| klipschorns, they kick ass for sure Tomtab,Heck with the naysayers. This hobby is all about enjoyment. If you enjoy these speakers and they bring you happiness, you are much better off than the negative people who post their ugly opinions. | |
| Which CD\SACD? I said I wouldn't have another CD player, sold my McIntosh MCD500 on Audiogon, as I've been using a media server...but the server hard drive packed it up, is back at the factory being re-imaged or replaced, so I thought...since I have an external ... | |
| klipschorns, they kick ass for sure Back in the late 1970's early 1980's I worked at dealers which sold Klipsch speakers, I actually met Paul at an audio show in DC on year, very interesting guy!I sold a lot of this generation of Klipsch speakers, not so many Klipschorns (people nee... | |
| WARNING - USE UPS FOR SHIPPING RATHER THAN FEDEX I've used both and have never had a bad experience with either, with one exception.When I sold my NAD Masters Series components (3 cartons), shipping from Maryland to Colorado, the buyer could only accept and sign for the shipment from home, after... | |
| JL Audio e112 sub vs. JL Audio Fathom 112 v.2 When they first became available, I purchased a pair of F113V2's, probably would have been just as happy with F112V2's, really excellent subs. I had a Velodyne before that, great sub as well, but the JL Audio's just seem more "precise" to me. | |
| So how many people are using subwoofers I agree wholeheartedly when Bob Reynolds says:" Utilizing a sub, any sub, is all about the setup".I'm now on my fourth or fifth setup with subs and in all cases it's taken a while to get them properly "integrated" in the system.A few months ago I... | |
| Raidho D3 vs Magico Q3 A few months ago I ended my quest to upgrade my speakers, auditioning models from these two brands in the process.Before listening to the Magico's, the salesman asked if I preferred "analytic" speakers or one's which were "musical". I'd never hea... | |
| looking at mcintosh pre-amp c2500. Can I do better for the cost of a Mac? Last year I upgraded to a McIntosh C50 pre-amp and MC452 power amp, yes, I know a lot of audiophiles don't like "the M brand", but for several months, auditioning lots of speakers, that combination (to me) really stood out as being very "musical".... | |
| Going to rip 2000 cds. Which software? I made that transition about 18 months ago.I decided on an Autonomic Controls MMS-5A "Mirage" music server, which has a 1tb internal hard drive, a decent iPad app to control it, an app that runs on my Windows10 laptop to sync from my iTunes librar... | |
| Bad news for audiophiles? Hey, if you enjoy drinking a $90 bottle of wine more than a $10 bottle, who am I to criticize you?I worked as a salesman at a high-end audio shop in DC, one of the early adopters of an "electronic A-B" system, that allowed the customer to compare ... | |
| Anyone Used REW-Room EQ Wizard? Everyone,I had the worst experience working to integrate a pair of new subs into a (new) listening room, used a sound pressure meter and tonal sweep, but it just didn't sound right. I found using REW and a miniDSP calibration microphone worked wo... | |
| Sub options with purely music in mind. A few months ago I was ready to place my order for a pair of JL Audio F112V2's and instead ordered a pair of F113V2's, given the size of my listening room. In the end, I probably would have done just as well with the F112V2's (and saved a bit of ... | |
| After Several Years, Time to Upgrade: Your Suggestions Pirius,Last year was a major equipment upgrade year for me, learning all sorts of new stuff about audio and sound quality. It all sounded great, when I "dialed in" the new speakers, then all bets were off, adding new sub woofers, as the acoustics... | |
| DAC Choices today? I have been very happy with the PS Audio DirectStream DAC I purchased about 18 months ago. It sounds great and the firmware updates PS Audio provides has improved the sonic performance. | |
| Servers: Are we there yet? For the last 18 months or so I've had an MMS-5A media server from Autonomic Controls. It needs to be connected via a wired ethernet connection to the home network. It also has an iPad/Android app to use content. But it also has a Windows app, t... |
