| Have you reached your end point with this addictive hobby? I have been through lots of used equipment but the search is over with separates made in the US by one of the direct to consumer folks who is well known. The sound and quality are excellent and I have no need or desire to upgrade. I have a small s... | |
| Thoughts on Dynaco A25 Speakers I had a pair. They are nice sounding, especially for the small amount of money at which they can be purchased. Mine were not particular with power sources: quality receivers or integrated or separates sounded good at low to moderate SPLs. I think ... | |
| Tannoy history and my unbelievable journey to and experience with vintage Tannoys @vinttannoy, I've been interested in Tannoy speakers for some time and found this very enlightening. So far I have only a pair of Mercury MX2 bookshelf speakers but always looking for a deal on a pair of DualConcentrics. Thanks for posting this. | |
| Big Jazz Band Music with Great Sound I ran across this album on Tidal and it has that Big Band/Jazz sound with modern SQ. The Adventures of Mr. Pottercakes by Patchwork Jazz Orchestra | |
| Revel F36 or Dali Oberon 7 From what I have read, 10 hours is not nearly enough time on the Martin Logans to judge them. I have not heard the 60's but I had a pair of the 40's which is the model just below. Harsh is not a word that I would use to describe them. Smooth, deta... | |
| Sonus Faber Grand Piano Home but with More Sparkle ? Thank you all for your comments and suggestions, much appreciated. I will look into the other speakers suggested, and experiment with toe-in. I've not used Dirac but will investigate that as well. | |

| Who uses ADS Speakers After reading all the positive comments about ADS speakers I have always wanted to try a pair. A pair of L810's were available locally last year but they sold before I could hear them. Now a year later there is a pair of L1090-2 within (3 hours) ... | |
| Speakers sound too bright. I spent a year with a pair of Martin Logan Motion 40's... the model below the 60's. I purchased them used so they were fully broken-in. Bright is not a word I would use to describe them. Sweet and airy is how I would describe the Folded Motion Twe... | |
| Sonus Faber Grand Piano Home for Mixed Genre? Thank you soix, ghdprentice, and jond for your replies. I went to hear the GPH's yesterday afternoon and I was impressed with both sound quality and appearance. We made a deal and after a few hours at home with them I think your assessments are r... | |
| What are the absolute legendary Snell model no.s? I don't know if Type D's are legendary... IIRC they came to market after Peter Snell passed away. However, I stumbled onto a nice used pair and they were my introduction to "better" speakers and better sound. Since then, many speakers have come an... | |
| Moving to separates Moving away from Audio/Video receivers was one of, if not THE biggest improvements in sound quality for me. Specifically, I went from a Sony AVR, then an Integra AVR at 90 or 100 wpc (forgot the model number) to an NAD 316BEE integrated amplifier ... | |
| Thiel Owners I tried to post photos but unable from my computer. The mid-woofers look like they belong. They have rubber surrounds but white cones instead of dark cones, and they have the little black pointed dust caps that others have. The speakers sound wo... | |
| Thiel Owners Has anyone ever seen a pair of CS1.5 that have white cones in the mid-woofers? |
