| Primaluna? Kevin, I purchased Gizmos SE308 SunlIght Engineering drivers used them in a few cabinet types. | |
| Primaluna? What is popular and what sells doesn’t necessarily equal performance. When a dealer mentions something as best selling I think of pop music and light beer. VIVA makes SETs Decware, AirTight, WAVAC, Mastersound, Luxman, Cary Audio Yamamoto sound cr... | |
| Paypal Changes for 2022 I want to sell my old amplifier I bought it years ago for 5k and I sold it for 2500 I have no receipt so now I'm taxed on 2500 as profit this is the issue most people do not have receipts for old gear or any other old item. It is just a way to ma... | |
| FEDEX keeps destroying my New CARY 805RS Monoblocks - What can I do to prevent Nightmare? FEDEX isn't able to properly deliver audio products in a safe or timely manner. The last 2 items sellers shipped to me with FEDEX were weeks late and arrived damaged. | |
| Horn based loudspeakers why the controversy? {my cousin bought a pair of Klipsch Heresy IV} that's a lot of hands-on experance you used to form such an all-encompassing opinion. | |
| Horn based loudspeakers why the controversy? Well stated phusis{I don't know why one would necessarily want big speakers to blend in visually - it kind of goes contrary to their nature. If you got the dedicated space to house something like big horns, let them unapologetically take up the en... | |
| What is the best HEAVY METAL speaker? I am lucky enough to have loudspeakers that Van Halen RUSH Dio Metalica Tesla Judas Priest etc all played through live. I repurposed these horns into modern loudspeakers so when I listen to metal it's just as it should be heard. Through horns that... | |
| Introspective of this forum: "Does the Audiophile Community Have a Promlem?" I Say yes!!! The bad apples find a place where they feel at home not all forums or groups are full of unhelpful ignorant know-it-alls. https://www.facebook.com/groups/614272918584739 | |
| Moving away from inefficient/low impedance speaker in order to move to a Tube Amp My Luxman 25 watt tube amps running a horn speaker with 2 x 21" woofers speakers are 4 ohms 103db 1 watt. | |

| Does Heavy Metal music benefit from a high end audio system? An audio system should do justice to any type of music played. If not something is off. And rock music and metal are not inferior recordings many metal and rock acts used much care in mastering. As with all types of music bad recordings exist. | |
| Vintage vs Modern speakers. The a7 can run with a 50k audiophile loudspeaker but I knew that already and it only gets better an a2-4 -a5 all are far better than an a7. Shearer designs even better than those. I have had jaded audio designers rethink life's work after hearing ... | |
| To horn or not to horn I do find it amusing that people buy a cheap loudspeaker with a horn tweeter and then pronounce that they hate horns forever. Since they didn't even have a horn speaker in the 1st place just a horn driver and an extremely small sample rate to pron... | |
| Fidelity vs. Musicality...........Is there a tug of War? You can have both in a system. | |
