| The best tweeter is no tweeter Thank you Eric. Been an ESS fan since 1973, purchased a pair of ESS AMT4. Later purchased a pair of ESS AMT5 with the round ring tweeter. The actual AMT driver/veils material has changed over the decades, resulting in much controversary. IMHO... | |
| i'm looking for something that may not exist Sounds viable. You seem to have a good idea, how do you get it done? See if if it is possible with todays available technology. Develop your prototype. Search for a partner. Digital Amplifier Company has used a crowd/site source buy in for th... | |
| Tim Mrock, Krissy Mrock, and The Perfect Path Very nice review. Well written, honest. great step by step. Been thinking about Perfect Path as a future purchase. Thank you. | |
| Forever speakers around $5000 Try the Magnepan LRS entry model from the factory. Free shipping and you can return them if unhappy. Yes they will lack some bottom, a pair of small subs or three or four will compensate and complete an overall great speaker system for the price... | |
| Watts and power I really like my Magnepans. From the on wall version up to the MGCIII(needs factory repair). After 15 years of trying to get them to sound best. For me hi current 200wpc amps work best. Went from old school BGWs to MTX Soundcraftsman to JBL Sy... | |
| A Not So Funny Thing Happened On The Way to the Tonearm.... Had a Pickering medium priced cart on a Dual 1219 that regrooved one side of a Emerson Lake & Palmer LP. Funny thing was it played just fine during the regrooving process. Went to turn the record over for side 2 and saw the damage. Went with t... | |
| Which way do I lean... My Magnepan MGCI is on it's side under the TV, about 20 inches off the floor. It is only an inch or two wider than the TV. It used for the center channel and sits about 6 inches from the wall. Purpose, dialogue, works really well. As far as so... | |
| Mmmm Crow tastes good... Gochurchgo, you are far from white trash imho. You deserve the utmost respect for keeping your family together and taking care of your daughter. I too have lived in less than desirable locations. Making do and accepting your situation probably ... | |
| The 5 stages of making a bad audio purchase Nice riff on Elisabeth Kubler-Ross and the 5 stages of grief. | |
| Who remembers audio from the time when ... Dave's not here..... 1957 parents has a portable all in one mono Zenith record player. 4 speeds 16 2/3 up to 78, tubes and awesome (at the time) bass. Pop played 2 45s a lot The Beat and The Tennessee Stud. Needles were ceramic and about 1.50 ... | |
| Maggie owners (past, present, future) what do (did) you love and or dislike about them? Cones vs thin film speakers? So why not both. I have a pair of MGCIIIs, MGAs, MG1Cs, MGWs, MG on walls, DWMs, and a MGCC2. Not all work. The IIIs were sold as only needing a pair of ribbon tweeters needing a rebuild. The midranges were also ... | |
| Speaker Imaging - Do you hear a line, or do you hear an arc?? With the SACD Gaucho by Steely Dan, the band is in the living room. Speakers are Martin Logan Clarities, Magnepan DWMs crossed over at 75hz to 2 10's and a 12 in three boxes. I recently put a 1/2 inch lift in the rear of the MLs, brought the sou... | |
| SACD Player--Do you use it and feel you'd replace it if it broke? Yes, I would replace a broken SACD player. I have 2 Oppo BDP95s. Best SACD disc for me is Steely Dan's Gaucho, it is everything that CDs promised. My musician friends can't get over the 'liveness' and quality of the music. | |
| Kef vented tweeter Erik, curious about your Heil AMT comment. I have been listening to Heils since 1974. AMT4's were my first encounter. Several Large Heils were bought and sold,and also the newwer thinner 4's. Gave away a pair of ring Heils in a modded Pioner C... | |
| Raidho D1.1 is now a Legacy speaker @d2girls +1. A quote from Honky Tonk Sue "If he has to brag he's going to sag". Circa 1978-9 a Phoenix AZ free press publication. And that is what on board memory is about. |
