| Should I buy a VPI SCOUTMASTER. I OWN 25 RECORDS. Regarding cartridges you will always pay more for MC, no matter what.This is very important for a newbie! It is obvious that MC has very short life span and stylus is not user replaceable. Even if your MC cartridge has reasonable retail price this... | |
| Should I buy a VPI SCOUTMASTER. I OWN 25 RECORDS. Unfortunately that's the only arm that comes with the SCOUTMASTER. JMW MEMORIAL TONEARM. Unipivot offers less friction. Follows the grooves better. Superior sound. Bearings add friction and you lose detail.Someone knows how to read marketing bro... | |
| Acoustic Suspension sound in 2020? Some AN models are ported, some are sealed.IME, there is really no substitute for the acoustic suspension sound in a vented box. Some bass-reflex and transmission-line speakers can play as deep but lack the speed and texture. Open baffles excel at... | |
| Spendor Classic 3/1 vs Graham Chartwell LS6 ? Not too many sealed speakers around anymore. I wonder why that is?I wonder the same. There are advantages to sealed designs that cannot be achieved in a ported box. Porting helps with efficiency but power is relatively cheap these days. | |
| Spendor Classic 3/1 vs Graham Chartwell LS6 ? It's really quite uncanny since I'm looking at spendor classic 3/1 as well. The difference is that I own the Graham ls6.I can tell you without a doubt, ls6 is bad for edm. The bass is just way too boomy, especially if you put it near walls. That i... | |
| Spendor Classic 3/1 vs Graham Chartwell LS6 ? Another speaker you might consider if your space and dealer availability allows, is the Stirling Broadcast SB-88. It's larger than the other speakers you're considering but that will result in more life-like scale. It uses the same midwoofer drive... | |
| Considering replacing my Rogue Audio Cronus Magnum with separates. Interesting point of view. My concern has always been that you cannot match the performance of a really good integrated without equally good interconnects, power cords, cones, rack, fuse, etc. and by the time all this is done you have spent way mo... | |
| Considering replacing my Rogue Audio Cronus Magnum with separates. I would call Clayton for recommendations. | |
| Spendor Classic 3/1 vs Graham Chartwell LS6 ? Haven't heard either of these specific models and I doubt anyone here has experience with both. That said, I have heard other models from both brands and all have been excellent. If EDM is one of your primary genres and you don't have a large room... | |

| Wide baffle speakers are better than narrow HELOMECH has hearing issues and should just buy a Kenwood stack from the 1990's. VANDERSTEENS take weeks maybe months to break in. Setting them up and doing critical listening after a couple hrs break in is nonsense. You didnt even get a chance t... | |
| Wide baffle speakers are better than narrow Richard Vandersteen sure would disagree. I’ve shared this anecdote elsewhere but it’s certainly appropriate here.Not long ago I ordered a pair of new Vandy 2CE Sig IIs based on a positive experience with the 1Cis. Prior to their arrival, I was lis... | |
| Speaker suggestion between $1000 and $2000 please........ Based on your liking the Beyer DTs, I suggest you start with Revel Performa3 or maybe Paradigm Prestige. Also consider Elac Adante AS-61 | |
| Wide baffle speakers are better than narrow Wide-baffle speakers are capable of excellent imaging if competently designed, better than narrow towers in many cases. | |
| need advice on speakers Wharfedale Denton 80ths or Diamond 225s.PSB Alpha P5JBL Studio 530-All well regarded speakers. I bet the Alpha P5s are the most balanced. Thw JBLs are probably most dynamic and low-volume friendly. |
