| Do you ever use the balance on your pre amp? Alhtough my room is asymmetrical, I don't need the balance control for normal listening. I do find it tremendously helpful for trouble-shootong when something is not quite right in the system, or for when someone is in the adjacent room near the r... | |
| Talon-New owner-NO customer service Robyatt has done much to aggravate in this situation, but in all fairness, he was not looking for warranty or free service, but reasonably priced serice. As Talon / Rives was not the manufacturer of the amp, they were not able to provide this. The... | |
| Anyone tried to get customer service from TALON?? Venus...Groundhog Day...Computer warranty...Too funny!!!Laughing out loud, for real! Mouth open, sound coming out and everythingI had logged on to say bad things to Robyatt (I saw his post at work, but couldn't respond), now I'm grinning ear to ea... | |
| Talon-New owner-NO customer service Cleaned up - You are absolutely right that this is the condition of the market right now. I do not think that it is right, though. How did this guy get these speakers? Did Von Schweikert sell them to him, make his fair profit? If this is a one tim... | |
| Rhode Island stereo shops Check out sound Images in Westport, MA. They sell AtmaSphere, Art Audio, Ref3A, Conrad Johnson, Soundlab, Accuphase, Rega, some funky German horns... Very nice people, too. They are just a town or two from Newport. I was surprised to see where the... | |
| Talon-New owner-NO customer service The response from Rives clears up the big question, namely, the $1600 repair cost (much of which is labor to rework the cabinet). This makes sense. The remaining question is if it's possible for someone (other than Talon/Rives)to provide / replace... | |
| Talon-New owner-NO customer service I have to disagree with the notion that manufacturers have no obligation to fix gear for a second owner. What if Toyota or GM had this policy? The idea that after the original owner is through with something, it becomes a throw-away is morally out... | |
| First round of auditions disappointing For the qualities listed, you might like the Talon Audio Hawks. They are very fast, detailed, have good bass for their size, and do like to play loudly. They seem to thrive on high power amps (which you have). If you like lots of deep bass, you mi... | |
| My brand new TT was wired out of phase ... You could try calling them up, hopping mad, and see if you could get them to make a house call. If they sold it to you new at full retail (or close to it), this doesn't seem too unreasonable a request. However, I wonder if you would get any sound ... | |
| Audio Icon/Idol - Who would you like to meet? Eve Anna Manley. When she writes for her website, she comes off as such a character, I'd like to find out what she's like in person. If she's like the way she writes, she could be tremendously obnoxious, or tremendously witty, and I'd like to know... | |
| Your top 3 comedians Rodney Dangerfield "My doctor wanted to do a thorough exam. He asked for a urine sample, a stool sample and a semen sample. So I left my underwear on the table and went home"Joan Rivers (Esp. "What becomes a semi-legend most" I don't know what she... | |
| What were they thinking about?? Just turn the plug around, plug it in the other way, see if that helps. | |
| Pre amp for Pass Aleph 3 I had good luck wiht a Classe CP35. There was a version with a phono stage. | |
| Warm and Detailed S.S. Amp? Pass Aleph. Or new first watt aleph series, perhaps. If you read between the lines of Pass' web site, they indicate the aleph series was warmer sounding than the X series, which is the reason for introducing the .5 series. I've heard that the Alep... | |
| Alcohol + Vinyl = Disaster... Cw, you've started a story, now you must finish it. Inquiring minds want to know. |
