Harbeth Owners - What do you think? Dodge, I used to have ProAc 2.5's. When I get the Harbeths, I can comment on how they compare. The ProAcs are one of those speakers with "magic" in the midrange. They are expressive or communicative or whatever you want to call it--you connect wit... | |
Harbeth Owners - What do you think? Wow! I have a pair of HL5s coming shortly (should be very different from my Thiels). Y'all can come over and listen. | |
Blind Power Cord Test & results In violent agreement, as they say. | |
Wilson Benesch ARC vs. other Scanspeak revelators The Tyler products seem to use the Seas Millenium Tweeter. Or is that the same as the Scanspeak Revelator? | |
Blind Power Cord Test & results Perhaps misleading if you are trying to choose which you prefer. Less so if all you are trying to do is detect the difference. When I make a cable change at home, I can hear a difference right away. A day later, I sometimes feel differently about ... | |
Audiogon and the Hi-Fi Mags The mags have certainly discussed the audio community on the Internet writ large, by which they mainly mean Audio Asylum. I suppose the discussion forums here on Audiogon are minor league, not where the real players hang. It's love-hate, but mostl... | |
Spanish Guitar An absolutely killer classical guitar album is the Assad brothers (Sergio & Odair) playing Rameau, Scarlatti, Couperain, and Bach. It's Nonesuch 79292-2. Been in pretty steady rotation for me for 10 years. | |
Wilson Benesch ARC vs. other Scanspeak revelators I don't think the Ref 3a MM Decapo uses the Revelator. Don't see how it could at $2500. | |
Blind Power Cord Test & results Good post, TWL. I would lean toward #2 and/or #6. Since I always hear differences myself in my system, #1 and #7 are not conclusions I would ever reach for myself. Everyone wants to believe #4 because they think that they have the real golden ears... | |
Blind Power Cord Test & results Warren, what are you talking about? I think you're not paying attention.Sean, I think you are incorrect to dismiss the process as completely as you appear to be doing, and I'm surprised to read your post. I'll bet that every one of us has heard di... | |
Blind Power Cord Test & results Again, this test was not about how you decide what works or what you prefer. It was about whether or not you can hear a difference under controlled conditions.I think we have all preferred the "lesser" product at one time or another. That does not... | |
Blind Power Cord Test & results I was part of the panel for this test. My personal results--the number of times I correctly identified if X was A or B--were dismal, and it sort of left me depressed to tell you the truth. I believe the methodology was sound. At any rate, I was sa... | |

How good is the Shunyata Venom Silver A/C outlet? Grant went to the Robert of StarSound school of customer relations. | |
Jim Capaldi RIP. One of the most impressive and impresively tasteful rock drummers I ever saw. Saw two extemely memorable Traffic shows, one in 1968 and one in 1970. |
