| KEF R3 META or Dynaudio Special 40? Get these Yamaha HS8 active monitors ($800/pair new, also found in white, grey) that have a lot of sparkle, clarity, resolution etc.. the other 2 options you were looking at are not very good at all. https://shop.usa.yamaha.com/en/p/pro-audio/stu... | |
| $3500 floor standing speakers used. What would be your choice ? Tektons (models with the array) have a unique type of sound, in some ways a hybrid of a horn and concentric driver type of sound perhaps....deserves to be in it’s own pocket like magnepans or electrostats or whatever. For the guy who clicks with ... | |
| This Might Not Exist, Any reasonably priced, smaller speakers with 100db Sensitivity? This may be another option that’s not too big, probably overpriced a bit (gotta pay NYC rent, unlike the Tekton dudes who are set up in a farm middle of nowhere Utah) https://ojas.nyc/collections/frontpage/products/klipsch-x-ojas-ko-1 | |
| Stereo Times review on the Tekton Design Encore Monitor Maybe some of the master-ers using Adam audio crap should set these up in mid-field... might eventually get a good recording out of some of these guys. | |
| The Audio Science Review (ASR) approach to reviewing wines. I’d ask the clown car that does freq domain snapshots to measure my violins or my piano....bet that would go well/swell... "Bad violin", said the dingus dumbernicus... | |
| The Audio Science Review (ASR) approach to reviewing wines. Here’s a very nice Tom Martin review of the Perlisten speaker. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=leL1vXcKhZw Think we all know how Perlisten speakers tend to measure, pretty freaking good. But, i’d like for a reviewer to be articulate the sound o... | |
| Stereo Times review on the Tekton Design Encore Monitor Where's the link dude? | |
| Do you agree with John Atkinson (and me)? @bdp24 Get him a pair of Yamaha HS8 powered monitors and a Yamaha WXC-50 (streamer+dac+preamp). That should do the trick. (A friend in need is a friend indeed.) I subsequently visited him in San Jose, and saw that he listens to music through h... | |
| The Audio Science Review (ASR) approach to reviewing wines. Stereophile does measurements. You can look at it and also see what J.Atkinson says about the sound. You can look at the asr guy’s measurements (graphs only) as well. But, scroll over anything else he squeals about because he has two lumps of tur... | |
| Tampa Audio Expo 2025 Did it sound "magnificent" or only "magnificent for the price"? (Gotta word it right... in case you heard a million dollar speaker tomorrow perhaps, ahem) Clarysis Audio Atrium $750,000. If you have a ballroom and an unlimited budget, they are ... | |
| The best opening act you've ever seen & heard? Mid 2000s...Joe Satriani opened for Deep Purple..made Deep Purple look a lil weak thereafter. | |
| Who's winning? The 20k atmos guys might have blown the daylights out of the 500 dollar soundbar guys or the 30k speaker (60k, 80k whatever stereo) guys, it appears....Whenever i talk to those guys on the facebook groups, they seem very satisfied, might be the re... | |
| What's the story with Borresen speakers ? The pricing on higher end models of Borresen is perhaps inspired by Daryl Willy and Alon Wolf (none of these guys have ever been worth the price), but...atleast they look better/have higher WAF than Daryl and Alon’s stuff. I don’t know who is re... | |
| I feel for you There is such a thing called standing on the shoulders of giants to prevent unnecessary work for yourself. There are some giants who apparently don't have a name that's "audiophile enough" though they know everything there is to know about sound (... | |
| I feel for you EECS PhD, babysat the engineering hordes all through a past life in tech corporations...before I got real tired of corpo politics and went my own way/started my own business. Perhaps a higher priority area for the tinkerers to expend energy is...... |
