| Studio Electric M-5 They were using all Benchmark electronics. LA4 preamp and AHB2 mono's I believe. The Ultra fidelis room #1234 with Vandersteen speakers and electronics was excellent. One of my favorite rooms. | |
| Studio Electric M-5 @jpwarren58 I visited the Studio Electric room at AXPONA yesterday. They are new to me. They were demoing their M4 and M5 speakers. I was very impressed with the M5 stand mount speakers. They were clear, coherent, well balanced from top to bott... | |
| Not to be missed at Axpona Went to AXPONA today. First show ever for me despite being in this hobby for over 40 years. Nice to see some familiar smiling faces I have happily done business with along the way: Geoff Poor of Glenn Poor Audio Video, John Loranger (Tara and Con... | |
| Verity Audio speaker manufacturer silent... I received a very nice email reply from Bruno Bouchard confirming that Verity Audio ceased operations in December, 2023 as mentioned above by @toronto416 . | |
| Verity Audio speaker manufacturer silent... +1 @bjesien | |
| Verity Audio speaker manufacturer silent... @bjesien Any truth to this rumor? | |
| Verity Audio speaker manufacturer silent... Sad indeed. Love my Parsifal Encores. Just so easy on the ears. Tried to mate a subwoofer but concluded they really didn't need one when set up properly. It was always surprising to me that they had so few dealers. | |
| The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! @yyzsantabarbara Curious how the Benchmark LA-4 might compare to your friend's passive pre. Or are the Benchmark and Serene more similar to each other than the passive pre. You can PM me as I don't wish to derail this Coda thread. | |
| Searching for a little more warmth +1 @blisshifi I'm not sure if the OP is not getting sufficient low end or the speakers overall are too bright. If there is any way the OP can play with re-positioning the speakers it may be worth his time. For one, eleven feet apart seems a bit... | |
| The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! @minatophase3 The Holo Serene Coda S5.5 pairing would be very interesting. Please do share your impressions when you try them together. | |
| The Emperor Has No Clothes!! @mahler123 That's funny! And true! | |
| Bryston BP-17 cubed or Benchmrk LA4 Preamp Congrats on the Pass XP-12! Let us know how it sounds in your system. The Apt Holman preamp was legendary in its day. | |
| The Emperor Has No Clothes!! @mdalton Boxster S 6-speed, incredibly agile, stable and fast, wife loves it! Owned my dream car- black carrera base 7- speed, uninspiring really, wife was intimidated by it, so sold it. Should have bought a 4S instead but it too would have become... | |
| The Emperor Has No Clothes!! @mdalton On the lighter side... If you think your S4 performs better when it's clean versus dirty, next time put a coat of good wax or sealant on then report back on the seat of the pants performance enhancement :) (former chipped A4 owner, 312k... | |
| Bryston BP-17 cubed or Benchmrk LA4 Preamp @kevemaher If it has a volume control, have you tried connecting the BDA-3 directly to your amp? You would need to turn the gain way down before doing this. The sound will tell you which direction, warmer or more neutral than the M-L, you are look... |
