| Why isn’t more detail always better? I've always enjoyed my system more as the presentation it reproduced became more detailed. Kind of the same as I enjoy the flat screen TV in high definition that I now own way more than my old 25 inch console that was somewhat grainy in compariso... | |
| A list of efficient speakers at ~$5K a pair. I went to the link that @elliottbnewcombjr provided for the Volti Razz and it sounds like they do it all. Big room or small room and high sensitivity and $5500 if no paint or finish . . . but it also sounds like once you've got them you've got th... | |
| Lower power on left channel Good plan. If it doesn't follow the speaker cables, I guess it's the speakers. If it does follow the speaker cables, try swapping pre to amp interconnects, and if it follows them I guess it's in the preamp, and if it doesn't, I guess it's in the... | |
| Lower power on left channel +1 @2psyop . I don't know your preamp, but I have a Cary SLP 05 that uses 6SN7s, and using a specific test tone on a test CD I have used the AC volts setting on my meter to check volts at my speaker terminals, and I have found that depending upo... | |
| Dynaudio C1 or B&W 805 D2 I would think that with the 805s that you would still want a sub. | |
| A list of efficient speakers at ~$5K a pair. I think you're overcomplicated this process. Listen to the music and choose what sounds right "to you". I personally own Tekton Moab's. @jijoh123 , are those going for 5k a pair? | |
| Starting my showroom again I wouldn't worry about saving too many billions for retirement . . . I think the average lifespan for US males has dropped to under 75 years old. | |
| Best Covers I enjoy the way that Patricia Barber and Jacintha both covered Light My Fire. | |
| Is there a vacuum tube summary poster similar to this grape varietal summary Brent Jessee is a vacuum tube seller who has a web site with a comprehensive list and description of numerous different tubes. If you plug in 'Brent Jessee' as a search engine, you will find his site. I'd post a link, but A'gon probably wouldn't... | |
| How to PM someone Maybe it’s because I’m on an iPad and not a computer. That could be, @soix . My computer is ancient (2012 vintge) and I am using windows 7, and there is so much stuff that either doesn't work or only works with great difficulty, so I am actual... | |
| How to PM someone @immatthewj I don’t get any drop-down box anywhere when I click on someone’s username. Where exactly on the page was this drop-down box you found? @soix , on my computer the drop down box appears right next to your username when I click on it. | |
| How to PM someone I actually got a drop down box when I clicked on your user name and I sent you a test with the title of "test." | |
| My high pass filter experiment and a couple of questions Honestly not sure I followed your setup wiring or know your equipment. But I have a few thoughts. @james633 , it is as follows; CDP IN to preamp via balanced (Kimber Silver Streak) interconnects/preamp IN to passive high pass filter via Kimbe... | |
| How do you decide what to listen to? Same old stuff? How do I decide what to listen to? Hmmm . . . let me think . . . I guess when I think I need to listen to a new amp or preamp, I go to the 'amps/preamps' forum of A'gon and read up on what gear folks are listening to & how they feel about it;... |
