| Pro audio amp vs. residential amp This may really spoil the party, but guess what ? Amps sound different, on different speakers, and different preamps.Example - I got rid of an Adcom 555 that was bright and hard, and 2 dimensional on my old Von Schweikert VR 4'sI traded with a` ... | |
| John Dunlavy On "Cable Nonsense" I heard it for myself, at Bob Carvers home in Snohomish, Washington.I heard Bob's Dahlquist DQ 10's, first driven by a big Conrad Johnson Tube Amp, then by a Carver Solid State Amp.The sound was identical.The problem was, it was not possible to do... | |
| amps for dunlavy sc4 John Dunlavy was quite fond of Plinius Amps from Australia.Remember, though he was an American, he lived in Australia for quite some time. | |
| Klipsch forte II what league are they in? The Klipsch Original Forte, and the Cornwall 2 are amazing speakers.Especially when the crossover caps are upgraded, and the titanium diapraghms installed from Bob Crites.I had Klipschorns, found them bright, and coloration from the folded horn ru... | |
| Is the moscode 600 a great amplifier? It is powerful, reliable, and more tube like then transistor.It drives just about any reasonable load, and even some unreasonable ones.IMHO, it is THE amp to have if you are a guy like me, always changing, or owning many pairs of speakers.The Mosc... | |

| Von Schweikert VR-4jr owners, your thoughts? Mine are on the way, they just shipped yesterday from California.I have owned VR 1's, liked them, then moved up to VR 2's.Had the VR 2's for over a year, sold em here, and now I am moving up to the VR 4JR's.In my opinion, Albert Von Schweikert is ... | |
| Which speaker is the master of IMAGING ???? These are 2 modern day speakers that image well. | |
| Klipsch love them or hate them. Unfortunately, many Audiophiles look down their noses at Klipsch.I personally dont care for the La Scalas, and the Belle Klipsch.However, the Klipsch Epic series are truly audiophile speakers, with smoothness and 3 dimensional imaging, and the abi... | |
| "Speakers" always up for sale--Poor Performers?? There truly are some poorly engineered products out there, and they get a good review because some manufacturer packed someones nose, or bought mucho ad space!Dipoles for one just sometimes dont work in some rooms, no matter what.Another mistake i... |
