| Speakers with the most detailed midrange? (non-ESL/planar) I have to agree with dodgealum, what is the obsession with detail? I think most would agree that digital formats provide more detail than does analogue playback but vinyl generally gets chosen as a better sounding experience. | |
| Speakers with the most detailed midrange? (non-ESL/planar) The Manger Audio P2 loudspeaker was recently released to the public. | |
| Speakers with the most detailed midrange? (non-ESL/planar) twoleftears these BBC engineers intrigue me. I’m extremely happy with my Quad 2905’s but had to have panels replaced since I bought them. I will keep the Quads but eventually want a high end dynamic speaker and am mostly interested in Harbeth. | |

| Clean Power without the drawbacks of Conditioning Filtering. Advice? orpheus, a dedicated 20 amp line may make a difference but it doesn't do anything about the electricity coming from outside. My understanding is that there are variables with respect to the degrees of effectiveness from a dedicated line. Would you... | |
| Classical Recordings from the Golden Age lowrider, I've seen the entire RCO anthology collection for as low as $350.00-ish. The prices may continue to fall, which is what I'm waiting for. That Volume 1 that you cite is pretty hard to find by itself. I also believe that Mengelberg is the ... | |

| Clean Power without the drawbacks of Conditioning Filtering. Advice? If you want clean AC without the disadvantages of using a power conditioner, then I would take a look at the Akiko Audio Corelli or the smaller Minelli. They simply plug into a power strip.https://www.akikoaudio.com/en/products I've been planning ... | |

| Classical Recordings from the Golden Age Thanks Roxy, I have been looking at the Decca mono box set for a few months now and am glad that you give it such high praise. With respect to the Tahra label, they are now unfortunately finito. I do own a few CD's on the Tahra label. |
