| How far can room treatments solve boomy bass? Just saw this thread. I have a high resolution system that includes a PARC. The PARC was the only solution, after ASC Tube Traps to reduce a couple of modes at 31 and 62 Hz present in my room due to dimensional causes. The difference in soundstage... | |
| Wilson Audio sophia 3 or Watt Puppy 6 You're welcome. By the way, are you Casey's McKee's client? | |
| Wilson Audio sophia 3 or Watt Puppy 6 Not much difference IMO between 7s and 8s. The 8s were mostly about replacing the lead damping internally to comply with EU lead free specs. However, the Sashas are significantly better. Smoother bass, the mid bass hump some say were Wilson's weak... | |
| Wilson Audio sophia 3 or Watt Puppy 6 I own WP7s and have listened extensively to Sophia 3s. Depending on price (all things equal), I'd go with WP7s over the 6s, much smoother treble and more bass definition and extension. If the Sophia 3s are $1500-$2K less expensive than available W... | |
| Best single-malt Scotch... Ardbeg or Talisker | |
| My Final Amplifier Purchase - What Would You Buy? My MX-Rs may just fit the bill. | |
| Rives Audio PARC I have a PARC and installed it only after large ASC Super Traps failed to bring a couple of low frequency modes (31 and 62 Hz) under control. It made a tremendous difference with no apparent downside to my ears. You can check out my room by viewin... | |
| Tube kit for Nagra PL-L? Thanks. I can order from my dealer, too. | |
| Tube kit for Nagra PL-L? @Mcintech: Are the tubes the same in either kit? You just don't get all the ancillary "bling", in which I have no interest anyway. | |
| Tube kit for Nagra PL-L? I suspect that Nagra test and match these tubes to standards significantly above what you're likely to acquire off the shelf. | |
| Nagra VPS or Tron Seven Ref phono stages? I too own a PL-L and it is located on a Grand Prix Audio Monaco rack with F1 shelves. Despite my skepticism, the VFS actually improved the presentation in ways similar to what Jfrech mentioned over placing it on the Monaco directly. I purchased it. | |
| Your perfectly produced/performed studio rock song "Take Care the Path You Choose" Richard Thompson from Sweet Warrior | |
| "Nightfly Trilogy" worth the trouble? Same here, but the SACD of Nightfly is definitely worth buying even if you have it on redbook. | |
| Mono blocks that can provide that golden sound... Ayre MX-Rs | |
| Wilson Sophia III vs Sasha Rcred1,I worked directly with Art Noxon at ASC (Acoustic Sciences). Since my room is close to square with an odd shaped bay at the rear, there were still a couple of modes at 32 and 62 Hz that the traps were unable to smooth sufficiently. That's w... |
