| Regrets, I've had a few... The Fools!!! As in "A Night for Beautiful Girls..."? Haven't thought about them in years! Thanks for the memory. | |
| 3-D Movie Is A Metaphor for Non-Audiophiles Next time you go shopping or have a component home, let them hear the AB comparison. My girlfriend has been very adept at picking up on the differences between components when presented in this manner, as has my sister and other friends. Of course... | |
| Best speakers for Pass X150 Although not familiar with the specific models, I have found the times I've listened to Martin Logans, they've been a bit bright in the upper midrange. I have not noticed this with the Magnepan 1.6QR, so you might consider them if you want planars... | |
| best sub? If you've go tthe $$$, check out the Kharma CeSb. I heard it at CES, it osunded fabulous. Check out post above regartding setup. It is active, with a number of adjustments, and only (for a Kharma) costs $8000. I do wonder what it has to do with ce... | |
| Kharma Sub Set Up- Review I heard the Kharma sub at CES and thought it was fantastic. Compared to the rest of the Kharma line, it seems like a bargain. | |

| power amplifiers with ICEpower module I heard the Rowland amps in several rooms at CES / THE. Based on the posts here, I was very much looking forward to them, especially with the Rockport speakers, which I'd never heard before, but which also always receive raves. This room made some... | |
| What's Going On?? Sound changes every night All the above answers are great, but I want to throw another 2 out - (1)maybe the quality of the CDs/recortdings. On a night when your not getting "into" it, try playing a CD that sounded good recently. (2)Another possibility is that you're not ch... | |
| Which Krell for driving subs? Be careful when choosing a pro amp like a Crown. I had a Crown for a home demo. It sounded ok, but had very loud internal fans. The amp was intended for use in a nightclub or someplace where it would be located in an equipment rack, where the fan ... | |
| Has anyone heard the new Audiopax preamp? I second the above post. The Audiopax room was one of my top 3 at CES/THE. It seemed to combine both musical and analytical qualities into one system, a very rare thing. I visited a couple times just to listen. I asked the rep what item I should b... | |
| CES05: Cary Audio Design: comments I liked this room a lot also. Not one of my top 3, but very very close. |
