| Sound Stage and Imaging Have never heard Ohm. Vandersteen 1 and 1b locally, worth looking it? Lower end Magneplanar or Best Buy Martin Logan? | |
| Sound Stage and Imaging magneplanar: unless recently rebuild, I don't want to deal with the potential issues. Locally listed is a pair of MG1. Also MG1B. Do Magnepan (1.6 local) fall in the same category? Martin Logan ESL (local used), Best Buy ESL 8"? Martin Logan A... | |
| Sound Stage and Imaging IMF 100: can't seem to find in the US. But seems to be one of many LS3/5A based monitors (which I have heard good things about in past readings). What are notable LS3/5A (bang for buck) offers? | |
| Sound Stage and Imaging Vandersteen: friend has a set of 2c (3 way IIRC), terrible room/setup. But will pay more attention next time. First time casual listening, I liked how 'easy/natural' they sounded. | |
| Sound Stage and Imaging Tekton: before the current B&W Nautilus 804 I had the Mini Lore (bought after in house testing several others in the large room with sub). | |
| Velodyne DD15 - worth repairing the plate amp? Replacing the plate amp (or using external amp as I currently do) means NOT having the 'SERVO' control feature the Velodyne was/is famous for. I would assume that this is part of the high regard and performance those Velodyne are known for in comp... | |
| Is my amp good enough? Most certainly stay with what you have and enjoy the new speakers. Your pre amp/amp are good. Later, when you get the itch, play the upgrade game. Audition: why not take your pre amp and amp to the dealer and ask him to run the speaker with YOU... | |
| Velodyne DD15 - worth repairing the plate amp? Thanks, I need to read the manual (already downlaoded a while ago). So the DD-15 HAS computer connection. Do I have a remote (need to check) for the DD-15? If so, hope I did not misplace it somehow. | |
| Velodyne DD15 - worth repairing the plate amp? So how do I use the provided measuring (velodyne) microphone if not via computer? | |
| WHY IS THERE SO MUCH HATE FOR THE HIGH END GEAR ON AUDIO GEAR? Because we can't afford that gear, and are glad is is not providing the 'bang for buck' that our gear does (unlike for example in the car world, where 'normal' to 'crazy' is a factor of 10 ($300k vs $30k) car, while in the audio world, the factor ... | |
| Subwoofer suggestion Would 2 subs placed close to the main speakers also allow higher low pass setting? Thinking using very small satelites that struggle at higher output levels and 80 Hz. | |
| Subwoofer suggestion Sidenote: using 2 subs was mentioned as beneficial. Assuming same 'air movement capability' and budget (think 2x 12" vs 1x 18"), what ARE the perceived noticeable benefits? For discussion sake, I counter that the single LARGE sub will reach lower ... | |
| Velodyne DD15 - worth repairing the plate amp? I have not connected the DD to a computer (waiting for amp to be returned from repair). Will then look into the software, potential update and how to use the software, microphone, etc. | |
| Steely Dan UHQR I think I already have the SACD, so I am good. | |
| Steely Dan UHQR He mixes it just perfect so that other 80 year olds can enjoy it their $150 investment. |
