| Speaker Spikes - Working Principle @j-wall I tried the Herbies and they didn't work for me. Not bashing Herbies because I have used his other products. I'm more for Isolation instead of coupling based on my suspended wood floors rather than concrete. | |
| LIST ALL YHE SPEAKERS YOU HAVE OWNED THEN TILL NOW! Not a big list but an interesting journey: Dahlquist DQ-10s Kef 107's JM labs Mini Utopia's Avalon Acoustics Ascendents Vienna Acoustics Liszt -current | |
| Speaker Spikes - Working Principle This is my thought when trying to overcome the debate of coupling vs. isolation. My experience of having floor stander speakers on a second story suspended wood floor with carpet was a challenge. I tried spikes, no spikes, limestone pads with spi... | |
| Lifting the Christmas veil Isn't it great when your partner supports this wild and sometimes crazy hobby? My wife has been very supportive of my audio journey and the Esoteric K-03xd player is on it's way this week for a post Christmas purchase. | |
| Suggestions for a streamer only (I have a great DAC) Anyone have experience with the Lumin U2 in comparison to others? | |
| Upgrading cd player Hoping to get my Estoteric K-03XD soon to replace my ModWright Marantz player. We shall see what the differences are. | |
| Service question: Who can service an Esoteric UX-1 CD/SACD player modified by APL NWO 3.0? So here's another twist on the question. Will TAP repair a unit that was not bought in the U.S. and not the original purchaser? I know it's out of any warranty but will they do repairs? | |
| Should I graduate to floor standers or will larger bookshelves suffice? I don't have dog in this hunt. Mikey at OCD Hi-fi has the Fischer & Fischer (stand mount speakers) for sale. He is a dealer and somewhat of the anti establishment audio guy but does have good gear. I heard these on his site and was impress... | |
| Luxman D07x I don’t have a horse in this race only that I’m looking to upgrade my SACD player. Talking with a dealer that carries both the Luxman and Esoteric, he thought the Esoteric K-05xd beat out the more expensive K-03xd and the Luxmans including the D-1... | |
| Herron Audio...Still in business I have had Herron gear for years (around 2002). I have only changed to upgrade to the current models. I have never had any kind of a failure and will keep my 360 reference pre amp and M2 amps for the long haul. | |
| Luxman D-07x I did a demo of the D-07x. I was hoping to be able to take the demo unit home over a Sunday and Monday when they were closed to compare it to my Modwright player. They wanted me to buy one and if I didn't like it I could bring it back in thirty ... | |
| First hand experience (stories about room treatment) needed I would suggest you treat your first reflection points at least on the side walls and also add diffusion. Sometimes the venders want you to add a whole bunch of panels but it can lead to over damping the room. The floor may be your biggest issue... | |
| New Jays Audio flagship cd transport Someone besides PS Audio needs to come out with a reasonably priced and robust CD/SACD transport that will be flexible enough to use a multitude of DAC's. | |
| Surge Protectors @ 69zoso69 well I had the Furman ref 15i for many years. I felt it did a pretty good job, however there was an ever so slight transformer hum if you put your ear near the top of the unit. I subsequently upgraded to the Puritan PMS 156 which I fe... | |
| Surge Protectors Do you really want surge protection or just a method to reach your new 20 amp circuit? The answer may be different. |
