| Different arm for VPI Scoutmaster What weaknesses have you identified with the current arm? | |
| Monitors for a small room - please help Second the era speakers - I have the peachtree speakers in my office (same company) and I like them so much that I just bought a pair of D4 for the bedroom. Real nice and smooth sound, not finicky at all, I'd be really surprised if you didn't find... | |
| Optimizing Magnepan MMGW On Wall Speakers Ait - Thanks for sharing your experience. In my setup they are about 5-6 feet apart, basically flanking a 37" LCD on the wall, and not near any room corners. Closet placement is unfortunately going to make it tricky to get them near corners. That ... | |
| Optimizing Magnepan MMGW On Wall Speakers Any MMGW users? | |
| Aerial 20T / Eggleston Savoy Which one sounded better to you when you auditioned them? | |
| Dynaudio Contour S3.4 or Dynaudio Focus 360? I was wondering the same thing as Louie.Assuming the room is big enough to handle both, which is the better speaker? Or, in other words, why would the 3.4 sound more smooth than the 360? The Focus has an esotar tweeter, the 3.4 has the inferior es... | |
| B&W 805's VS Quad 12L speakers You'll get different sound from these tweeters. The B&W will be punchier with more bass response, and the Quad will be faster with more transparency.Pick your poison | |
| Gallo 3's vs Silverline Bolero or Sonata III I'm a gallo 3.1 owner... Just as an FYI Gallos and tubes are not a good match, the bass driver likes a lot of current to open up | |
| Dynaudio Contour 1.3SE vs. Contour 140 I love dynaudio, but depending on the setup, they may not be the right speaker for an office system. They don't perform well in the nearfield, they are made to have lots of breathing room.If your office is large, and you'll be sitting 7-8+ feet aw... | |
| B&W 802D vs Vandersteen 5 used The 802D is a fantastic speaker if you have a big enough room for them. If not, there are better choices. If you are not 16 x 17 or so minimum, then I would say pass on the 802D. They really need room to breathe to open up | |
| Rega RB700 vs Michell Tecnoarm? I'd say go for the tecnoarm. It's got a better counterweight, cable, armtube, and adjustable VTA. | |
| Mac 402 or 501 for B&W 802D? did you compare the krell in the same room and same setup? if not, it's probably the room that you are hearing... | |

| Is my room doomed? Pic Can you build some sidewalls? To really nail this, you're going to need to bring in an acoustics expert. With a Rives level 1, just be aware that the only deliverable is a blueprint, the actual results are a shot in the dark. If the results are up... | |
