| Thiels or Von Schweikerts FYI-I've been using an PS Audio HCA2 amp w/ my Thiel 3.6s for almost three years- a match made in heaven, in my book. The sound is everything I've been looking for for 35 years. So - you don't need to spend a fortune on an amp- just get the right ... | |
| Buggtussel Question I had Cingulates and did not experience the upper mid problems... in fact I thought the range was handled very well. The tweeter is very accurate, though, so garbage in, garbage out. In my opinion, don't pay any attention to poor recordings. Buyin... | |
| Monitor Audio: audiophile quality????? I have GR10s on my desk, and am listening now. I think they are competitive with anything in the $2000 and under class. I prefer them to Revel M20s, Aerial 5, and Paradigm Active 20s, all of which I owned. Very fast, detailed and transparent. Matc... | |
| Speakers with forward midrange? they have a brand sound that is more forward than many. The models sound similar, but with varying bass depth. | |
| Review: Whatmough M30,M10,M05 Speaker I think the Ascend is a more open and detailed speaker, but the M30 has much more bass output (perhaps a bit too strong in the midbass for some). The center is very smooth, with a full sound, but as in all pseakers in this package, it is not the m... | |
| Absolute Power Cords? Any opinions? I plugged my first one in last nite. Seems to be quieter, more 3-D. Worth the $, I'd say. Haven't compared them to more expensive, though. | |
| best used transport 400-700 Sony dvd 7000 player- astonishingly clear Look here- I can confirm their findings (great video too).http://www.planethifi.com/planethifi/sum97dvps7000rev.htm | |
| Anyone own or auditioned speakers by Legacy? I have heard Focus, Whisper, classic, and I own the powered impact s/woofer.. Great sound and value, all. Can't be approached for the price. Room matching for the larger models is important, as you can overdrive the room with all that woofer area ... | |
| Headphones I own Senn 600s now and have had 580s and Grado 325s. I love the 600s. They are much more comfortable than the Grados, and I think more sweetly detailed as well. I found that the Grados had a bit of grunge that never allowed them to open up like t... | |
| The best Subwoofer Legacy Audio powered Impact sub is very tight and musical, and sized and priced right. I have used it with Apogee Divas, Quad electrostats, and several dynamic speakers to great effect, for music and movies. | |
| SACD????? I bought a 333 when the price dropped and I am extremely pleased with it as a CD player, and the SACD brings the player into the $5000 sound category. At the current price, the SACD capability is free. I disagree with the previous postings. I thin... | |
| Soliloquy 5.0 biwire fakes? My 5.0s are wired correctly, and you can play woofers and tweeters independently. I think you have a mis-wired pair. | |
| sound dynamic vs, paradigm I have owned Active 20's, Nht 1.5s, sound dynamics rt3, plus many others. In the under $1000 class, the Soliloquy 5.0s(look for b-stock through underwoodwally on audiogon) are by far the best(competetive with the B&W805s). The rt3 is competeti... |
