| Looking for first system advice So are you throughly confused yet? There's a bagillion ways you can go here. And I seriously doubt you're goign to take anyone's blanket advise and run with it!My suggestionis to find a pair of speakers you find you like the sound of, with the mus... | |
| Have you had a hearing test? To anyone who cares to hear, "PLEASE WATCH YOUR HEARING, AND VALUE YOUR EARS!". This is the best advice I ever got in the audio business. And I like to think my hearing is "much keener" for it!I've had to repeat myself on far to many occasions whi... | |
| Dipole/Bipole Speakers on Rear Wall? first thought is that you need to place them where they SOUND THE BEST!(i.e, they are responding "flat" and "full sounding, balanced with the mains, etc). Then, the immage they create should dissapear as rears< create a large enveloping soundst... | |
| Aerial 7B vs. Thiel 2.4 Back to the original point though, I can easily see where the Theils wouldn't be someeone's cup of tea, in fav of a speaker like the Aerials, or more approachable sound. You do need to take care with a speaker like the Thiels to balance the sound ... | |
| Aerial 7B vs. Thiel 2.4 Yeah I like a lot of the coments here. I just goes to show that you need to listen/TRY for yourself! To each his own. I could easily see one persons taste/experience/preference in one dirrectio or the other. I guess in the back of my mind, I have ... | |
| Aerial 7B vs. Thiel 2.4 IMPO, the last comment on the Thiels is likely unfair! DEPENDING LARGELY ON ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT, it's way too easy to take a speakers as revealing as the Thiels(that goes with Wilson's, Magnapan's, JMlab's, NHT's, and other neutral gear), and mix... | |
| Which Threshold amp to buy??? My Threshold experiences are with the T200 and Sa3.9. The T200 was a great all around amp, even though only 100w/ch stereo. It was an "angry 100watts" however! Lot's of snap and bass weight. It was also very clear, detailed, and big sounding. I li... | |
| Digital Mid-Fi Receiver Comparisons?? I have experience with the Sony Digital pieces. Actually, they were quite good! They aren't as detailed as better, but they are very uncolored, clear, good gynamics/extension, etc. In short, I liked the digital integrateds I heard. While I haven't... | |
| how 'bout Wilson Sophias with Simaudio P-5/W-5 ?? Well you can't expect to buy this all at once and end up with the killer system to end all systems...I can tell you that right now! YOu'll have to have patience, and probably try different gear..maybe even speakers. I'd suggest buying used if you ... | |
| Denon AVR 2803 vs Integra DTR 5.4 vs HK AVR 330 Guess what?!...the more your read, the more confusing it gets! It takes years to know what's what for making "special audio/video" happen. Still, there are often better choices than others, depending.Really, I like the Denon or HK at this price. I... | |
| sonic signiture of accoustic zen satori I had the Satori's in my system for a long time(system is down currently). I like them a great deal, and a much bigger improvment over Harmonic Pro 11 and Audioquest Gibralter. I ran a double run to my speakers for improved sound. it was airy, cle... | |
| Active Speakers ? This question is too vague for acurate recommendation!For instance, there are active THX movie speakers(M&K P150's for example), studio monitors(Genelec, Westlake, JBL, Mackie,ATC,etc), full range actives (ATC,Linn,Avlar,others), Etc. What are... | |
| Is my reciever coverting back to digital? Pro logic is an Analog circuit. It's not DAC!(digital to analog conversion). The "digital soundfield processing" Yamaha uses(in addition to pro/logic) takes sound and "adds" digital delays and processing to the sound, not converting the whole thin... | |
| Good preamp suggestion for around $1000 Your Bat VK pre's are good. For cheep, with the right tubes, Audio Research's are workable as well (usually a slight bit bass bump I've found). Passives are transparant enough, yet lack dynamics a bit(not a problem from a "pass through" standpoint... | |
| Screen sound transparency Foam diffusor?...do you mean absorber? Usually foam is used for absorbtion more than diffusion. Still, Da-lite should have some more accurate info/stat's for your screen properties/effects, but maybe not! The short answer is yes, the screen will b... |
