| Do active speakers interest you? Also, let's talk directivity Have you ever seen an old school audiophile tapping his (her) feet?I believe they prefer the warm box colored sound because it makes a good sleep..(The warmth etc. should be in the recording, not the speaker.) | |
| Do active speakers interest you? Also, let's talk directivity Hi, great discussion. @mehtayoungs I will certainly be interested in your future speakers/system. Currently I run three separate systems in my main listening room. Stonehouse pre WW2 :-) but not without severe problems in the lower region which ma... | |
| Are cable recommendations worth anything? I would never blame the cables. | |
| smaller speakers for critical listening? Yes, curious about them too, but got the BBSM-10 monitors as well (in the wardrobe at the moment..) and there is a limit to how many speakers you can have of the same brand :-) Please tell if anybody have some experience from the BBSM-6. | |
| smaller speakers for critical listening? Try to find a used Westlake BBSM-4. Got plenty of "small" speakers for desktop listening, but these will never be put in the wardrobe. Using them with two smallish REL subs for big sound. | |
| Bought some 14/2 “speaker wire” from Home Depot After thousands of similar posts not so sure about mc's hearing. | |
| smaller speakers for critical listening? After a couple of weeks listening and dialling in with subs (ATC C1) I can confirm that Revel Gem 2’s are terrific speakers. The ATC 150 are standing silent...that also goes for the Dutch & Dutch. Pretty easy to integrate with subs while they ... | |
| Have speakers really improved within the last 20 years?? Twenty years is too short time period. Question should be thirty or forty years. My most memorable sound experience comes from stacked Quads 63’s with Kef black boxes passive subs in the late 70’s. Playing Little Feat Columbus live. And miss my Be... | |
| Have speakers really improved within the last 20 years?? A perfectly fine speaker twenty years ago is still a perfectly fine speaker. | |
| Who are your three favorite female singers? To Shelby Lynne I'd add and after some deep thoughtsDawn UpshawEllen Foleythat makes three. Hard competition though.. | |
| Best 40 to 50k used speakers @jderson No point really with your comment. | |
| Best 40 to 50k used speakers @thieliste Well you soon get used to the size...in my eyes they're beautiful. You just have to spend some dollars on appropriate jewels to the wife :-) | |
| Best 40 to 50k used speakers @thieliste I have the passive model 12 and 19 and the active 150 asl. I also have the Thiel 1.7, 2.2, 3.6, Ultima studio 2 and D& D 8c among others. Nothing I'm afraid really in my ears compares to the active 150. Might be because I listen fro... | |
| Best 40 to 50k used speakers The ATC 15 inch woofer produces some magic that is hard to change for anything else. I’ve tried and am trying :-) Then you have the transparent mids. Maybe the highs could be bettered but that's not so important for me. And the possibility to play... | |
| Best 40 to 50k used speakers An (in the room) amplitude and time corrected ATC 150 asl is very hard to beat. |
