| Why Don't you hear more about Audio Physics Speakers?? There are some very insightful comments above and I appreciate them. Thank you. Consensus viewpoint seems to be: -Amazing soundstage -Good lows and highs -Less than impactful mids Some preferred brands: Joseph, Spendor Some very pleased wit... | |
| Why Don't you hear more about Audio Physics Speakers?? jl35- Now there is something I was not aware of. Thanks! My friend has the Classic 10's with a "Glass Wrap" -upgrade. I first saw the glass and thought "WTF"! Horrible idea! But when I listened I realized it serves a purpose. He will sell them... | |
| Convincing your local dealer to let you try speakers at home You might as well have listened on your back patio as that room has few side wall or ceiling reflections. I would expect it will sound worse in any room. They idea of a Take Home Fee makes sense. If you buy it applies to the purchase. The dea... | |
| Why Don't you hear more about Audio Physics Speakers?? Testy, That's a good explanation. Joseph audio is a perennial favorite of mine. I see AP announced a recent "BreakThrough" enhancement that caught my attention. The Soft-Mid criticism is a useful take. I am going for a 2nd listen on the 26th a... | |
| Add a Linear power supply or iFi SPDIF Purifier2? Zen 3 now $3k? needs a DAC. Good solution. | |
| Oppo 105 favoring one channel They were still fixing products last year when I zapped mine. Free too! | |
| Potential upgrade path… If your room is small speakers that work against the wall are a good option. AudioNote is one I like. Unload the Legacies and the Rogue. Get a small set amp with the $12k Audio Notes and spend the rest on treatments. | |
| Preamp with two volume controls? That was it. Audible Illusions. | |
| Preamp with two volume controls? yes. based in Florida now and been around for many years. Extreme value. Name eludes me. | |
| life span/failure rate of filter capacitors? Nelson Pass stated that even after 20 years most of his products do not need new caps. Maybe because he uses a lot of them? | |
| Pass Labs Speaker Choices Something I often hear from my audio friends. "Any speakers sound good with your Pass". A generalization naturally but also a lot of truth. I started with the XA25 amp and then traded it for the INT25. I have used Old Tannoys FSMs and that was... | |
| DAC better than Denafrips Pontus II I sold my Pontus 2 and bought an ANK 4.1x assembled by Digital Pete. Used they go for $2,500-$2,800. For the same Pontus 2 @ $1,700 but better SQ you would be looking at obscure stuff from eastern Europe. No features either. Keep the Pontus ... | |
| I'm looking to add sub-woofers to my system... Buy 2 REL 5Ti's at $700 each new. Not ported, fast, clean. All REL makes is Subs. Love mine. | |
| Will this amp work as described below: I use a Pass Int25 in a slightly larger sized room with Fritz Carrera 7 BE's but at 70dB not 90. I can not imagine the 30.8 not being able to throw you out a window. Seems like 90Db in 13 x 13 all you would hear is the room or am I crazy? | |
| EXPEREINCE WITH AYON A yawn from here. Find another brand. |
