| How do VANDERSTEEN Signature 2ce's rate? Thanks Tubegroover. The guy's a few french fries short of a Happy Meal. Who knew? | |
| Speakers: all-time worst Pops, you are so lucky to have a "dealer/friend" guide you in your purchases. Let us know if he guides you to the ART or the 16. We can't wait to know. | |
| Are Talon speakers really this great? Will, I agree with you except what I think "Joe" has is inventory. | |
| Best Male Singers of the 20th Century Jussi Bjoerling, sans dout. | |
| Most achingly-beautiful music It's nice to see a thread that is so informative and free of the bashing that is going on in the equipment threads. This is by far the most useful thread I have found on Audiogon. I was an early poster as well on this thread and will try to keep i... | |
| How do VANDERSTEEN Signature 2ce's rate? Joe, you make the Silverline Sonatas sound so appealing. I'm wondering if you are referring to the now discontinued Avalon rip-off version or the new retro-Wharfdale sand-filled model. | |
| Are Talon speakers really this great? Gosh, Joecoherent makes the Silverline Sonatas sound so appealing. I wonder if he's referring to the now discontinued Avalon rip-off version or the new retro-Wharedale sand-filled model. | |
| Is there an alternate to Martin Logans? "My name is Joecoherent. I know what musik sounds like because I own the SLIVERline SNOTS. Sometimes I stick my head in the SNOTS and ask my friends to blow us so I know what a 4-way feels like. That's why I'm an expert. | |
| Audio Physic Virgo Solid State Amps ? The Virgos sound really good with tubes, the ARC VT-100 especially. I have also heard them sound magical with JADIS JA 80s (60w class A monos) and now the best of all with JADIS JA 100s (80w class A monos balanced). I don't think power is as cruci... | |
| Is there an alternate to Martin Logans? Joe, that's not fair. It's clear that you have access to Phill's truths before the rest of us. | |
| Is there an alternate to Martin Logans? Be careful Bigcigarman. Now that Phill_06896 has defined *HI-FI* for us Audiogon mortals, I understand he's about to define music and dictate the specifics of tonal correctness as well. | |
| Vandersteen 5 sound with solid state amp I own and have heard the Vandersteen 5s with the AYRE V-1 and the BEL 1001 MkV monoblocs. With the V-1 they sounded really good: musical and vigorous but lacking a little depth (and that was through an ARC Ref-2). With the BELs they were relaxed a... | |
| Do Silver Cables Hurt Bass? Between 2 cables of the same gauge and construction geometry, one being silver and one high purity copper the silver cable will have lower resistance (ohms/ft) and therefore better damping with the amplifier so it will have better bass. If the gau... | |
| Audio Physic Virgo Solid State Amps ? Phill, I'm really interested. How little does it cost to make a BEL amp, Richard Brown's time to hand tune them included? | |
| Anyone heard the Vandersteen model #5? Someone else just asked the same question recently. I think the posts are in "Best of Audio". Anyway as I said there I recently sold a substantially more expensive speaker speaker/subwoofer combination for the 5s. I completely agree with JKphoto's... |
