| Canary DAC KD-2000 any feedback Thanks TeaJay yes I have read it. | |
| Do speaker cables need a burn in period? This thread is a great read! I must say I thought bs on expensive cable until I actually borrowed some and tried a/b for about 15 tests. Well damn if I did hear a difference, very subtle in the bass. Had a Russian friend come over who classically ... | |
| Magnepan 20.7 + Pair of Vandersteen Sub 3 + AR Ref6 Hi Bob, had a single Velodyne 18. Never seemed to integrate well. The sub pair has really helped. And I imagine the crossover topology is a big plus also. | |
| Filling audio rack tubes with sand, metal, grape nutz??? I made some steel stands for my Maggie’s (yes I can weld). Filled tubes with canned foam insulation. Seems to work, foam can be messy tho. | |
| Pieces of music that digital can't get right Compression of the cd sounds like the issue? I left analogue a long time ago due to the artifacts I got with lp’s. However there is a lot of crap cd’s I have bought that sound like they are playing out of a paper sack. Even some HD track 24/96 rec... | |
| Received your Magnepan 30.7’s Yet I am a maggi fan, own 20.7 which replaced Wilson WP7. I demoed the 3.7s and ordered the 20’s unheard. The Maggi's have a unique depth and breadth to them. A stage illusion vs the narrow cone of the wilsons in my room. I recently heard the 30.7 in ... | |
| Factory checkup just before selling... I just had my Krell MCX350 monos serviced, 1 had an issue and both had all capacitors replaced. $2k later they are like new. However I will be selling either these or MC601 monos after I see which ones I like better. The Krell's are now factory sp... | |
| Autoformers, The Benefits in matching amp to speaker Much thanks for the information! Well I am certainly not literate in EE so a bit fuzzy on all of this but I did recently purchase some MC601 monos but have not heard them yet. Is your definition of the issue the same one as Mac has in their design? | |
| Anyone try a SUB THREE from Vandersteen yet? @bstatmeister nope have not heard the 2’s. Just went with David at hifi buys suggestion and backed it up with some research into vandy subs. I did listen to the Vandy 7 mk2 with a pair of the sub 9. Very impressive but should be for 80k. Allen (hi... | |
| Anyone try a SUB THREE from Vandersteen yet? @tomic601 will do! Very excited but may be sometime before they come in. | |
| Anyone try a SUB THREE from Vandersteen yet? I am not sure but rest is new design I think | |
| Anyone try a SUB THREE from Vandersteen yet? I have a pair of Sub 3 on order (with xcrossovers) to integrate with Magnepan 20.7. I am checking with my dealer if I really could use 2 more for the "final" solution. He is checking with Mr V. | |
| Maggie 30.7 Demo Sorry to hear this! I demo'd the 30 last Friday at HiFI Buys Atlanta which is a great store. I have 20.7's and the 30's were better in all aspects. With that said there were no chairs either, Wendell encouraged people to walk around and experience... | |
| The Magnificent Magnepan 30.7 speakers....wait, I don’t like planars! I agree on the short list. The illusion of a life size stage is what makes Magnepan special. These bring you that much closer to the real thing. | |
| The Magnificent Magnepan 30.7 speakers....wait, I don’t like planars! I attended the Atlanta 30.7 demo. Thanks Wendell and HiFi Buys for hosting the event. Auditioning anywhere that’s not my room with my music at my dB level is tough. However the drive sources could not be bettered which were Dan Dagastino pre and m... |
