| Speaker Cable Burn in Companies @aniwolfe Well played. | |
| Is this a disgrace to the Industry ? +1 @kapa11 If you love vinyl you would want to hear it played on your table with tonearm and cartridge of choice, yes? Agree with martykl that it is a lifestyle product not one to be fancied by vinylphiles. | |
| Speaker Cable Burn in Companies How about getting in a Purist Audio Design System Enhancer disc to not only burn in the speaker cables but damage.your system to boot. One hour playing that disc is designed to yield 5 hours of music playing burn-in.Gotta pay Benjie 1st!! | |
| Problem with CD Baby cds Do you know if they are production CDs or was the music burned on to the surface? I ask this because some players are not as friendly to burned CDs. | |
| Original Vandersteen Model 3 I doubt that RV would want or be able to upgrade a pair of older 3s to current spec. Almost every aspect of the 3s has been changed over time as all of RV's speakers are of an evolutionary nature. If he could do it, it would no doubt cost more t... | |
| Looking at a new non-SACD player, but still own lots of SACDs One important point I forgot to mention. Read and re-read threads on A’gon in which Modwright was discussed. Everything is positive and consistent! Many of the same adjectives are used to characterize the "sound" of the Modwright Signature Truth m... | |
| Looking at a new non-SACD player, but still own lots of SACDs @tpreaves +1! I am listening to Rachmaninoff's Symphony #2 right now on SACD. Just lovely. Listened to of all things Yello's Toy CD this afternoon and the joint was jumping'.@meiatflask I've had my Marantz SA 8005 Modwright Signature Truth play... | |
| Looking for speaker ideas. My experience buying the Vandersteen Treo CTs this past summer taught me to have patience with break in. They kept opening up and revealing finer details for several weeks. The last driver to reach its apex was the carbon tweeter. Ride cymbals ... | |
| Looking for speaker ideas. @bsmg Do those speakers come broken in? If not, two weeks is all but useless as most drivers and crossover components will take 1-2 weeks to break in. Not much time to really listen to them at their best! | |
| Looking for speaker ideas. @wolf_garcia Speakers have rights too! :) | |
| Power cord replacement suggestions @chrisr Some manufacturers DO recommend aftermarket power cords. I received such a recommendation within the last couple of weeks from a well known audio manufacturer. Your statement is a bit too general. | |
| Vandersteen +1 @geph0007 I loved the fabric tweeter in the 2C as well. Although the model 3s had greater treble detail, it came at the cost of an upper midrange emphasis and an unnatural "crispness" in the treble". Splashy cymbals with a "plasticy" sound. | |
| WORST Experience Ever in Dealing With Woodbridge Stereo NJ Not to get off target, but I would be interested to know if as czarivey says that I have just had "great luck" or if he is "snake-bit" as regards results with UPS. Please share your experiences with "big brown". | |
| WORST Experience Ever in Dealing With Woodbridge Stereo NJ @czarivey "UPS you can only use for products such as golf or baseball balls, bowling balls, dumbbells, tires and steel pipes.Other than that probability of destruction is far beyond 50% and close to 100%."Hyperbole!! I just received my Modwright T... | |
| WHAT'S UP WITH MARANTZ? @nonoise No worries. I barely noticed the mention of the post's deletion. |
