What is your favorite type of tweeter? I second the Essotar tweeters in the Old Sonus Extrema's and The expensive Dynaudio's. Those and the inverted one's in the Wilson's and JM Lab's Eutopias are veryy good. But I'd have to say I like the Essotar's for dome's, best overall (however ha... | |
Thiel 7.2 vs Hales T-8 opinion needed I would say that these speakers offer slight differences in sound, that one could say they favor over another, in different respects. I wouldn't say you were necessarily "upgrading" going this route. But would depend on musical tastes, listening l... | |
One Fathom 113 or Two SVS PC-Ultra Subwoofers Well, not having heard the JL's, my first thought is "Nice Ad's" in the magazines. They at least talk a good schtick!When I saw their ad for the new F212 sub, my impression was that they were presenting it like Nasa had designed it, Ferrari had bu... | |
DENON AVP-A1HDCI vs. Anthem Statement D2? Very good! I very much look foreward, Kr4, to a comparison, your thoughts, and your overall assessment. I, for one, like where the whole DSP room correction, and related, is going! Room acoustics is something that must always be considered in any ... | |
DENON AVP-A1HDCI vs. Anthem Statement D2? Yeah...def...definitely no HD audio processing on the Anthem...yeeeeah. Def...def...definitely no 1.3a or DTS Master audio on da...da....da...D2 processor...yeeeeah. Yeeeah. Yeeeah.Um, Um definitely no 7.1 channel input either... yeeeah...yeeeah..... | |
DENON AVP-A1HDCI vs. Anthem Statement D2? I've never heard the ARC-1 processing. Nor, have I heard reviews or comparisons to Audyssey's tech (there's a reason it's in so many receivers and pre's today!).I'll look into that. Thanks | |
DENON AVP-A1HDCI vs. Anthem Statement D2? I suspect it will do about what's expected from Denon - warmth, good dynamics and weight, slightly shy top end (better air and extension on others), and just descent with analog sources. The Audyssey and HD codecs, of course, will be a plus, and c... | |
One Fathom 113 or Two SVS PC-Ultra Subwoofers My first default is two quality subs, even in stereo! The benefits in efficiency, distortion reduction, possible room-mode smoothing, and flexibility makes this avenue a plus in my mind! Plus I don't like spending $3k for a sub, when I have have t... | |
Best SSP - Upgrade from Integra DTC 9.8 Um that Sim AV processor looks quite interesting - although a bit more money than the Integra range, for sure.Sim has always made some pretty nice sounding stuff, if much better than mass-marketed mid-fi, like Rotel. Would like to see some reviews... | |
Should i changes my sub to Fathom f112 or f113 For the record, I've some experience with the Supernova MKIV 15" sub. They are indeed excellent all around sub's, with plenty of output! I haven't run into a situation where I could bottom one out on their own, personally. As for music, not bad ei... | |
Vandersteens and room acoustics I not only checked phase of speaker connections, but tried working the woofers in good over a few days. Still, the old 2c's had much more balanced and solid bass! The newer Sig's, while better in every other way, were simply wimpy in the bass! I h... | |
speaker recommendations for a 12 x 12 room? ok then 'Kinesis, tell me you didn't plagerize all those comment points you made earlier?! - LOL!!! | |
Has anyone heard the Meridian F80 Ya know, I've sold Meridian's products in the past. And, overall, their amps, pre-amps, and digital sources - I felt - were otherwise pretty descent gear!! I never have been a fan of their speakers for some reason though. They always sounded rathe... | |
Should I upgrade from B&W CDM 7SEs to Quad 22L2s Whatever you do, if you want to learn how to make great sound from your system, I strongly suggest that you only change one variable out at a time! - otherwise you'll never know where you're really at!I'd say that the biggest change (besides acous... | |
static/electrical interference sounds from speaker Funny, while I'm looking at this post, I noticed my little computer speakers were making the same noises - lots of crackling and static sounding. I moved some wires off the speaker wires and power cord, and the noises are all gone. It's the same k... |
