| 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... | |
| Lucinda Williams Fans? Huge fan. I've seen her a number of times in concert, all in small venues before she got "big". I'm still wondering who I lent my "Car Wheels on a Gravel Road" cd to--they must of liked it cause I never got it back. I was excited to hear about a n... | |
| Phase Coherence or Time Alignment: Which More Imp? I have to agree with Zkzpb8. Overall I thought the sound at the show was pretty bad. I can only think of one or two rooms where I was really enjoying what was going on and the Vandy room by Audio Connection was, IMHO, clearly the best. Most of wha... | |
| Everyone Knows About Jacintha, Right? She has her place, and I'm in it right now. | |
| Phase Coherence or Time Alignment: Which More Imp? Jeff, I totally accept your position. Having initiated the thread on crossover design (on which you were a gracious participant) I just thought it interesting to go back and forth between the rooms and listen to the two top models of reputable bra... | |
| Phase Coherence or Time Alignment: Which More Imp? Thanks to you both. Let me see if I understand this correctly. Phase irregularities caused by steep slope crossovers can be compounded by an alignment of the drivers which further distorts the arrival of sound waves at your ear. What I am wonderin... | |
| What age did the "audio bug" hit you? My dad had custom speakers installed in a 70's style bar type thing that held highball glasses and when opened had a mirrored back. He had a Fisher reciever and one of the original AR turntables also fitted into the cabinet. He had a bunch of reco... | |
| Wilson Benesche ACT 1 & Valve amp Tommuch. Can you elaborate on your comments regarding the ARC/WB combo? I have a 100.2 amp and SP16 preamp and am thinking of the ACT's or the Curves as a speaker option. Thoughts would be appreciated. | |
| Linn/Naim user seeks advice on tube pre/ss amp Bob. I ran a Naim HiCap/62/140 for over 10 years and had really bought into the PRAT mantra/cult. Sadly, it turns out. About a year ago I sold it all rather than pay what I consider to be far too much money for either a "recap" of my equipment or ... |
