| Amps for Wilson Watt Puppy 6.0? I have to agree with Matt above. I'm a total tube guy who was running Jadis JA-100s with my 6s with total satisfaction until I demo'd the Halcro Dm58s. I had the good fortune to keep the Halcros for over 1 month and was utterly convinced that they... | |
| Most achingly-beautiful music This thread has been kept alive over one year. May it survive another! Toward that end, try the "Prelude to Parsifal" by Wagner, especially as performed by Christian Thieleman. | |
| whats up with jadis I have no trouble getting ANY Jadis gear I desire from Brooks Berdan Ltd. in Monrovia, CA. Service as well. My new JA-100s balanced came right on time. He has a pretty nice display of Jadis' line as well. | |
| Hardwood floors vs Carpet Dekay, you are clearly and most enviably one who has been able to keep the second reflection second, even after eliminating the first. | |

| Hardwood floors vs Carpet Imagine a Stradivarius playing in the center of your speakers. Would it sound more like a Strad with or without carpet? Obviously it would sound like a Strad with or without carpet in your room. Whether or not you liked it one way or the other is ... | |

| Hardwood floors vs Carpet If hardwood is good for live music why should it NOT be good for electronically reproduced music if the transduction is accurate? On the other hand I think carpeting Carnegie Hall could be the solution to the current discrepancy between live and r... | |
| Best Carpet Padding Metaphysics, your meta-logic is meta-evident. If I'd interpreted your meta-English sooner, I'd have called myself collect and reversed the charges. And saved us both the trouble. Well, maybe one of us. | |
| Best Carpet Padding Metaphysics, you now astonish me. You state that vertical and front-to-back info (ie,soundstage) comes ONLY from the left and right speakers. I must disagree. By your logic headphones should have the best 3-D imaging (pure left-right signal to the... | |
| if i could trade places...... Kelly, you chose badly. The tambourine is a harsh mistress. And Eric always liked me better. | |
| These are the best Solid State Amps Doug, could you edify us with your list of best American front-wheel drive cars from the 80's as a point of reference? | |
| Audiomecca Mephisto If the puck exorcizes the extra 'c' in "excorcism" then it might just be worth it. | |
| Best Carpet Padding Metaphysics, you astound me. You reduce stereo imaging to one dimension: "Everything about our current playback systems is based on left to right/horizontal differences"; "Stereo imaging is based SOLELY on differences between left and right(horizo... | |
| Best Carpet Padding Metaphysics, I understand your point but think you missed mine. What you say about the floor's proximity to the drivers is of course correct. But overly damping the floor will simply change the SOURCE of the first reflection that hits the ears and... |
