| Thoughts On The PMC OB1? Thanks Cinematic. Are you suggesting the use of a subwoofer with the OB1? I figured with the transmission line enclosure and rated response down into the 20hz region one would not be necessary in my 15 X 26 X 9 room. I would prefer a full range fl... | |
| Thoughts On The PMC OB1? Kw6. I do like the Sophia--very much. However, while I find it very attractive, my wife does not. It really is a bit large and too modern looking for our living room. It is also a bit beyond what I would like to pay. If I had a dedicated room and ... | |
| First Order Crossovers: Pros and Cons Not sure if anyone is still paying attention here but I was just reading a review of the PMC OB1 loudspeaker in which the reviewer states that the crossover is wonderfully designed and produced a plot of phase coherence that is the best he has eve... | |
| Linn Sondek LP12 - Cartridge recommendation I agree with the above posts. I had an LP 12 for a number of years and I would stick with one of the Linn arms. Everything I read at the time suggests the SME is a poor match for that table. It is too heavy to obtain the proper adjustment of the s... | |
| Harbeth Owners - I Need Some Help Dan, I think much of what you say is true--and I will take it as a warning. When folks refer to any component as a good "reviewers tool" it raises in my mind the "great divide" that seems to exist within the community--between those that are into ... | |
| Harbeth Owners - I Need Some Help Dan--most assuredly not an indictment of the speaker. I think it speaks to the essential musicality of the design. I'm not sure that I would classify any speaker as great (or even acceptable) that only "worked" with the right combination of select... | |
| Harbeth Owners - I Need Some Help Grills on. I'm using custom made Target 19" stands--with the spikes it raised the speaker 20" from the floor. I had the top plate cut so it would fit just inside the dimensions of the speaker. They look great and work very well. Sound Anchor can d... | |
| Are the Von Schweikert VR-4JRs really all that? I know I'll be in the minority here but I personally do not think they are "all that". I did an extensive audition and found the bass, while deep and quite powerful, to lack pitch definition and speed. It was noticably "unnatural" sounding in the ... | |
| Your "DREAM" piece I'd (nearly) kill for a pair of Wilson-Benesch ACT's. They would go real nice with my system and room decor. Please don't anyone ask this question again--its depressing! Hey Beemer--what model? I've got a 73tii Colorado Orange. | |
| The song you just cant stop playing??? Geeze, I couldn't get through ONE play of "Tambourine" the recording was so G-D awful. I sold it before I even played side two. What a disappointment after "Bramble Rose" which had good tunes and was pretty well recorded. Tift changed producers an... | |
| Harbeth M30 I would suggest you move away from the Naim equipment. I drove my Compact 7's with a 62/HiCap/140 for a number of years and then switched to ARC tube pre and solid state amp combo. Biggest improvement I have ever made to my system. The Naim does n... | |
| Review: Harbeth 7ES-2 & Monitor 30 Monitor I auditioned the D25 recently and commented more extensively on another thread. A very nice speaker, indeed. | |
| Review: Harbeth 7ES-2 & Monitor 30 Monitor Steev-n. Interesting--the guide and my experience are at odds. Oh well, who can figure with all the different variables of room acoustics, material construction, etc. Don't deny the wild hair--you won't regret it! | |
| Review: Harbeth 7ES-2 & Monitor 30 Monitor Steev-n. I think most people who have heard both the C7 and the Monitor 30 prefer the latter. As I said in my post, I haven't heard the speaker. Knowing what I know about the C7 and HL5, I'm sure it is fantastic. The point of my post was to indica... | |
| Review: Harbeth 7ES-2 & Monitor 30 Monitor Great review! Thanks for putting in the time. The Monitor 30 and C7 were compared a while ago by Bob Neill at enjoythemusic.com and I'm not sure whether your review or that one is more thorough and enjoyable to read. Perhaps a second career in the... |
