| Dynaudio, Harbeth, Penaudio or Sonus Faber I have listened to the Harbeth 30's at friends house who is very picky regarding sound. He listens mostly to classical, jazz and vocal. I thought they sounded very musical and smooth. He was using a small subwoofer from Linn I believe and it blend... | |
| Frustrated with Bonamassa Live CDs It's amazing that so many musicians put out poor recordings. Most of it is due to over compression to the point of distortion. They are hung up in the loudness wars where there is not a distinction between the loud and soft passages. I hear it all... | |
| HELP slight floor vibration auditory vibrate noise this is the debate of trying to couple the speakers to the floor or isolate them. Some would say that for suspended wood floors you should try and isolate them and not spike (couple) them to the floor. | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Matt be sure and run some live acoustical analysis in your room rather than just using the canned mathematical analysis from the different acoustic treatment vendors. It does make a difference. | |
| RMAF - Loudspeakers that you don't want to miss Hmmm a 30% price increase for the Joules? I wonder what cost could have increased that much, or perhaps it's all profit. | |
| RMAF 2014 Observations Philb777 if you have a chance to listen to the Rockport's please post your observations. I have lessor Avalons and have been wanting to hear the Atria's or Avior's, but no dealers anywhere close. | |
| RMAF 2014 Observations Philb7777 have you heard the Rockport speakers? That may be a speaker that can better your Avalon's. | |
| RMAF 2014 Observations I agree with Mapman. The Pacific Northwest is a wasteland as far as shows are concerned. The B&M stores are limited with the same tired brands. | |
| Looking to replace my old Meridian 508.24 Dkonstruction I had an older Sony 999ES Modwright before I got the newer Sony 5400. I had the tray sled replaced and got the parts from Sony. it was several years old at that point. | |
| Looking to replace my old Meridian 508.24 Dkonstruction as a reference I am using the Modwright Sony XA-5400ES with my Avalon Ascendants. I think it's a good match and would work well with the rest of your equipment. | |
| RMAF - Loudspeakers that you don't want to miss I can't attend but hope someone could listen to the Verity parsifal ovation in comparison to the Acoustic Zen crescendo and Magico S3 if showing. I heard that Rockport won't be there so I guess an Atria comparison is out. | |
| perfect placement for your speakers Chris,Yes this is Nordost test Cd. The in phase vocal should be between the speakers. It may not be in front of you but between the speakers and perhaps back of the speakers in the center. The out of phase track is thin sounding and diffused with ... | |
| perfect placement for your speakers Chris,The Nordost test disc actually plays an in phase and an out of phase voice. The in phase voice is in the center with appropriate base. The out of phase voice is thin sounding and kind of floats around your ears. You should be able to tell th... | |
| Jospeh Audio Pearl3 or Rockport Atria Hevac1, I would be interested in knowing what is compelling you to switch from the Verity Sarastro. Is there something that others may do that the Sarastro's aren't doing or doing as well as you would like? | |
| What does music mean to your life/ There is something with music that I don't get with the visual arts. It transcends without distraction. No matter how many times I listen to a piece of music, I discover something new. It could be a small technical observation or feeling I get. Hm... |
