10-15K bookshelf speaker? @tomic601 imo, the e1tx floorstander is the sweet spot for tad w.r.t bang 4 buck. I had the original reference og from Andrew in the past for quite a while, but, sold it to finance other things. If you put some effort into incorporating subs with ... | |
| Best $10-15K bookshelf speaker? I have a ns5000 too. Yamaha has well moved on from beryllium. All their current audiophile speakers are zylon (their non-toxic in-house developed stuff). Beryllium lovers may have to go to other "high end" names for a healthy whiff of Beryllium. ... | |
| Best $10-15K bookshelf speaker? Interesting fact that Yamaha was the godfather of beryllium tooling, driver dev/fab way back in the early 70s, but, apparently they are not "high end" enough for the ’elusive’ audiophile. All these "high end" names have been leeching with it since... | |
| Svs sb17-ultra for music Absolutely not a joke.. It was designed for music (and movies too)... I currently have a pair...very different design ethos, gets down below 20 hz, sounds nothing like the crap ported subs you may have heard. On the same note, it is not your regu... | |
| Does USB cable length make a diference? Separates Separates Separates Every power supply, board, capacitor, knobs, etc in its own box. Your streamer should be made of 50 different boxes strung together with audiophily wire. When you have 500 different boxes to play a song, you will get... |
