| Recording Studio sound Vs. Audiophile system Yes it seems odd the engineer would not allow photos (or give out the protools project files) but honestly the sound (for a psyc rock record) preserved the complete waveform of transients in a way I almost never hear. Or maybe just listening to un... | |
| Small room electrostat/ planar speaker? Having had 63’s in a small room , then in a larger room, and having a friend who used to own soundlabs in too small a room for them, I would not go with planars in That space. I feel planars really need space to breath.maybe look into the new Elac... | |
| Paradigm Speakers As an enthusiast and dealer for some products I feel as long as we mention that , dealers can be a great source of information. I feel People don’t get into this industry solely for the financial aspect. It’s a passion. There are far more lucrativ... | |
| Has anyone had experiences good or bad with speaker isolation or isolation in general ? I’m having a bit of trouble understanding the benefits of isolation for speakers. That being said, I do have modular halcyonics type units under my turntable and even with it’s weight at over 150 lbs, the active vibration cancellation when turned ... | |
| List of artists that have never lost quality throughout entire career Bruce Springsteen is an artist whoose work has matured and grown. lyrically he's become more complex as well. I heard some of his recent shows where's he's performed Born in the USA and The River. I not only saw this music performed in the e... | |
| Do I need a power conditioner? Dealer alert here but the Audiquest Niagara 7000 made a huge difference in the system. And it only requires 1 20 amp line and has 3 seperate zones for amps, and analog digital gear . It also deliveres up to 90 amps current for short peaks . I have... | |
| Have you ever tried a pair of speakers and said this Is the last thing I will ever need. I was a dealer for TAD a few years ago and still have the CR1'S. I can't imagine ever getting rid of them even if I move to another speaker. I augmented them with subs and super tweeters but I don't often comeback from an audio show and think I... | |
| High End Amp Price Collapse musings PAul at PS Audio invested years trying to make a world class amp from class D - even creating custom input module but abandoned it for AB of the BHK amps which sounded far superior. | |
| WORST Experience Ever in Dealing With Woodbridge Stereo NJ On a complete side note, I just purchased a used set of video color correction panels called davinci resolve from a post production facility in Tennessee. The seller was so adamant about not shipping due to breakage he is driving them here to NYC.... | |
| WORST Experience Ever in Dealing With Woodbridge Stereo NJ Wow. Someone should alert Woodbridge about this thread and let them respond here. These are very serious accusations and while I have no doubt about Chris' experience, it would be interesting and proper to hear the store owner defend himself. | |
| The $3,600 gamble Can’t you audition speakers over the phone? Just have the seller hold up his iPhone and listen......ok that was a joke but upon rereading it I did realize myself and a friend did distinctly hear the benefits of a power conditioner from a YouTube d... | |
| I heard the $4000 Focal Utopia Headphones yesterday I belive beryllium is dangerous during the manufacturing process but left alone is stable. It is brittle and can be poked with a finger which is why there is a metal grill over the beryllium mid/tweeter of my TAD's. | |
| Paradigm Personas: A First Listen Just to correct Audiotroy, TAD was the first and also currently to offer a beryllium midrange (to accompany a beryllium tweeter). Theirs is vapor deposited over copper then the copper is dissolved leaving a new crystalline structure of beryllium. ... | |
| PS Audio BHK 300 mono VS Modwright KWA 150SE mono VS D'agostino Classic stereo Great summation Mitch though I must add that Fremer’s review of the BHK’s was done via unbalanced inputs. Honestly I don’t think the review was worth doing under those conditions. Like road testing a Lamborghini on low test gas or winter tires. Su... | |
| PS Audio BHK 300 mono VS Modwright KWA 150SE mono VS D'agostino Classic stereo Dealer alert but here goes: I have the BHK 300’s on my TAD CR1’S and couldn’t be happier. Ps audio planned on offering a solid state input option but the tube input just trounced it for sound quality. To me that’s a big deal since I have found hyb... |
