| Ayre MX R vs Pass Labs X350.8 Hi Mikey. What did you decide on? Did you ever get feedback from others? | |
| Speakers that are very accurate sounding but don't produce an emotional connection. ;-) !!!!!! | |
| Speakers that are very accurate sounding but don't produce an emotional connection. all this chatter. it renders emotionally involving visions of sugar plum fairy-shaped transducers floating about tethered to helium balloons and candy canes. flitting and dancing, hither and yon, sprinkling teensy gems of excitement and wonder and... | |
| Just moved to an apartment need speaker suggestions I was referring specifically to the ProAc response 2.5s above, but I believe other ProAc models employ a similar design. | |
| Just moved to an apartment need speaker suggestions Funny it took me until now to realize this: I’ve been researching DeVore Gibbon 8s for the last 3 weeks, and often came across an opinion that these are right for small rooms. I think the point there is that the bass isn’t big enough to really cal... | |
| Silver Wire Understood. You are providing good info for the OP to use and decide on his own. Always worthwhile to do so in my opinion. But I think there needs to be a bit more detail wrt the 12 gauge experiment, in particular the size and shape of the wire an... | |
| Silver Wire lcherepkai -Maybe I'm not following you, but it seems you've replaced 18 gauge with "doubled-up twisted runs" of 16 gauge wire and you noticed a difference. It seems you've proven that this lower resistance and likely lower inductance has improv... | |
| Just moved to an apartment need speaker suggestions Telling the OP that he/she NEEDS efficient speakers is just way too subjective an opinion and ends up limiting the choices. It's also confusing and therefore possibly counterproductive for the OP because it's in direct conflict with many of the go... | |
| Just moved to an apartment need speaker suggestions OK. I understand that you're talking about your experiences here. I also assume you mean to include only passive speakers in your comment, because, for instance, Vandersteen Quatros are not efficient and yet they would be excellent for the OP's ro... | |
| Just moved to an apartment need speaker suggestions maple-your comment about bass presence at low volumes makes good sense to me since the OP did state he will play "softly".your "efficient speakers" comment however is so general and unsubstantiated that it’s puzzling at best. can you elaborate wit... | |
| What's Up with Magnapan at Shows? I went to two Magnepan exhibits last year in Newport. The first one was the best presentation I heard at the show. The host was surprisingly rude, pushy and had a ridiculous if not pretentious manner about him when presenting music. When asked abo... | |
| Silver Wire dragu- I realize I misread your question a bit, but maybe i lucked out by still answering a related question. sorry. i'll revise a bit ...If I was doing what you're doing, i wouldn't care if it's copper or silver. I'd go with the wire that has th... | |
| Silver Wire First, you need to know how to remove solder and resolder well enough to proceed.I won't answer your question directly, because mine will be just another opinion. I will say you can't disregard the quality of the wire you're replacing. You want to... | |
| Just moved to an apartment need speaker suggestions Another spot-on post from larryi. It should probably be stated (if it wasn't already) that stand mounted monitors, even small ones, does NOT imply a lack of bass energy above oh ... let's say 60hz to be safe. With my Joesph Audio Pulsars it was mo... | |
| Just moved to an apartment need speaker suggestions As a fellow Magnepanatic, I want to emphasize advice from larryi who wrote " If you have the room to allow the Maggies to be placed correctly (well away from the wall behind the speaker), it would be a very good apartment speaker".I will go furth... |
