| Question about speaker angle As others have said, entirely depends on the speaker. But keep in mind in order to get a sound stage, or a wider sound stage… Sometimes you have to reduce the tow in. I had such Cornwallis before I had Harbeths, and the Harbeths are totally differ... | |
| Large speaker recommendation If you have the space, Cornwall 4s have taken the Klipsch legacy line into new territory… they are worth a listen. Strings, guitars, and horns are fantastic. Voices are very good as well. | |
| most beautiful (looking) speakers Vintage, but as beautiful as anything today…the Tannoy Little Gold Monitors 🤓 | |
| The panic selling of tube audio had begun. Yes, seems silly to be talking about tubes when people are being murdered by a mad man who has something against “oysters and gender freedom”. Suspect someone will put a bullet in his head at some point…and the world will be a better place. but b... | |
| Is it me? Will I ever be satisfied? So, and again not being critical, but having been a person who thought blue sound is good sounding… I would start there. I see you do have a turntable as well, so you can compare the two sources. But both the streaming function and the DAC found ... | |
| Is Old Music Killing New Music? I disagree with the premise of the article as well. I’m just about 65, and I started streaming about two years ago. There is so much great music being produced right now that the old stuff, is really starting to seem very old to me. I would say pr... | |
| To Buy or to DIY, here is my question 2nd having a good look at Troels Gravesens site… lots of experience there. Check out also builders projects completed. Lots of great ScanSpeak and Seas projects. I’m seriously considering the loudspeaker 2. I would say these are moderately hard wo... | |
| Vote Your Ranking -If you have an opinion on this digital subject 2 with the proper streamer- Lumin u1 proper DAC - Denafrips a decent cable between the two- audioquest diamond usb | |
| BIG difference Tidal vs Amazon Music I recently switched my digital cable between my streamer and my DAC, from a mid-level cable to the top of the companies lineup. What a difference, contrary to what people say, the digital cable plays a big part. I stream Tidal, And everything soun... | |
| Inexpensive speaker cables: any experience? I’m using Duelund 12 g double runs. It gives a very natural presentation… | |
| Bluesound Node 2021 DAC - I sold my Denafrips Ares II Well I did the same thing, except with a Venus to Denafrips and a couple year-old note 2i … There wasn’t really any comparison for me the Denafrips was superior. | |
| Can it get better? I agree with a person who says it’s not about integrated versus separate component. If you want tone and texture, I would look at some of the more powerful tube offerings That are available these days. Cayin Makes some very beautiful amps, integra... | |

| What Is So Special About Harbeth? Harbeths are very precise, a little bit too relaxed at some points, but when you have them well placed, away from the wall and not toed in too much, they can be quite fantastic. However, I have had as much fun or more with Klipsch Cornwalls, somet... | |
| Your method for discovering great music. Every Friday Tidal has new cuts for me, I don’t alway find a new great artist, but likely every second week. Streaming is fantastic. New this week, Anne Ash. A hi end streamer is Critical to any audio system for me. |
