| Tekton Double Impacts To call me a fool because I have an opinion based on what I’ve read and seen seems to say a lot of the people who feel threatened by my post. As I’ve strolled through various post’s relating to the OP it’s apparent there’s a certain number of memb... | |
| Loud popping noise with Classe Audio SIX pre-amp in phono MC mode Sounds like a cap is going bad. | |
| Odyssey Kismet Reference series. Yes, Klaus does ask you to measure your voltage and sets the amps to your voltage, but he also sets current bias to your speakers. The range for that is 18-28 millivolts. I owned them for 3 years and glad they’re gone. | |
| The Truth About Power Cords and there "Real" Price to Performance With cables the real price to performance is based on what you’re willing to pay.Let say you have a $1000. Power cable and you really like it. Most people would say you’re crazy to pay that much for a power cable. For yourself you know to get what... | |
| Odyssey Kismet Reference series. Just to add my 2 cents worth, I owned them ( Kismet Extremes) for 3 years. They’re very quirky amps. Need to be biased to each speakers sonic signature. Even when this is done there’s no guarantee they’ll perform at their best. Here’s the kicker, ... | |
| OMG, just removed my speaker grills and the sound just opened up to a new level! Lowtubes, i’ve Been in the hobby for many years and yes removing the grills is quite elementary for any audiophile. My point was to the impact this made to the overall sonic improvements. I’ve owned over 50 hi-end speakers and have probably remove... | |

| OMG, just removed my speaker grills and the sound just opened up to a new level! toddnkayaAny decent wife or girlfriend would never be honest enough to allow myself to be fooled into believing they’re actually placing the grills back on when doing this experiment while blindfolded. | |
| Audio Desk Systeme - Vinyl Cleaner – Repair of Water Pump Failure I’ve had several people I know try to get these units serviced. They’re not serviceable and the only way to recover some of your losses is to reinvest more money into a new one at cost. I wouldn’t touch this product; even the latest version which ... | |
| Can speakers sound worse during break-in period? To all the naysayers I must say I’m sorry your mind is made up and if it can’t be measured on paper it doesn’t exist. I let my ears tell me what the truth is not a set of numbers that try to explain why it’s impossible to hear something if it can’... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Sounds and looks like a good speaker for the money. I’ve not heard this speaker, but based on what I’ve heard from reading this thread it seems to have a cult like following. In real world discussions I’m sure there would be as many detractors as ... | |
| Class D is just Dandy! Another thought on class D and design. One must also consider longevity of parts used and future serviceability of current digital parts implemented in its design. Here today gone tomorrow world of digital parts and design would make me seriously ... | |
| Can speakers sound worse during break-in period? Here’s a progress report on my speakers break-in process. I’m happy to report after 100hrs ( XLO burn in disc track 9 ) things have improved. They’re starting to open up, driver integration is better and sounding much fuller. They still need more ... | |
