| Think of buying a Magnepan Surround Setup It's all good, indeed...It is funny however. I've sold maggie 1.6's for years, and the last thing that would ever likely come to my mind for ANY serious home theater speaker would be MAGGIES!!! I've yet to hear a Magnapan HT system I thought sound... | |
| Sunfire Sunfire Signature Series II Hummmmm...It's been awhile for me with the BP3000's. But I do think I remeber them as being a bit more laid back than the BP2000's if I'm not mistaken. I could be wrong, but I've heard both several times, in many locations. I always thought the 20... | |
| Tonality comparison: Cardas vs. Tara Labs That's probably about right, what Bigtee mentioned. I think the Cardas works best in systems that are bordering on "edgy" or slightly agressive sounding. Also, if the system is a bit cold and analytical, you could get away with the cardas as a goo... | |
| Infinity Prelude MTS I do think the Infinity Preludes make Excellent speakers in the right application. They are excellent dynamic speakers with plenty of slamm and pace for HT and dynamic music! They are refined and clear enough, with negligable coloration on their o... | |
| What tube pre amp for live sound on rock and roll I've owned plenty of preamps over the years, including several audio research "tubies". It's like anything else, you give em a try! Ifyou don't like it, move on. With the right tubes it would be as good as you'll ever need(from your description), ... | |
| Dunlavys for HT Common Sense says matching SC's all around. If you have a monitor, you must do SCIav, SMI or Reference center and such. If you had a perf screen/projector set up, you might be able to get away with a larger Dun behind the screen. Other rears I've ... | |
| 7.1 Sound and Bipole/Dipole v. Direct Radiating One more thing....I just wanted to add that "di-poles" are indeed more forgiving of side posssition, and often more effective on their own in that application. Something "side-mounted di-poles" do so well is NOT DRAW ATTENTION TO THEMSELVES, and t... | |
| Paradigm vs. Boston Acoutics I personally have sold both brands on a retail level. I never personally cared for the warm/modestly detailed Paradigms(the Servo 15 is a winner though). And I was never interested in owning any of the Paradigms myself, except maybe the Servo 15(t... | |
| 7.1 Sound and Bipole/Dipole v. Direct Radiating Completely understand you're rather pertinent and informed question! YOu bring up a valid issue and situation with which to consider. I've sold Wilson's in the past, and know the speakers. Yes, you would and should stay with ALL WILSONS in your ca... | |
| PSB Stratus Goldi vs Paradigm Studio 100 v2 The Magnepan 1.6's, which I used to sell on a retail level, are indeed more detailed, and refined sounding overall than the PSB speakers. The Magnepan ISN'T HOWEVER the DYNAMIC SPEAKER that the Silver's are!!!! Infact, the Manepan IS NOT an edequa... | |
| PSB Stratus Goldi vs Paradigm Studio 100 v2 If you must stay with Canadian "speaks", and you are straying towards the PSB line, my experience selling this line with lots of gear is that the PSB Silver I's are a better sounding speaker overall! They are surely less colored and have a more ne... | |
| anybody heard the martin logan descent subwoofer ? Have heard it(in a couple of senarios (seemed set up well enough), wasn't overly impressed with it. (lots of good subs out there that will do the same or better in all respects potentially). You could save your money and buy a Pardigm Servo 15 tha... | |
| If you like Jazz you've go to hear "Up in Smoke " If you like Jazz(I'm not a huge fan actually), you gotta get Monster Cables HDCD Jazz compilation! Very good indeed, even if you don't care so much for jazz! It's good, well recorded (HDCD), and great demo material! | |
| ++++StereoPhile Class A components+++++ ..."Reviewers have good and bad days just like us."(Johnj)..I would have to disagree with this statment! Reviewers, if you read their reviews, have products for review for WEEKS, EVEN MONTHS!!!...not a day! And they all have reference systems whit... | |
| Best CD player under $500 used? Owned the Ikon MK2, and used to sell the Rega Planet from a retail store. Both good players for their perspective ranges overall. an older Panasonic DVDA310 dvd player floating around out there for around $200, it's absolutely musical, detailed, a... |
