| 25 year old polk 2.3's will I hear an improvement? Thanks for the cogent responses. It looks like I may get to audition a pair of jrs this week and if possible will play with to the wall distance and see what happens. | |
| 25 year old polk 2.3's will I hear an improvement? Chadnliz - thanks for your comment. I looked at Legacy - gorgeous but at 55" too tall for me in front of window placement. I am looking for 45 inches or under. Talked to VAN's son. He states that he has his Van jrs at 12" from back wall and they d... | |
| 25 year old polk 2.3's will I hear an improvement? Thanks Aktchi, sage advice. I talked to Polk Audio today. They were very helpful. What he said was that if I was 95% satisfied with my Polks, then doing crossovers and new cables etc might bring me close to 100%, but if I was 70% satisfied, then a... | |
| 25 year old polk 2.3's will I hear an improvement? Will do thanks | |
| 25 year old polk 2.3's will I hear an improvement? Well, I finally went to Vegas and heard the Sophia's with quality Marantz gear, and the Krell Resolution2's with Krell gear, both in quality listening rooms. Here are my own impressions. Both are excellent.With amazingly clear detail and fast atta... | |
| Do Audiophiles really like music? I am a musician of sorts but when I play I am often distracted by monitoring how well I am playing (piano), therefore I like to relax and listen as someone else performs. But when I go to live concerts I often have to contend with unskilled perfor... | |
| Upgrading? Sophia/Dynaudio/Revel/Genesis 6.1 ? I am looking in the saame price range and besides Sohpia are considering the Krell Resultion 2 if you have a 200 watt plus amp, and the Usher Dancer | |
| Anyone heard of 'Clearview' from Mapleshade?? I have used thier Silclear and like it and have bought about 5 of thier recordings and enjoyed them as well - they do sound a bit more natural than average. No experience with their speaker cable but their are other discussions of the double helix... | |
| Magico Ultimate Loudspoeakers Yup. I am tempted to buy one and sell tickets to audiophiles to listen, only 2,290 tickets at a hundred a pop would pay for these babies. Of course have to hit the lottery for another half mill to do the room and associated equipment. | |
| New to EQ Thanks Eldarford. Sounds like it is worth a try. Do you see any loss of music qualities such as nuance, detail, soundstage etc? Where do you put the device within the audio chain. I go from CD player via digital signal to DAC to pre amp to amp. | |
| Any great places to hear speakers in Vegas? Thanks ElDragon and Dweller for taking time to respond. I will check these out. I am very surprised that there not any ultimate listening stores, given high rollers and hosting the CES.Joe | |
| Any great places to hear speakers in Vegas? I go to Vegas alot. Have taught 35 workshops to help people learn to play dice. The food and shows are superb. But indeed I do not venture off strip very much. Thanks I will check Tweeters becuase I want to hear the Krell Res 2. If anyone wants to... | |
| 25 year old polk 2.3's will I hear an improvement? I am being seduced! Since I haven't heard any of the products except my own, I have been going on the glowing reports of stupendous sound in the reviews and adds. Just for fun I pulled the original Polk reviews from decades ago - same language "Au... | |
| 25 year old polk 2.3's will I hear an improvement? Thanks Lak. Loved your naughty comment, Jaybo. RCPrince thanls for the tip re crossovers. | |
| 25 year old polk 2.3's will I hear an improvement? Merganser - you may be right. So far I have been chicken to do so, since I do not have the personal expertise, but I will probably go listen to at least a few systems that proclaim to be great in good settings and if they blow me away look for new... |
