| best recordings for a sense of scale Jax2, more great suggestions. Even the samples I could find on line through my lesser phones that I use in the office (AKG 181 as opposed to the AKG 701s I typically use at home)sounded pretty good. I'm not really a headphone guy, but I could tell... | |
| best recordings for a sense of scale Thanks for all of the great responses. Sorry for the confusion with the question. I should have said a sense of space, both large and small. Jax2, though I meant a sense of space, if you have recommendations of good recordings to illustrate a sens... | |
| Tweeters It all comes down to personal preference for the most part. There are several types of tweeters available, conventional dome shaped tweeters are built with different materials that will often influence thier sound. Some higher end manufacturers us... | |
| remote trigger for jeff rowland amp So I found my answer, am posting in case anyone else has a similiar question.The connectors on the back of the Rowlands are actually not for remote triggers they are most likely for a connection to a rowland preamp so the preamp can turn the amp o... | |
| Manchester, NH Hi Honest1,Yes I am familiar with Walters' shop. It is now called Fidelis ( I think they had a joint venture with Ensemble of Nashua for a while when they were located in Salem. Now they are on their own called "Fidelis" in Derry if I am not mista... | |

| Speaks for sensitive, tinnitus-y ears? I would check out small speakers from spendor. Though I don't own them myslef I have auditioned them and they have a very non-fatiguing quality. | |
| DIY speaker enclosure, maybe TL? I have built many ported designs but never a TL. There are boat loads of links out there on the topic. The best speaker book I have found for the beginner is speaker buidling 201 by ray Alden. I would start with that and read the Vance Dickinson b... | |
| Spare change on a speaker cabinet Soo I guess I deserve a bit of hazing for this question. I swear I heard a difference but the owner of the store was over near the preamp at the time so who knows what might of happened. He certainly seemed like a trust worthy guy. It was a pair o... | |
| Hi-Fi Lingo and What we should be listening for I agree this is a great thread. I have become a little disinheartened lately with everyone who just seems to copy what they say in the audio rags. It seems that when stereophile states a system shouldn't "image" becuase it is an artifact of the re... | |
| Organ CDs with really deep bass Texas Dave,Do you know where the The Great Organ at Methuen (Mass.), is located? I live close to Mehtuen and would love to check it out. Also for anyone interested I believe the organ at Woosley hall in Yale is supposed to be able to play a phanto... | |

| Lipinski L707 with ayre V1xe? I heard them in NY city once hooked up to Goldmund amps. I thought they sounded great. Not sure how much of the good sound was from the amp and how much was the speaker but it was certainlly impressive considering the speakers failry moderate pric... | |
| best songs to discern a good system Tim,Glad to hear you liked it. I just listened to "a nod to Bob" samples on Amazon. Sounds like they have some great artists on that one! |
