Review: Hyperion HPS-938
Thanks Roy. I'm glad to hear they improved the spike/stand and bass cabinet. I know the wood version has more mass in the bass cabinet and improved drivers. Just curious, when you received your new speakers, did it come in 4 or 5 separate boxes? I...

I'm glad you are another 938 owner. Beautiful aren't they. Tell me how your speakers sound.

Hi all, Some of you were interested in hearing about my replacement speakers after reading my review. The second production run are finally here, and I will be getting a new pair early next week! Thanks, Albert. I have had many nights of enjoyment... 
Review: Hyperion HPS-938
Hi all,Just got email from Albert Wu my replacement speakers are on their way. I should have them early next week. I just wish their new wood version of the 938s were similarly priced. They are beautiful! I would have taken the wood version in a h... 
What`s with the Hyperion HPS 938
By the way, I too have auditiond the Totem Forests before buying the Hyps, and I have to agree with Roy. The Hyps are on a completely different level, no comparing the two. 
What`s with the Hyperion HPS 938
Hi all,It's been awhile since I last checked this board after writing my review of 938s last year. I'm perplexed by some of the recent negative posts, but I've seen this kind of reaction to other well reviewed products. I really have to agree with... 
Review: Hyperion HPS-938
IMHO the 938s are more transparent, coherent, and have better inner detail. The VR4jrs seems to extend deeper in the bass when I heard them. 
Review: Hyperion HPS-938
Ctchen, isn't the 47labs gaincard similar to the audiozone amp? Please let me know how the dimunitive gaincard drives the 938s. I'm also interested in getting a DAC and have considered the Apogee and Benchmark. Any opinions between the two? 
Review: Hyperion HPS-938
Ah...no. The Hyps and VS VR4jrs definately do not sound the similar by any stretch of the imagination. 
Review: Hyperion HPS-938
Ctchen, congradulations! What electronics will you be using? I will be posting a follow-up review on the Hyps soon. Made some changes to my integrated amp and few tweaks that has me drooling when I listen to my system now. 
The best speaker you ever heard?
The best speakers for me are those that can sound damn impressive in my own modest room without expert room treatment and megaexpensive electronics. Anyone can make a "best" speakers for $20k+, and they will require very expensive electronics to s... 
Best $3000 - $4000 loudspeaker?
All the above mentioned speakers are high quality stuff. I've auditioned the Totem Forests, Von Schweikert VR4-jrs and Gallo Ref3s recently and owned various planars in the past. But after much soul searching, my vote goes to the Hyperion 938s whi...
