| Is harmonic accuracy and timbre important at all? You know, come to think of it, all speakers have their own signature timbres that color their sonic output regardless of the electrical input. Timbre is the essence that differentiates or distinguishes the sound of identical harmonic frequencies. ... | |
| Help Audiogoners need your imput Aoltes, a Kiseki Purple Heart Sapphire was the first moving coil cartridge I bought because I could not afford a Koetsu. I was thrilled with it and found its sound to be quite similar to the Koetsus of the day. I used it happily on an Oracle Delph... | |
| Is harmonic accuracy and timbre important at all? Bigtee, I agree with you completely but I am firmly in the "sounds good" camp all around. I think of my system more as a musical instrument than a surgical one.Steve, how far do you extend your quest for accuracy? To the sources, the electronics a... | |
| OK WILSON OWNERS. HERE IS YOUR CHALLENGE Oneobgyn, I could not agree with you more. I have found inviting audiophiles into my home to be hugely satisfying; meeting interesting people and picking up some great tips for music I might not have have otherwise considered. I'm in SoCal but tra... | |
| OK WILSON OWNERS. HERE IS YOUR CHALLENGE Westborn, I suspect your tongue is well in cheek and maybe rightly so but I had no intentions of writing any knd of polemic, impressive or hilarious. Jim in his post of 1/07 listed his well thought out reasons as to why he feels the speakers are d... | |
| OK WILSON OWNERS. HERE IS YOUR CHALLENGE Hey Jim. Just wondering if you had any takers of your "challenge". I'd like to know the results, especially against the Maxx II since that's the only speaker that has me thinking about giving up my W/P7s.I certainly agree that the Chimera and W/P7... | |
| OK WILSON OWNERS. HERE IS YOUR CHALLENGE Jim, I believe you are sincere but I do not really understand your challenge. First off, the Chimeras do not sell for any less than the W/P7s. Second you say you will perform your comparison even in a system optimized for Wilsons EXCEPTING of cour... | |
| BEST UPGRADE regardless of cost? The best way to improve any electronic device is to improve the electrons upon which it feeds. Just as a Porsche 911 turbo will likely disappoint someone fueling it with kerosene, so most high end source components will disappoint anyone fueling t... | |
| Japan CD's Japanese vinyl is not necessarily sonically better but is definitely sonically different. More upper midrange presence. Like CDs. No wonder SETs are so popular in Japan. | |
| Avid Volvare - SME IV arm or Tri-planar VII ??? Brieshayana, I point you to the Super ScoutMaster as an excellent representative of a non-sprung table. If, like me, you have already determined that you prefer the sound of sprung tables then you cannot go wrong with the Avid. I agree completely ... | |
| Brinkmann vs HR-X vs SME 30 Does anyone use a Brinkmann arm on anything other than a Brinkmann table? Does anyone use an EMT on anything other than a Brinkmann arm? How interchangeable are these paths to perfection? | |
| Avid Volvare - SME IV arm or Tri-planar VII ??? I have only heard the SME IV on the Volvere and I thought it was a superb match. That said, I chose the Triplanar VII for my Acutus over the SME V and Graham Phantom. I think your choice of cartridge and need for adjustability during play might be... | |
| A brutal review of the Wilson Maxx Oysters in May pose risk of Vibrio Vulnicus infection. So definitely don't send any results until after Septenber. Regarding the Herring Festival, could you apprise us of any particularly red ones worth chasing?(other than anechioc anarchism).We h... | |
| A brutal review of the Wilson Maxx Unsound you are relentless, a trait I admire, but we've dribbled beyond logic long ago.But for the record, Wilson does individually tune the MaXX to every environment in which it is placed, just like Steinway.And I wait with bated breath for the a... | |
| wilson watt puppy 7 help and suggestions I agree with Cytocycle's recommendations wholeheartedly except one: you should listen to both ports with the Lamms and determine which sounds best by your ears. As a long time Wilson afficionado and current W/P7 owner I learned long ago that the p... |
