| Types of speakers to create nightclub style sound? These speakers: http://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/tested-cerwin-vega-cls-215-loudspeaker/ $1K/pair. I believe the current model is the XLS-215. I don't know where else one can get 110lb, full-range speakers with cast-aluminum woofer frames ... | |
| Pass Labs or Devialet Pass, no contest. | |
| Can you tell the difference between Tidal and Spotify Tidal sounds better than Spotify with good recordings. With poor recordings, the lower resolution of Spotify can be preferable. Neither sound as good as Redbook CD IME, but my system doesn't have capability to playback full MQA. | |
| The 5 stages of making a bad audio purchase Get it home, plug it in, WHOA! amazing! Can hardly believe how great it is. The improvements are awesome. One goes online to blog the experience. And add posts to threads of fans of the product everywhere, both conforming one’s own purchase, but a... | |
| Klipsch speaker choices I’ve heard all of the speakers helomech mentions...a couple of ’em extensively, and I still maintain that Heresy IIIs have mids that utterly give up nothing to those brands, and in fact I’ll argue that in terms of lifelike tonal qualities and real... | |
| Klipsch speaker choices @mrdecibel " there is absolutely no good reason in buying a Klipsch speaker "....from the guy who thought, and probably still does ( and not so long ago ), that original Advents were the best there was, regardless of cost....I take what Helo says,... | |
| Klipsch speaker choices (BTW, I also dampened the horns and did A/B comparison with mono source and heard no appreciable difference - just be sure the horns have there gaskets and are screwed tight to the baffle.)Same here. Spent a whole day damping the horns of my Heres... | |
| Upgrade Hint 6? Unfortunately the Topping DX7 Pro employs op ampsSo... it also measures nearly as well as the latest Benchmark and better than some Chords and Myteks. There are many levels of Op-amp quality and the best ones are competitive with top-shelf discret... | |
| Owner of "Anticables" and dealer for Spatial Audio is an amazing guy I wish more dealers were like that. My experience dealing with Spatial's designer, Clayton Shaw, was nothing short of exemplary. He's a true gentleman. | |
| Klipsch speaker choices If you have the space, forget Klipsch and try the Spatial Audio M5 Sapphire. Even their predecessors, the M4 Turbos, were far more refined than any Klipsch speaker I've heard. If you want Klipsch dynamics without sacrificing refinement, that's the... | |
| Upgrade Hint 6? Hah hah haaaaaa $400? Forgive me for not agreeing. Many years ago, I bought a used Adcom DA700 for $250. it was great, I used it for years.. Even returned a $2300 new raved in TAS and Streophile DAC since my $250 toy was just as good. But... Final... | |
| Upgrade Hint 6? You'd be much better off selling your Hint and putting your $$$$ toward separates or a better integrated. That or just enjoy what you have. DACs really don't get any better than what can currently be bought for ~$400. The technology peaked years a... | |
| Is the buyer responsible to cover the cost of a return? He should pay return shipping. I’m curios as to what sort of feedback this buyer has. | |
| Considering simplifying my system... talk me down (or whatever) The Klipsch factory was using a Cayin integrated for good reason, there is no need to look further. I too have an A-88T. It can drive almost any speaker to satisfying levels. Its transparency, detail and soundstaging are on-par with many expensive... |
