| Cary vs Raven Cary and Volti or Klipsch, can’t go wrong with either pairing. | |
| Tube Integrated Amp Recommendation Hard to go wrong with a good used Cary SLI 80 with the older tube rectifier section. Also take a look at Margules I240.. | |
| Who out there wants to, or has, validated an amazing cable find? Man I really do enjoy a good piece of blueberry pie! | |
| A Few Nice Words For Upscale Audio My hand full of purchases from Upscale have all been top notch. Most recently with Bill. He spent a good amount of time answering my questions, asking me thoughtful questions so I could land on the wonderful Hana ML cart. Even during my sausage fi... | |
| Your Not-So-Obvious Best Fidelity LPs @paulietunes totally with you on that Dan pick, my record store guy recommended it and it was in my top 5 of last years buys. I’d like to add a couple of my go to’s John Lee Hooker “The Healer” The Secret Sisters debut album The Melvins “Hou... | |
| Speaker Pairing - First Watt F8 Happy Razz owner here! Complete agree with @decooney @kennyc If you do go and visit Greg at his place you will not be disappointed. I pray you enjoy the visit as much as I did. Easily my top most memorable HiFi experience. | |
| Young audiophile metal head looking to level up speaker choice Excellent suggestions on the Goldenear’s ! I’ve heard them more than a few times and always come away impressed with their open and airy feel, super musical too. Ive only heard the paradigm founder 80’s and really liked them a lot. I understand f... | |
| Lowest priced MC thats better than a Premium MM? +1 on the Hanna ML. Just amazed with it. Amazing detail and clarity! | |
| Young audiophile metal head looking to level up speaker choice Metalhead here too! If I were starting out I’d scrape together $2.5 or so and buy used heresy lll or IV and an SVS sub, 1000 or 2000 ported. Also paradigm founder series (not easy to find used at good prices) Goldenear.. already some great suggest... | |
| Efficient speakers -- What was your journey from A to B to ? @ozzy62 you bring up a good point my friend. Greg is also a go to guy when it comes to modifying Klipsch speakers. It would be a cool way to go if that was the way to a great pair of speakers. Find a nice vintage pair of K-horns or Lascala (sp) a... | |
| Efficient speakers -- What was your journey from A to B to ? @decooney and @hilde45 Just a thought, on Volti’s web page, Greg has an nice and thoughtful writeup on comparing and contrasting the Forte and Razz. Don’t get me wrong, it doesn’t replace an actual sit down and listen to each of them, however he ... | |
| Efficient speakers -- What was your journey from A to B to ? Just my two bits. I’ve owned many traditional speakers, drivers in box, ported and sealed. Rogers, Mission, TDL, NHT, Tyler.. I enjoyed all of them. They have been mostly polite, natural and neutral sounding. Wanting some more impact and dynamics ... | |
| Speakers - Your "Safest" Choice Volti Rivals. Beautifully built, beautiful to look at, musical, dynamics and impact to die for, easy drive for just about any amplifier. Spend $15 to $18k and spend the rest on music | |
| Speakers - Your "Safest" Choice How about a pretty economical trip to the Florida expo in February. (For me about $800, flights, hotel, tickets to the event, 1 free for my beloved…) then go talk to madman Greg of Volti Audio, have a listen to what he brought to the show. After a... | |
| 2024 Audio System Wish List 2024 is going to be weird. For the first time in my life, I am completely happy with my system. I did the simple math as I was turning in for the night. In order to make a notable improved change, I'd need to double the price with about every piec... |
