| DeVore Orangutan O/96 Kharl1955,Who on this thread made a judgment with regards to how the Orangutans sound? John Devore insinuated that the original Orangutan prototypes would be around 8K. This year's prototype, the 0/96, are now expected to be around 12K. According ... | |
| DeVore Orangutan O/96 The AN-E/SPe HE is a great speaker for the right room, and last time I looked they were still under 8K. The AN-E only has an 8" bass driver, and the excitement regarding the Orangutan is that 10" SEAS woofer. John also told me that the Orangutans ... | |
| DeVore Orangutan O/96 I missed this year and last year's CES and I don't believe that John has shown up to RMAF for years. I was very anxious to hear the 0/96, but for 12K I've moved on. For that price I would consider a new Horning Aristotle or a used Agathon. Secondl... | |
| Blue Ray that Plays rented Movies???? Oak244,Get rid of it!I have a 2009 Samsung BDP3600 and I have the "exact" same issue. About 1 out of 5 new blu-ray dvds will not play. It drives me crazy. Furthermore the function keys, like skip or menu, have never worked. I have a cheap Sony blu... | |
| Merlin Music VSM-MXR Thanks for the reply Malcolm. You need to have children that go to bed early to understand the value of low level clarity. | |
| Merlin Music VSM-MXR Interesting review Malcolm. So I guess you didn't get a chance to try the new BAM with the old MMe? I've been complaining about the "slight" brightness (try a violin concerto or sonata) for awhile now. Although few people have chimed in with the s... | |
| Your favorite 3 rooms at RMAF Granted my favorite rooms may not have been the best sounding rooms at the show, but rather they had components and speakers that were interesting to me and within my price range. I attended all three days and almost missed my flight on Sunday.Num... | |
| California Audio Show ths wknd bttr than expected I too was impressed with the new Tonian Classic 7.1 1B, although it would have been nice to hear these speakers powered by tubes rather than a single transistor. Several people pulled out CDs and handed them to "mister not-enthusiastic" while I wa... | |
| The Hub: California Audio Show I spent my entire Friday there and had a great time.For the price I thought that the Tonian Labs new Classic 7.1 1B was hard to beat, and I'm not a big fan of ribbon tweeters.I also had a great time talking to Mike Zivkovic and the Clearaudio reps... | |
| Dehavilland 50A has anyone purchased one? Thanks all...and Lula I hope you will eventually get an answer, although I don't think it will be on this thread.I apologize for the direction that this thread took. I am appreciative that someone, anyone, took the time to reply to my question.Shr... | |
| Dehavilland 50A has anyone purchased one? Thanks for the advice Sounds_real_audio. The 50A is more rich and textured than the Aries 845? Wow that's saying a lot.Other than a 50A sighting at RMAF there really has been an adequate review of this amp. | |
| New Speaker Cables for Merlin MME Celtic66,You can do a search on this topic and find many many opinions. I believe that Bobby voices his speakers using Cardas GR or Clear.I too have the MMe. I own Cardas GR (both bi-wire and single) speaker and IC, TG audio silver speaker, Audien... | |
| Recommended Speaker for Triode Amp Kennythekey,I've not heard the T-5, but the T-1.3 and the T-3.3 with all field coil drivers are really something special. The midrange of the T-1.3 is to die for. Rarely does the sound from a speaker make me tear up. Unfortunately the CAR speakers... | |
| Joule LA150MK2 upgrade to LA150SE- Any comments? Were you wise enough to play your Hendrix and Cream at a modest volume? One too many Grateful Dead concerts for me. I'm a midrange listener now. | |
| Merlin vsm mme owners, Cardas cabling Question. I have a pair of VSM MMe with the most recent lead free upgrade, and I'm still waiting in the queue for the BAM upgrade. I too have known and admired Bobby's speakers since I first heard the Excaliburs in the 80's, but this has nothing to do with ... |
