| Innuos Zenith So the Zenith MKII is $6k and the next up (the two chassis unit) will be $14k.Seems to me the ‘sold out’ SE is/will be a hole in the lineup and may be shooting themselfs on the foot by not continuing to offer it. Seems like a bad business move.... | |
| Dick's / Dave's picks Lucky you, boxer12. You got to see them -and the scene- before the influx. My first show was spring ‘88...then I didn’t stop much, when not in school —and while in school ;) But at this stage in the game, IMO, a ‘late bloomer’ is one that did not ... | |

| Dick's / Dave's picks Right on, garebear! More of that GAterful Dead synchronicity :^D It was (and is) an interesting -and spooky sometimes- real phenomenon back at shows. There’s a chapter or two out there about it somewhere. Enjoy and dont overheat out there! It ve... | |
| Dick's / Dave's picks Hey Now, fellows Dead freaks! I was just thinking about this thread and here it is. Good ol’ Grateful Dead synchronicity! I used to use the “So Many Roads” box to ‘demo’ the Dead for people. Great introduction to the different eras of Dead music. ... | |
| Graham ls5/9 vs Harbeth M30.1 I heard the Grahams up there in Michigan, too. Heard the 40.2 and the LS5/9... the Grahams did have that boost around the 5 to 6khz region that is mentioned in one of the reviews—and mentioned as a purposeful design aspect. This def made the speak... | |

| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers As thorough as you are, I’m sure you will but check out your listening volume between Devore and JosephAudio, you may find the JA speakers to like to be turned up more. So might depend on your listening style. | |
| Looking for a warm sweet speaker Read this thread before bed last night and was going to come back and say the same thing as “steakster” did... Glad you’ve been around (we didn’t know that) but I don’t think he said it in any certain way, maybe just passionately informative.Altho... | |
| Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? Wow, congrats to Dan Wright! Mark is right about Dan. This is great news for all. As an already happy owner of an E=C 1800, I am thrilled with this news. | |
| Floor standing speaker isolation advice needed. @cd318, thanks for the reminder. While choosing my stand solution and height, I have the speakers up on wood frame w/ granite platform amp stands. There were sorbothane ‘half-ball’ pads Gibbon under the granite—bad! So I replaced with hardwood bl... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD So glad you got the rack moved back befor the Lampi demos! I hope the XLR adapters don't hamper performance or perception to much. Adapters IME have always added a level of degradation. | |
| Floor standing speaker isolation advice needed. Anyone (geoffkait?) think the IsoAcoustics Modular Aluminum Series stands will translate the same Performance as their smaller stands and footer devices??? Im thinking of trying them under Harbeth 40.2 (that I want lower than traditional stands fo... | |
