Wold like comments on the Avalon Compas Jeff Fritz is about the only review worth listening too these days. He is the only one I ever see saying he likes one speaker better than the other. No dancing around the question. | |
Best Speakers for 10' x 12' room? If you have found the duettes bright I would blame the front end. I demoed them one time years ago and remember they had a warm tone, i heard them in musical fidelity equipment. I do think they are over priced though. If you have the budget you ma... | |
Damaged B&W 6 1/2 I would make sure the current model's screw pattern matches up and if so I would just use those drivers. Yes they could have small differences but really the speaker is broken now anyway. Maybe check to see what the oldest model they have in stock... | |
Anyone tighten up drivers occasionally I would leave them alone. If you do need to adjust them get a torque wrench and start on the lightest setting an work your way up. | |
rockport Avior versus salon 2 "The fact that you get a hand-tuned speaker and Andy Payors fanatical quality control in a 220-pound Rockport model makes this a huge upgrade over something like the Revel Salon2. This is Rockports best bang for your buck."http://www.ultraaudio.... | |
Floorstanders or stand-mounted with a sub? Well there you have it. It only took 9 replies to go from a $3,500 speaker to a $30,000... | |
Floorstanders or stand-mounted with a sub? Those of you that claim a stand mounted speakers is better with a sub can't be using a proper crossover. I fined the transition from large floor stander to sub to be much smoother and maintain dynamic impact better just above the sub frequency range. | |
Pairing JL subs w/the Confidence line, possible? Have you thought about the new JL E112? They have built in high pass crossovers. I have not heard dynaudio speakers. | |
Quandry: Used Magico V2 vs. new S1 Peterayer,I have been wondering how the S5 images. Having the tweeter and mid mounted to such a wide baffle seems like and odd design choice. Your comment about them not really disappearing makes me think I was thinking along the correct line. I w... | |
Quandry: Used Magico V2 vs. new S1 Hmm, there seems to be a pretty big discrepancy in opinions on the S1. I will just have to hear them some time for myself. | |
Revel Salon 3? I have yet to hear a better tweeter than the revel salon 2. Maybe the negative reviews of the tweeter are front end related. | |
Revel Salon 3? Mbovaird,The S5 is well put of my budget. I am buying used so I am closer to 10k not 30k but they do look nice. Yyz, The nice thing about wilson is that they are so popular you can almost always find them used.But back on topic, I don't see a Salo... | |
Speaker input, which one, Magico, Avalon, Yg, Rock I have never heard any of these but Jeff Fritz over at ultra audio has had a number of articles comparing the two brands. If sound is more or less equal the looks of the Rockport would win me over. http://www.ultraaudio.com/index.php/letters-menu/... | |
Why is Dynaudio so much cheaper in Europe? Shipping and taxes. Look at how much magicos and Wilson's cost on Europe. | |
Revel Salon 3? Yyzsantabarbara,The thiel 3.7 is a special speaker and they have always sounded great. I was about to buy them before I ran into money issues (wife lost job) and just garbed the 2.4 to hold me over. Anyway all is good now and I am looking again. H... |
