| Rockport Orion @sounds_real_audio how could you have heard them several years ago? The are a recent release. Unless you’re referring to a speaker other than the Orion. | |
| Absolute Sound's "Reviews" They’re not reviews. They’re marketing material. | |
| Audiphile Press: Am I jaded, experienced, or has it declined? @sfgak best thing I’ve read on this forum. If the creative juices are still flowing, how about one ala Charles Bukowski. | |
| Marten Parker Quintet and the Marten Parker Trio Diamond version...if you could choose ? @garebear I’ve never bought any thing from Paul Manos, but he helped me sell a pair of speakers by providing, free, a pair of jumpers i had lost. Stand up guy. | |
| Should I buy an SME 30/12A for 15K? @nferre66 Sorry, I guess my post was a bit cryptic. I meant that you suggested that he pick up the TT because it might be a scam: "If you decide to buy the SME, make arrangements to pick it up in person. You know what they say- if it seems to go... | |
| Should I buy an SME 30/12A for 15K? @nferre66 Did you read the original post? Hint, "I recently heard a SME 30/12A at the dealer’s..." | |

| All New Songer Audio FIELD-COIL Speakers : Taking Field-Coil Speakers To A New Level ! I’ll pass. | |
| Convincing your local dealer to let you try speakers at home I've had mixed results, mostly positive, but it's been 20 years since I did a home audition. I had a local dealer that I had done business with for a long time, that would let me take home any speakers he had for an extended period, e.g. 1-2 week... | |
| Do the original JM Reynaud Bliss hold up today? It was hard enough getting past "miniature garden of delight" in the review linked above, but as someone who lived in SF for 10 years, his prose regaling the delights of the city prevented me from reading further. The prose is closer to Hallmark ... | |
| How good is the power regulation in a Modwright KWI-200? I remember Dan saying he had good results using Equi=Core. I think it was at a show. I don't know which components where plugged into it. I used an Equi=Tech, but just for my MWI pre's and sources. It makes a noticeable improvement: better res... | |
| Downsizing for Blade 2 and hunting for smaller floor standers I’m lusting after the new WB Act 3zero, as an owner of Vectors. Price is gonna be north of the Blades, I suspect. (Note to self: cross the Adams off my short list.) | |
