| Help, my system seem to have slowly gotten " bright" If you didn't make any changes to the gear, placement, etc. maybe it's your hearing. | |
| Food: what does the typical audiophile eat? I eat spam. This post is a great source of nutrition. | |
| Cornwall IV vs. Volti Rival, Razz; Razz v. 1, 2, 3 -- what changed? Don't believe everything said here.The klipsch cabs are not made in China My IVs are 3 years old look and sound amazing. That is on Volti's website. Are you saying that Mr. Roberts has an inaccurate statement on his website? That would be a ser... | |
| Cornwall IV vs. Volti Rival, Razz; Razz v. 1, 2, 3 -- what changed? Just to P.S. my recent post with an interesting video from Crowe: Crowe Speakers Youtube | |
| Cornwall IV vs. Volti Rival, Razz; Razz v. 1, 2, 3 -- what changed? @james633 Thanks! I'll take a look. $16k is a healthy price tag. These are interesting, and $10k: https://josephcrowe.com/products/speaker-system-no-2095 | |
| Cornwall IV vs. Volti Rival, Razz; Razz v. 1, 2, 3 -- what changed? Never heard of Seneca. Interesting. A search on HiFi Shark reveal none for sale nor any in the expired sales. None on the used market. | |
| Cornwall IV vs. Volti Rival, Razz; Razz v. 1, 2, 3 -- what changed? @tds3371 My mistake -- I was looking at the OPTIONS page, on the Volti site. Oops. Much more expensive. Go upgrades!!! | |
| So, a reviewer just said something I need to talk about. The ability to hear the strings and body of the violin, for example, creates a conduit to hear the musician, to resonate with their intent and emotion. The better a system reproduces "sound" the more access I get to personality/feeling/intention. ... | |
| Cornwall IV vs. Volti Rival, Razz; Razz v. 1, 2, 3 -- what changed? @ozzy62 Both vthokie83 doyle3433 reported they had. | |
| Cornwall IV vs. Volti Rival, Razz; Razz v. 1, 2, 3 -- what changed? It seems pretty confirmed that the CW's are great speakers if they are seriously modded. Thanks for the update about that. Some will see this as a great opportunity -- like buying a house with "good bones" and then making a dream house out of it. ... | |
| The Horror @ghasley +1 You don’t need more money, you need more knowledge. A far less expensive system than many in those room set up with care, knowledge -- synergy between components and room acoustics -- can bring you bliss. Your system can be great, but... | |
| Cornwall IV vs. Volti Rival, Razz; Razz v. 1, 2, 3 -- what changed? Thanks for the further updates about varia. I plan on trying Tannoy and, soon, Fyne. I'm excited about some of the lower power amp possibilities this opens up. What happened with all those deleted posts? Weird. | |
| Cornwall IV vs. Volti Rival, Razz; Razz v. 1, 2, 3 -- what changed? @tvad No worries. Appreciate your taking an interest in the question! Thank you! | |
| Cornwall IV vs. Volti Rival, Razz; Razz v. 1, 2, 3 -- what changed? Budget? Budget limit? The budget range was at least implied by the speakers in the initial post -- CW's are around $7k new and Rivals are $16k. That's pretty clear. Put otherwise, I am not interested in spending $20k on speakers, but I am willing... |
