| Buying Decision..Cary SLI80 or Jadis Orchestra.... I have not heard the SLI 80, but had a Rocket 88 in a similar sized room. I used and still have Proac Response 2 speakers. I like the sound and found that the Proac speakers worked well with the CARY amp.If you need to place speakers close to the ... | |
| Speakers for a small room, looking for feedback I have not heard the speakers on your list, but I have a room that size with similar placement constraints. My experience with a number of speakers is that you need to steer clear of rear ported speakers.I hope this helps. | |

| Still pondering Paradigms The Proac 2 is a good suggestion for a small room. I have a pair and like them. The 2 is front ported, while the 2s is rear ported. Something to bear in mind if you need to locate them near a rear wall.Good luck in your search. | |
| Best and Worst Websites in Audio'dom http://www.jeffrowland.com/is one of the best sites. Great information | |
| Speakers for small room? I am using Proac Response 2. See my system if you like. I did not have success with rear ported speakers. If you are considering a rear ported speaker you should audition carefully in your room before purchasing. Good luck! | |
| Best Speaker for audiophile-grade small room rig Be sure to try them in your room. I do not have a large room either. I found that rear ported speakers did not work well in my room. See my system if you like. I have some changes planned, but it sounds good now. Also, I recently upgraded to Osiri... | |
| The Audio Research Database I agree with Tumbler. An excellent collection of information. Kevyo, how about a little work on your social and spelling skills? It's nice to be nice. | |
| Best Joni Mitchel Album Blue is her best. No discussion required. It can put you in a trance because it is so beautiful.I also love Hejira. Different, but sounds great. | |
| apparant pitch instability Not to hijack your thread, but you should see the thread on the Yanks (Wanks?). They had this problem also. | |
| Spendor SP1/2e's vs. SP100's The SP 2/3's drivers were put into the 7/1, and the SP 100's drivers into the 9/1. Sadly the cabinets were too costly to produce, spelling an early demise for this fine series.Listener Magazine Volume 7, Number 1 | |
| What's your High End best buy/unknown components? Quicksilver Phono Preamp. Not enough gain for Low output MC, unless you use the transformer. A great piece of equipment. Reliable and sounds great. | |
| Spendor SP1/2e's vs. SP100's You also might want to look for a pair of Spendor 9/1. The floor standing version. They sound great. I had to sell mine because I moved to a house with a smaller music room. Many regrets. |
