| New MOFI speaker (Andrew Jones) It was the Heretic AD612. What a difference. I don't like using the term "musical" when describing a speaker's sound but it truly fits. But this speaker is much more expensive than the SP 10 so it's not really fair. | |
| New MOFI speaker (Andrew Jones) I heard the new speaker at CAF. Bass was tight and punchy. I did think the highs could sometimes be a bit much. I don't want to say bright but some of what I heard edged into that territory. Perhaps it was the recording or the associated equip... | |
| Shinjitsu Audio OK. The speaker I’ve been reading about on your website is the Hiro 6.5. It really looks interesting. | |
| Which LS3/5a? I’ve owned a pair of Falcon silver badge LS3/5a for about five years. They’re the only LS3/5a I’ve owned so I can’t compare them to other versions. I can tell you they’re wonderful speakers. I use them in a smaller room near-field set up. They... | |
| Shinjitsu Audio As larryi mentioned it would be great to be able to hear these speakers at a show like CAF 2022, especially since I'll be attending and am interested in the speakers. I do understand that there's time and expense involved in exhibiting at these s... | |
| Subs And The Downstairs Neighbors I used to wonder if putting a floor standing speaker on spikes, as opposed to no spikes, reduced the amount of noise transmitted to the floor. Living in an apartment with neighbors below is what prompted that thought. I think the answer is no. ... | |
| Ordered a Willsenton R300 whitestix - that's great news. Hopefully this will be one of those equipment changes that results in a real improvement, as opposed to one of those that over the course of time proves to be different but not necessarily better. I've had my share... | |
| Ordered a Willsenton R300 I also think the R300 has a fairly good chance of working with my JMR Offrande speakers. A few years ago I built the 8wpc Nelson Pass AMP Camp Amp. The Offrandes were not happy with this pairing. They sounded decidedly underpowered. However, I... | |
| Viva Tubes I've ordered from Viva. No problems at all. I'd buy from them again. | |
| Ordered a Willsenton R300 I've ordered the Willsenton R300 as well. Like whitestix I ordered through Amazon because of the ease of return if needed. I've never owned a 300B amp. This seemed like a good opportunity to satisfy that curiosity with minimal risk. It will be... | |
| Best Examples Of Cymbal Decays On A Recording "Kind of Blue" - Jimmy Cobb's cymbal strike after the bass intro of "So What". | |
| NY audio show 2022 I thought it was a good show. I agree with the Harbeth/Luxman comment. That room just didn't work for me. They did play a 45rpm version of the Doors " LA Woman" that was outstanding. The rooms I really liked were the Volti/Border Patrol and th... | |
| Which pair of speakers changed your Hifi life? Spica TC-50. | |
| Ojas? I was interested in the Ojas stand mount horn speaker. They never seem to be in stock. Or maybe they just sell out really fast. | |
| Enleum AMP23-R buyer beware! What prevents Enleum from telling customers that they're sorry for the delay but that it's out of their control or words to that effect? I don't understand how you can justify the complete lack of communication. |
