| Modern EL34s VS NOS Winged C - and return policies? I'm about three weeks in with a matched quad of Telefunken EL34 TK reissue i got from Viva Tubes. (still on sale BTW). They replaced the Gold Lion KT88's that came with my Cary SLI80HS. So far I am really digging these new tubes. I hear a much mo... | |
| Tannoy or Volti I am glad to hear you had that opportunity @charles007100 You described pretty well what I consider the Volti house sound. Also glad you got to compare them with some Klipsch. They may look similar on the surface, but surely sound different. M... | |
| Tannoy or Volti Couldn't agree more with @whiteknee I am a proud owner of a pair of Razz that I had Greg add some custom veneer and grill cloth. If one is interested in the journey of auditioning speakers, then a conversation and trip to meet Greg and have a li... | |
| What decibel level do you listen at? What is ideal? +1 with @ketcham8 !! nothing better than when I have a block of solid time home alone. | |
| Have some fun with bookshelf monitors!! + 1 enthusiastically for the PS Aspen FR5.! Got a chance to listen to them at AXPONA. What a great monitor. I think it's one of those "instant classics" everyone will still talk about 50years from now. | |
| Seeking horn array loudspeakers with a maximum price of $17,500.00 per pair. Greg is a heck of a guy. Obviously puts his all into his product. Additionally he’s great at answering questions, making sure you the consumer are fully satisfied. I never felt any pressure from him and I spent a full day with he and his wife. The... | |
| Seeking horn array loudspeakers with a maximum price of $17,500.00 per pair. If I were in your shoes with that budget, my choice would be to take that dough and get a nice pair of custom veneer Volti Lucera's or a used pair of Rival's then spend the remainder on tube amplification. I had the Rogue RP-1 and liked it very mu... | |

| Building a second, vinyl focused system. Speaker advice needed! (<$10k) @primarist Glad you got to meet up with Greg at his shop. I had a similar experience when I picked up my pair of Razz, (however I am about 9 hours drive from him). It was all worth it and then some. I totally agree with you re: his hospitality, h... | |
| Speakers for leading edge, transients, speed and big sound You could pick up a beautiful Volti Rival in custom veneer of your choice brand spanking new within your budget. All the dynamics, speed, accuracy and room filling sound you can want. Plus you don’t need heroic amplifiers to do so as they are supe... | |
| How many times can u visit a hifi store before it annoys the store if u plan on a purchase I agree with @jond during my college years I worked at a family owned hifi store, for our town some really excellent gear, Conrad Johnson, Phillips, Cary, Mission/Cyrus, Tannoy, Paradigm, Ariston, EV, NHT, NAD, Proton etc.. we had a small group ... | |
| Best Holographic Speakers ~$7k per pair Based upon what you listen to, your room and budget, I would strongly suggest Volti Razz. I’m absolutely smitten with mine. IMO for the money there’s nothing I heard when looking to buy 2 years ago that even came close to the power, dynamics, imag... | |
| Technics SL-1300G Turntable issues Fellow 1300G owner here and I have the same complaint. It’s actually my only complaint. @dmorse6736 I understand what you are referring to regarding the bands, I don’t seem to have that issue. As an illustration if i were to have the platter rota... | |
| Picking speakers 3000-5000 budget All excellent suggestions already, but here's my two bits.. If you like to listen at moderate to high volume, enjoy really excellent dynamics and listen to a variety of genre’s I would have you seriously consider Volti Razz. Looks and behaves som... |
