Power Amp advice there are levinson 436 monoblocks for sale at reasonable prices; a 334,335 amp would also be a good choice. IF you wanted to stay with ML. I would love to see a review of the ML-532 stereo amp as well- i would have to say that just from looking at... | |
Audiophile 'Attitude' WHAT IF no one ever took the time and trouble to demonstrate the "current state of the art" components to a serious and inquisitive customer? sure, there might not be a sale that day or even that year, but someday he/she gets settled in an apartme... | |
Cable Upgrade: Too much transparency It's usually too expensive to start replacing components due to some wirethat appears to cause problems, aside from defining "transparency" in this situation. there's nothing wrong with going back to a good basic pair of interconnects as long as t... | |
Audiophile 'Attitude' Once upon a time i was browsing at my favorite local high-end emporium, and the sales manager came over and asked that in a few minutes, a gentleman and his attorney from South America had made an appointment to stop by, and they were "temporarily... | |
Revel M20 Woofer in the not-that-distant-past Dynaudio charged me $300 for a TWELVE-INCH woofer, so for the Revel speakers, that seems to be unreasonably high. i'm no speaker designer but there should be a practical solution to this problem. but at the same time, ... | |
Any bad experience with wilson audio sasha w/p? with regards to this Alexia model being released, i have been wondering for the longest time when the W/P was going to offer an 8 and a 10 inch woofer array. AND NOW with the new tweeter the vision is complete. But at $50,000, it is a shame this s... | |
Any bad experience with wilson audio sasha w/p? At this level and price you should go somewhere to audition the speakers at length. bring some music with you with brass, sopranos, cymbal crashes, etc. to evaluate the tweeters. perhaps Wilson Audio is considering replacing their metal tweeters ... | |
Jeff Rowland or Mark Levinson??? sorry if i was looking under PRODUCTS and couldn't find mention of the 725's.i'm not willing to "hunt" for information on current production items.let THEM make the comparison between the 625 and 725 so it's clear whatthey have put into each model... | |
Jeff Rowland or Mark Levinson??? OH, ONE MORE THING (about the $28,000/PAIR 725 Amps)-i trust the information about the ceramic circuit boards is accurate. i only wishwhen i go to their web site that there was a complete discussion and data about the new amps. instead there's not... | |
Jeff Rowland or Mark Levinson??? once again, it would be more constructive to show where each company has met with great success and which company failed to either make appealing products or had reliability issues or price issues. IMHO it's a TIE, with the exception that Madrigal... | |
Jeff Rowland or Mark Levinson??? I've listened to both and owned both. both provided great sound and both had reliability issues from time to time. Rowland gear looks stupendous compared to almost anything except for Burmester, MBL, and such. Very little out there could compete w... | |

I just heard the Wilson Alexandria XLF's Wednesday Perhaps the issue of making a 3 or 4 piece reference system to separate the extreme-low frequencies into another enclosure and just doing "mid-bass" on-up with the main system will almost HAVE TO BE the only practical solution to this problem (i.e... | |
I just heard the Wilson Alexandria XLF's Wednesday i agree about working around the bigger cabinet or the port issue by adding a subwoofer. Except Wilson should be willing to offer the new tweeter to owners of either model of alexandrias. Even if the crossover frequency to the midrange drivers mig... | |
I just heard the Wilson Alexandria XLF's Wednesday one thing i thought was a little tricky about the article, and that was the inclusion of TWO THOR subwoofers as a part of the audition. the speakers already have a 13 and a 15 inch driver and a larger cabinet to get clean bass (even cleaner/better... |
