| Subwoofer crossovers I am using 2 JL 113 in an mixed 2 channel / multi channel system with my Parsifal Encores, using an external Xover and a bass EQ unit (the SVS). An important consideration in how you want to do this is whether or not you want to run your mains at ... | |
| Share thoughts on Keith Jarrett Let me offer a different perspective. Over 10 years ago I was reading the CD liner notes of a recording of one my favorite musical discoveries of the last decade (Anouar Brahem). Brahem mentions his discovery of Keith Jarrett and hearing a distinc... | |
| Avalon Eidolon or Parsifal Encore Gigi, The Parsifals work very well at low playing levels, and I will soon be able to tell how they compare to the eidolon visions. I will either have a pair of parsifals or eidolons to sell shortly (cheap!) so stay tuned.To me the 5A's our out of ... | |
| Avalon Eidolon or Parsifal Encore The shootout will happen after all. Just agreed to buy a pair of used Eidolon Visions. | |
| Stillpoint component stand with Verity Parsifals 1 inch would be a stretch. Between the thread on the speaker itself and the ultra's may be 0.5 inch. | |
| Stillpoint component stand with Verity Parsifals You take off the brass spikes and screw on the ultra's. The ultra's themselves have a hardhat screwed on allowing you to level the speaker. | |
| Share thoughts on Keith Jarrett To me, The Koln Concert to this day is ONE, if not THE most hypnotizingly beautiful pieces of recorded music I own. Inspired by the Koln Concert I started a long journey discovery his music and between the 25+ Jarrett CDs I own I find myself comin... | |
| "God Bless the Child" on Idol? I agree. This season started with a lot of promise but went out with a whimper. May be the show is just getting old. Judges were/are as boring as the contestants. I predict Lauren will win and Scotty will have a far more succesful career. | |
| Good CD for testing bass response I would try to find different recordings for bass response one instrument at a time. Here are a few I use:For a very deep electrical bass line I use: Tin Pan Alley, on the Stevie Ray Vaughan album Couldn't Stand the WeatherFor acoustic bass, try:M... | |
| "God Bless the Child" on Idol? I always liked Haley, and she is getting better every week. Her problem is identity - she has been all over the map and this week completely out of the blue she does a rocker chick act. Although it worked out very well, my take is she is so obsess... | |
| Vandersteen 5Aa Carbon--any 5a owner's opinions? For the record, the 5a to 5a carbon upgrade will be $8600, but as has been pointed out, only original 5a owners need to apply. | |
| Stillpoint component stand with Verity Parsifals When all is said and done the ultra work out cheaper as the component stands, and are supposed to outperform them. Aestetically, the ultras also have a leg up | |
| Stillpoint component stand with Verity Parsifals There are aluminum and stainless steel versions. The former are listed at $160 each, the latter I believe are $200. Not cheap. | |
| PS Audio Perfect Wave DAC without the transport Of course, anyone familiar with the intricacies of network computing could see the stability issues with the bridge architecture coming from a mile's distance - so many variables not controlled by PS audio. I suggested to PS audio last summer they... | |
| Avalon Eidolon or Parsifal Encore They fetched $9,300. More than I was willing to pay. Too bad, shootout will have to wait... |
