| Best Floorstander Under 10K? Thanks, Classicaudio. I am interested in the D38. I heard the 3.8 once and liked it very much. How does the new series D38 compare? There hasen't really been much out there about the new series. | |
| Anyone Heard the DeVore Silverbacks? Pragmatism, thanks for the lengthy and informative post. I recently auditioned the Silverbacks at In Living Stereo and agree that they are nice speakers indeed. However, my timing was not very good as I went during the week of CES and the dealer h... | |
| REL strata vs. storm and room size Riverside13--just to finish the thread above as I had to cut it short. What I was trying to convey at the end is that no matter how good the Rel Stadium (or other quality sub) are, I have learned by experience that for two channel audio a subwoofe... | |
| REL strata vs. storm and room size My room is 14 X 26 X 9 and I had both the Storm and the Stadium in my system for audition. I went with the Stadium. It is a more substantial piece. My experience was different from the above post in that I found the Stadium to have more AND better... | |
| Best Floorstander Under 10K? Philnyc. I think a distinguished loudspeaker requires some distinctive woods. I feel like the standard maple, cherry, rosewood, etc. would be a little boring (I know, this from the guy who thinks the glossy too loud!). The euculyptus done by Harbe... | |
| Best Floorstander Under 10K? Philnyc. I agree that the piano black is better, but not by much. The way I see it is you have a fairly traditional looking column with a modern a high gloss finish--it just doesn't work (for me). Any chance of using whatever influence you have to... | |
| Best Floorstander Under 10K? Well, well. Sorry to have started something here. Actually, I am most intrigued by the last post--a floorstander by Harbeth. Anyone hear it at the CES? If they can pull off a visually attractive speaker that sounds anything like the C7 (or better ... | |
| Best Floorstander Under 10K? Personally, I have no problem with anyone posting to promote their own product, provided there is disclosure. In fact, I'm quite interested in hearing about products that are outside the mainstream as they may represent a better value than those t... | |
| Best Floorstander Under 10K? P.S. I also like the Sophia. However the styling is too modern. | |
| Best Floorstander Under 10K? Once again, thanks for all your help. Where can I get more info about the Irsky LSA Model 2? Also, Rsquared, thanks for the heads up on the Curves--I hadn't seen any reviews. I'll also look into the new Vandy's. The Model 5's really are quite larg... | |
| Best Floorstander Under 10K? Thanks to everyone and keep the suggestions coming! I've researched a few of the lesser known brands and am happy to have widened my horizons. To those that suggest I keep the Harbeths--I hear you. If it were not for their unattractive appearance ... | |
| Best Floorstander Under 10K? Thanks Jphii. Over the past year I've slowly upgraded my entire system--except the speakers and thus the post. Current equipment, which I expect to keep for a good many years, includes:Audio Research 100.2Audio Research SP16 w phonoVPI Scout/JMW9/... | |
| Anyone Heard the DeVore Silverbacks? Prfont. Thanks for the thoughtful comments. I have set up a demo at Living Stereo and am looking forward to hearing the Silverbacks. I'd like to probe one of your comments a little more deeply--that there are a number of "great" speakers in that p... | |
| VPI Scoutmaster Hum Problem Solved How did you solve the problem? I'm sure there are a lot of Scout owners out there that may run into it at some point. Thanks. | |
| Audio Research 100.2 vs. 150.2 Thanks Dlwask and Gmele. Gmele, I'm curious upon what basis you caution against the 150.2. I know the amps are radically different in design, the 150.2 being a digital switching amp. This is, in part, what concerns me as I love the sound of the 10... |
