| Choral Music Suggestions Excellent guys--thanks! Please keep them coming! | |
| improving bass on large floorstanders.... Matching speaker bass output to room size and positioning of the speakers within the room boundaries should be your first priorities. Once optimized you can move to room treatments if warranted. Changing cables should be at the bottom of your "to ... | |
| Good bass test tracks on vinyl Morph the Cat for sure. Very deep and well recorded bass line. | |
| Anyone tried Soundsmith VPI Zephyr MI Cartridge Can anyone comment on the TONAL qualities of the Zypher? I've heard that the Aida/Boheme are more neutral and detailed than the Zypher and that the Zypher is more lush and romantic sounding. Those wanting to add some tubelike qualities to their fr... | |
| Sonus Faber Cremona M's - add a subwoofer ??? One question you might want to ponder is whether the money invested in the sub could be better spent elsewhere in your system. Your room is on the small to medium size--very similar to mine (17 X 13) and you have pretty close to full range speaker... | |
| SoundSmith VPI Zephyr vs. AT-OC9 The other cart I am considering is the low or high output version of the Dyna 20X2. Anyone compare this with the Zephyr? | |
| SoundSmith VPI Zephyr vs. AT-OC9 I'd really be interested in opinions here--I'm currently using an AT-OC9MLII on my Scout and am seriously considering the Zephyr. Bpoletti--do a search as I did see one poster comparing these two cartridges who preferred the Zephyr. I'd love to he... | |
| Tube favorites for Modwright LS100? Anyone try the Synergy HiFi/Create 6SN7's and/or 5AR4 in the LS100? | |
| Most forgiving high end speaker 10k-20k? Yes, "it" does suck (the new A'gon). | |
| 5AR4/GZ34 Rectifier Tubes How would the sound of the Synergy compare with the Mullard Blackburn I am currently using in my Modwright LS100? | |
| SuperConductor 3 Cables? I tried them as part of a multicable shootout when I was recabling my system. They are very good sounding cables but a bit etched for my tastes and too difficult to work with in my application--very stiff and unwieldy. In the end I found that Empe... | |
| Devore Nines and Daedalus Athena comparison? The AP crossover is not a minor upgrade. I have a pretty good sonic memory and so even though the speakers were in Lou's shop for a while (actually the transport across the country and back took longer than the upgrade) I recall vividly how signif... | |
| Devore Nines and Daedalus Athena comparison? I think Jmbatkh put it pretty well. I've got the DA-1.1's with the AP crossovers and find the treble balance perfect in the middle (neutral) setting. There are speakers that I have heard that impart more energy in the high frequencies and have mor... | |
| Devore Nines and Daedalus Athena comparison? Well, I've heard the 9's at a NYC dealer and I own the Daedalus DA-1.1's and have heard the flagship Ulysses often so I can't really offer a comparison as I have not heard Lou's Athena's (though I hope to one day soon). I did like the 9's--a very ... | |
| Best beer Been drinking lighter summery beers lately. Tusker from Kenya is very nice and there is one in the can from the guys who make Dale's Pale Ale called something like Mama Yella Pils (too lazy to go down the the fridge and check the name for sure) th... |
