| Opinions, Is this better for the Members? Dont like the current feedback system. Should of asked us active Agon users what we think before they went live! Simple fact is the current system is to long and involved and feedback is not getting posted at the rate it should or used to. Old sys... | |
| Question on preamp matching with Wright 3.5 2A3 am The Wright 12WPL/WPA is a great match and must with George Wright amps. Both cut from the same cloth. Fast, detailed and see through clarity. Very nice sound together. Glad I took the plunge!Bill | |
| New Cain & Cain IM Ben Fostex/double horn - help Just wanted to post on the joy this system is giving me. I am hearing Van Morrision for the first time in my living room. Ha! The combination of Wright Sounds amps, preamp and the Cain's is magical as I have read on AA.I want to encourage anyone w... | |
| what speakers for 4k or less new or used Merlins are good, but I have heard better for the money including Silverline Sonata II's and III's. Usher speakers also better the Merlin including the 6381 for $3400 new. The Merlins are up to $10,000! Wow! BTW I have owned the VSM's twice as wel... | |
| Best CD Player for 800-1500 Used Mnaudio. Your right on the money with your system. I am convinced it is the best system for the money on the planet. Perhaps the Act dack would better the CJ. I have owned both and both are very, very good. You know what you say!Bill | |
| New Cain & Cain IM Ben Fostex/double horn - help I am not Terry of Cain & Cain, but I think the retail is $4500 - $5500 depending on finish. I would contact Terry for details on this new speaker. He is great to work with.Most helpful and not at all pushy.Bill | |
| New Cain & Cain IM Ben Fostex/double horn - help The IM ben is brand new and not on the site as yet. It is a smaller version of the I Ben. Terry feels it is his best effort yet. Larger soundstage and better imaging as compared to the Abby's. yes, much better bass than the Abby's also.Bill | |
| New Cain & Cain IM Ben Fostex/double horn - help Boa2, Yes, I use the low gain setting also. The Fostex HP sound reflectors work great. I put two of them in each lower bass horn and 2 in the top horns also. No need for Dakron and these dont deaden the sound like Dakron.I also am running an Origi... | |
| New Cain & Cain IM Ben Fostex/double horn - help Here is an update. After reading yours post and talking to Terry at Cain & Cain this is what I have done. 1) Changed my seating position as well as speaker placement.I am now 14 feet back from the speakers and the rear wall is 1 foot behind me... | |
| New Cain & Cain IM Ben Fostex/double horn - help Terry is wonderful and I will continue to talk to him. I wanted to ask other Cain owners also as they have experience in various home/room settings etc. Gmood! makes a great point and I am starting to think he is right.When I stand back against th... | |
| Best CD Player for 800-1500 Used My Tosh only had the famed "Vinnie mod" and I am sure not as good sounding as the RAM mod. My only concern is spending lots of $$$ on what is a $45 player in terms of longevity. At $45 when it breaks down - get another!Bill | |
| Best CD Player for 800-1500 Used Bluenose is right as I have owned a Tosh with the mod's. Very good for the money. Still found the Ack dac better to my ears.Bill | |
| Best CD Player for 800-1500 Used I got my Tosh 3960 at Best Buy new for $45 new. You can get them used on Ebay for $30. I know for this little money many of us audio nuts say " right grannyring your out of your mind and must have tin ears". Not! Just buy the original Ack dac and ... | |
| Best CD Player for 800-1500 Used Buy one of the used Ack dac's for $300 and mate it with a $45 Toshiba 3960 DVD player and you will have a CD player far above what you expect and as good as any mentioned above. I have owned the Arcam, Opus 21,AA Prima, Consonance 2.0 Reference an... | |
| Question on preamp matching with Wright 3.5 2A3 am Thanks guys for your comments. I actually purchased the IM Ben's that are a new double horn from Cain & Cain. They are said to be another level or two above the Abby. I also purchased the Baily sub from Cain & Cain. I have decided to go wh... |
