| Revel Salons - Do they really sound like this? Actually, only individual parameters of "accuracy in speakers can be measured" with instruments. What I was hoping was that you might have measurements for the Revels that would show significant deviation from a flat response. As for time-coherenc... | |
| Revel Salons - Do they really sound like this? "The truth is, if you're looking for accuracy, which is not subjective, the Revel Salons fail."On what non-subjective basis? | |
| Revel Salons - Do they really sound like this? My objection is to the guys who dismiss any of these better speakers as garbage. None of them are. While I may have a preference for the Revels and reasons for that preference, I would not denigrate any of the other suggestions as sounding like a ... | |
| how much influence has Audiogon had Mebbe the influence is going the other way. ;-)Kal | |

| Bi-amping with no pre-outs You cannot split the mono out into stereo. | |
| Living Stereo SACD's are a comin http://www.stereophile.com/news/081604mercury/index.html | |
| Good tube preamp w/ HT bypass I thought I posted this yesterday but I'll try again:The SF Line series has dual paralleled outputs for SE and for BAL. How about feeding the HT L/R outs to one on the OUTS on the SF? As long as the HT pre/pro is off, it should not load the SF run... | |
| Living Stereo SACD's are a comin FWIW, the first 9 Mercury Living Presence SACDs came in today. Cannot wait for the weekend.Kal | |
| Living Stereo SACD's are a comin All the press releases and articles clearly state that they were made by direct transfer from the original master tapes. Kal | |
