| Best Sound at the California Audio Show, thoughts? That super-tweeter, also shown across the hall with a pair of Magico speakers, produced absolutely gorgeous high frequencies. But as seductive as that was, I think there was too much of it. It's not like the Magicos roll off at 10K. Can you add th... | |
| Does it bother you? I'll take the bait. It would be great if the studios followed more audiophile-approved practices. But because they don't, or may not, doesn't negate the value of doing all you can to make the playback as good and true as possible. Otherwise you're... | |

| Does this speaker exist? I'm in Redwood City, CA. | |
| Does this speaker exist? Tubegroover -- I'm beginning to re-think my comments about imaging and soundstaging. I've had a pair of the little KEF LS50 for a few weeks now and these things image like all get-out and I find it mighty appealing. Here's my to-do list as of toda... | |
| Attention Thiel CS3.7 owners A friend drives 3.7s with Parasound JC-1s. The combination sounds pretty great to me and is, comparatively speaking, reasonably affordable. | |
| Does this speaker exist? Funny, as others have observed, these topics eventually reach a point where every product on the market is recommended. :-)But don't let me discourage anyone, I appreciate all comments. | |
| adagios vs veenas Scrolling through the forums, I read the title of this topic as 'audiophiles vs. vegans" I like it! | |
| Does this speaker exist? Great suggestions, everybody.Dodgealum -- I think it's time for me to have another listen to Lou's creations. I haven't been going to RMAF the last few years and he doesn't hit the California shows, so it's been a while. |
