| Opinions Req. Ultimate Ears UE-11 Pro Ear Phones Hi Clipsal,I have no experience with the UE products, but I run the Shure 530s while traveling, and feel no need whatsoever to upgrade.You could try these first for a lot less moneyI run the 650's at home | |
| Gallo vs. Quads ESL 57 Hi, Back to the original question...Whether you prefer the Quads to the Gallos as the better "overall" speaker can only be determined by listening.Objectively, you'll be gaining some things by moving to the Gallos, and also losing others. You'll g... | |
| Which speaker did TAS put in place of Gallo 3 Joekapahulu - Hi, just out of curiosity, what do you feel the other players are at $3k?Rolloff - As time goes on, newer products will push older ones off of the magazines' lists. This doesn't mean the older products are "less good", it's just that... | |
| looking at a Pre-Pro Anthem D2 vrs B&K REF 70 After going through 3 pre-pros, I've ended up with the D2, and I love it. It is one of the few components that I have no desire whatsoever to even consider changing.The automatic room correction is amazing. This is where it charts each speaker's f... | |
| Subwoofer beginner question? If a 12" sub is measuring the same frequency response in a room as a 15" sub, how would the bigger one "pressurize" the room better? | |
| Help a Newbie. Considering Usher Be 718's Can you bring the Ushers home and try them out? That way, you won't need to guess what they sound like in your home before buying them. Most quality dealers will let you do this. | |
| Floorstanding Speakers - 12'x14' Room With that sized room, I would stick to the sub + monitor system. That way, you can optimize the speakers for imaging/staging/etc, and place the sub where it measures the flattest. | |
| Whic CD player would you pick and why What do you find lacking in your Moon? | |
| McIntosh MC-275, MX-110 preamp and La Scala's?? Hi,Interesting writeup.You didn't really explain in what sense the Dynaco sounds better than the Mcintosh.Can you maybe go into a bit more detail about how the Dynaco sounds different than the Mcintosh, aside from "better" ?Thanks,Goatwuss | |
| Any feedback on Rythmik Audio Subwoofers? This is a fantastic sub. I use one with the GR Research driver, and it is much tighter and faster than the $4000 velodyne dd15 that it replaced. | |
| Anyone use a sub with Reference 3A DaCapo i Hi,The De Capos are smallish monitors, and as such, will have severely compromised bass performance. If you want real bass (realistically extending to 30hz or so) than a sub is an absolute requirement.For lower budget, I would look into the Rythmi... | |
| Esoteric Players: No Digital Input. WTF? Tarsando - I could not disagree more (about digital out making the most sense). Why would I buy an expensive player like the Esoteric, and choose to bypass the excellent dac that is built in? Alternatively, wouldn't it be great to be able to use t... | |
| CDP's being dumped for hard drive driven units? Any Iphone users out there?The Iphone can now be used as a remote for your Itunes library. Now, you don't even need to use your computer or complicated "music server" system to pick your music. You can do it with your finger on your phone. | |
| new small room, big change Hi,Regarding Dynaudio... they are GREAT speakers, but in my experience, even with their monitors, they need BIG rooms. Not necessarily cathedral sized, but def. quite a bit bigger than 12 foot on any dimension.Their strength is that they have very... | |
