How can anyone want more......Just a very happy listener.
N80, you're right. Whatever floats your boat, is right. It's all subjective cause no two ears are the same. (After processing of course)  It's just so fun and interesting to hear, read, and listen to what other folks find so intriguing about other...

Shadow, right on.

Mr D, you've been helpful with some of your previous posts. I have vintage gear and have had ADS floor standing speakers since 1983. Figured I'd never change out. But, I finally bought LaScala II's, with no audition. I've wanted them for over 50 y... 
What improvements did you hear in going from entry level to high end Audio?
Noromance; I really like your definitions and your journey course. That defines for me the essence of the music. I just had a 4 hour listening session with my wife and our favorite red wine. We marvel at all the nuances of our private concerts in ... 
Should I recap my speakers? If so who can do it?
Just read this thread and I gotta say it's really cool that grannyring and timlub chimed in to help the OP out. It's a testament to the the "brotherhood" of those that are so well versed and experienced to help out a fellow audio appreciator in ne... 
Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III
Phil, very interesting. I just saw a LaScalla II review, albeit by someone who sells them, and he commented that the II is much improved over previous. They are beasts and take a room that can accommodate. At least the top tweet and mid are remova...

MrD, crack me up. I would say it's never about me.....my wife would disagree !!  All good, banter is good and I'm picking up the morsels and digesting. Oblgny, thanks for checking on 3a's. Thot they were still making em. That's a good thing. Wonde...

TDK was my favorite. I still have my splicing kit with the splice tape and all. Have TEAC reel to reel still, in a box though.

Tomic, so what is it with Sound Anchors?  I have not had the advantages of the dynamics of stands explained to me. "Is it real, or Memorex?" (U old enough for that one?) The anchor must push it out at least 8-12" yes? 
Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III
Roxy, was not familiar with the CF-4 Klipsch. Seems there's a 1,2,or 3 edition. So even within a production model there can be variations of sound and preferences. This also appears to be the case with Vandys as upgrades are made but no real diffe...

Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III
Oblgny, congrats on the Vandy 3A's. Were they on your radar for a while? And had you auditioned before you bought?  I have to go back to their website cause I thought 3a Sigs were still being made. Saw a pair for $2600+300 shipping so it seems hig... 
Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III
Tomic, right on !! I thought your man Bruce at S Unlimited didn't have Klipsch. Great u auditioned them. Appreciate your taking your homework seriously. I'm just not ready to pull the trigger on them for a $300 audition based on my reading from fo... 
Your Side by Side Experience With Best Vintage vs Newer Expensive Hi Tech Speakers
Michael Green, you've got my interest. I'm here to learn and confess my ignorance of the "tuning" you speak of and no idea what the "recorded code" is. I am teachable though, so bring it on. When you said tuning I thought of my 5 band built in equ...
