| Quad ESLs - I have some questions I’m listening now to my Bache Tribeca’s and wondering if I would even bother to connect the Quads back up again. What’s special about it is the whizzer-less bamboo wide band driver. With nothing in between the driver and my amp it’s very smooth an... | |
| Quad ESLs - I have some questions I have Quad 57s, rebuilt by Quads Unlimited. Great speakers. That said, I prefer my Bache Audio Tribeca speakers. Beautiful midrange with tight bass and overall a much better balanced speaker. | |
| Can you tell me why I didn't like the Reference 3a MM's? I am getting excellent results driving my Bache Audio Tribeca speakers with both my Pass XA25 and my First Watt SIT-3. Very smooth midrange with detail and no fatigue, huge soundstage, and tight bass. | |
| Joseph Audio dealer in the northeast? If you come to NYC be sure to check out Bache Audio in Brooklyn. | |

| Forever speakers around $5000 Bache Audio Tribeca. $5200. Best speakers I ever had including ProAc, Verity, and Quad. | |
| Advice on Tonearm/ Cartridge combo I had issues with Grado's Reference cartridge with my SME 309. Every time I would play one of those 45 rpm LPs, the first minute or two were unlistenable. I replaced the Grado with an Ortofon Cadenza Bronze and it was much better. Now I'm using a ... | |
| Audio Physic speakers My room is 13x21. Soundstage is great, but bass is lacking. I was considering moving up to the Midex or Codex but went with something else. | |
| Audio Physic speakers I have a pair. See my post below about Bache Audio Tribeca speakers. If you’re in Long Island you can listen to both speakers at my place. That said, while I think the Tempos are fun speakers, the Tribeca’s absolutely smoke them. | |
| Recommendation for an audiophile speaker cord that is not "bright"? I agree with audioman58. Triode Wire Labs cables are very natural sounding cables. I replaced much more expensive speaker cables with the American Speaker cable. In fact, I recently took delivery of a pair of speakers with dual binding posts and a... | |
| Small room amp and speakers recommendation If you can get to Brooklyn, I would suggest visiting Bache and listen to these:https://bacheaudio.com/portfolios/lexington-ave-001/I picked up my Tribeca speakers a few days ago and they sound wonderful. They are less expensive than the Audio Phys... | |
| Best used speakers under $10000 If you are near Brooklyn, go visit Bache Audio. Heard the smaller Lexington's at the NY Show, went to the Brooklyn showroom, and now have a pair of Tribeca's on the way. I was considering ProAcs (K3) and the Wilson Sabrina's. Check out this review... | |
| Speaker Cable Recommendations Check out Triode Wire Labs. They offer a 30 day trial period. I replaced all my Silver Audio cables with TWL. | |
| Cube Audio or Charney Check out Bache Audio. I have had many speakers, including different types of speakers and Lowthers were among them. I have not heard Cube Audio but have heard both Charney and Bache at audio shows and decided on Bache. I even considered using the... |
