| Speaker selector app. SALK SONG3 ENCORE'S priced at $6,000/pair. Certainly better than any $20.000 pair of speakers you will ever hear.However.........soosh! They sell direct and the dealers here sure wouldn't want to hear this. | |
| What Sonically is the Difference between a $1,500 CD Player and a $10K-$25K One? It is all about pounding your chest when you have your buddies over to show them your new stuff. It is then very important to tell them what you spent so they can all be extremely impressed. Then ask one of your buddies to do a blind testing bet... | |
| Looking for a good full range floor stander audiotroy2,You must be a dealer. When I was looking for speakers, I thought Focal, B&W and Keff's were some of the worst out there. Focal's aria line is one of the worst (look at the reviews). When I heard them I asked the dealer, "Where's ... | |
| what is it in audio that you dislike most? Most dealers operate on a shoe string. They don’t have inventory to demo and if they do, they assume you will not buy the higher end lines. Their show rooms are usually low budget and they don’t bother to master set their speakers. They want to... | |
| Looking for a good full range floor stander I went to last year’s RMAF. I visited Jim Salk at Salk Audio. I listened to his Song3 Encore towers priced at $6,00/pair and they sounded better than a pair of $60,000 speakers down the hall. Can’ imagine what his more expensive speakers sound ... | |
| Which cable I think you should buy a pair of $9,000 Nordost cable. Think everyone would confirm. | |
| Why a separate DAC? I am streaming TIDAL hard wired CAD6 from my modem in my family room to my Apple TV in the living room and have the Apple TV hardwired to my ARCAM AVR550. I just found out I have not been even hearing 16 bit quality sound. ARCAM makes a streamer... | |
| What Sonically is the Difference between a $1,500 CD Player and a $10K-$25K One? I currently have Paradigm Prestige 85F towers. They came with metal jumper plates. Will I hear a significant difference if I replace them with speaker links? I have Tara Labs Apollo speaker wire and wonder how important it would be to spend $26... | |
| What Sonically is the Difference between a $1,500 CD Player and a $10K-$25K One? Kind of like the "Emperors New Cloths". If you spend $10,000 you will talk yourself into hearing the difference. Buy a new car or pay down your mortgage instead. It is like anything else with audio. It minimal returns for money spent in my opi... | |
| Any other lone audiophiles here? A lot of them will one up you and make you feel bad. Best not to keep up with them. | |
| Sound quality vs. volume If you do not have subwoofers, they could lighten the load on your mains to be able to play at lower volumes to decrease distortion. | |
| Anyone know how to set up Rythmik subwoofers on an ARCAM AVE550 receiver? I have a pair of Paradigm Prestige 85F towers that play down to 40 Hz. Paradigm includes another spec number 28 DIM. I think that number is possibly room gain or what they can play down to based on any given room. Maybe buying just one ported s... | |
| Anyone know how to set up Rythmik subwoofers on an ARCAM AVE550 receiver? Ataraxia,I am glad to hear from someone who owns a pair of Rythmik F12 SE's. It sounds like they might not be as difficult to set up as I have been told. How did you decide to buy the Rythmik's? I personally think their Direct Servo technology ... | |
| Anyone know how to set up Rythmik subwoofers on an ARCAM AVE550 receiver? bcp24,What subwoofers do you own. Just curious. I think some of the problem lies with knowing how many audiophiles consider REL to be the best. What I am afraid of is buying the Rythmik's and finding out they are too boomy. One of the biggest ... | |
| Anyone know how to set up Rythmik subwoofers on an ARCAM AVE550 receiver? Sorry bdpd, I didn't mean to upset you.I talked to a really good speaker manufacturer and he told me to set things up with an SPL meter. This is pretty complicated for someone who does not have a degree in electrical engineering or for someone w... |
