Audiogon speaker wire gurus, please help me Without mentioning any brands I would have to caution you about spending that kind of money on speaker cable. I think the money can be better spent either elsewhere in your system or by dropping $500 on some really good wire and giving the rest to... | |
The Best Midrange in the World Right Now I agree, get the midrange wrong and the rest cannot hold it all together. That's why it took me 2 years to find a speaker to replace my Harbeth Compact 7's--they don't do everything but they absolutely get the midrange right. Other than the Harbet... | |
Are you at this point?? Yeah, I'm done. Wanna sell me your XPS2 so I can mate it with my CDX2? Oops, there I go again. Forget I said that. | |
Chapman Audio Systems T-77 speakers Duh, thanks. | |
Chapman Audio Systems T-77 speakers Does anyone have any photos of these? | |
Harbeth C7 vs Proac D25 Review Very interesting--I'll look for the D28. | |
Harbeth C7 vs Proac D25 Review Alain:The D25's remained in my system on loan for about a month. In the end I came to the conclusion that while a very nice speaker it was not the best value for money--particularly given the dollars decline. The bass continued to perplex in my ro... | |
For the vinyl enthusiasts Thanks, Soundwatts! | |
Movies that featured High End equipment I happened to tune in for a minute to a new show called "Kings of Something or other". They were planning to kidnap or rob Mick Jagger. They did a brief excerpt from one of those "Let's see Mick's crib" shows and Mick was showing off his home thea... | |
For the vinyl enthusiasts Soundwatts--can you give an address and phone for Flipside. I'm a Jersey resident and haven't heard of it. It would be nice to check out a new venue. Thanks. | |
Replacement for Proac Response 3's It is my understanding that the foam surrounds on the Response 3's are prone to degradation over time. You can do a costly replacement, try to find replacement woofers (matched?) or buy new speakers. | |
Replacement for Proac Response 3's How about the new D38's? They are a little smaller, can be positioned closer to the wall due to the bottom cabinet vent and sound better than the Response 3's without being a whole new sonic signature. | |
Comparison of Thiel CS2.4 vs. Vandersteen 3A Sig. While ancillary equipment is important I don't think you can change the fundamental characteristics of either of these speakers. Thiel's = cool, dry, analytical, revealing. (Not a "harsh" word here for them). Vandersteen 3A Sigs = warm, lush, invo... | |
Comparison of Thiel CS2.4 vs. Vandersteen 3A Sig. I agree these are very different sounding speakers. Personally, I could not live with either of them for more than a short period of time as the trade offs for each are too severe. Why not look into some other brands that split the difference in t... | |
Which $7000 speakers to ask Santa? Beheme:I heard the Zen Adagio's at a recent show and was unimpressed. Of course, a show setting is not ideal so take this for what it's worth. I applaud your interest in venturing into lesser known territory. My search began by narrowing the field... |
