Stereo Times Review of the Apogee Acoustics Diva Melbguy1, to hear my personal opinion of Apogees take a look at my response to the other ongoing thread here entitled "TSW Apogee Diva Ultimates Any Good"? I will add to it that, as I had mentioned before, I think the room size, in conjunction wit... | |
True Sound Works Apogee Diva Ultimate - Any Good? Hello Lloydelee21, If it was a choice between the original Full Range and the "New" Amphytron (I'm referring to it as new because it simply didn't exist 25+ years ago) I would lean towards the Amphytron mainly because of the newer implementation o... | |
True Sound Works Apogee Diva Ultimate - Any Good? Hello Lloydelee21, The Apogee full ranges are Apogee's flagship speaker. Some may argue that the Scintilla model competes with it but most agree that the Full Range is unquestionably the best save for the very limited production Grand model [which... | |
Stereo Times Review of the Apogee Acoustics Diva Room Size (from my experienced opinion) is the number one factor in determining whether to use Duetta Sigs or Divas. I am the "buddy" of Ptmconsulting [above post]and as he mentioned I have been a planar fan for most of my audioHOLIC life. After M... | |
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Hello Tbg, Yes, in an ideal world personal auditioning in one's own system trumps all forms of verbal recommendations of course, but I think what keeps a lot of these threads alive is people being able to add their personal listening experience de... | |
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Hello all...I've been following this rather long thread too. As a long-time chaser of the audio grail I find myself, like so many of us, getting closer and closer but never "done". My 2 cents about ultimate 16/44 dacs is my Lampizator Big 6...it j... | |
Cary Audio V12R They generally go in the $2k-$2.5k range depending on which version (the "R" is the latest and best, the original was also good but I've heard mixed feelings on the in-between "i" version) and condition. Retail was mostly around $4-$5k again depen... | |
Can a garage serve as listening room? Thanks Peter, I encourage anyone who really wants a dedicated room to try to make it happen as it's such an important factor and really can make such huge improvements in the sound. Good luck guys. | |
EVS modified Oppo 105D Thank you Agisthos, you have confirmed what I had suspected...I was sure there must be room for improvement(s). Lamark, I'm happy for you and the many others who have utilized Ric at EVS. | |
Can a garage serve as listening room? You can definitely do what Peter did ( Nice job!!!) as I also did mine too... A tremendous amount of work but we both followed similar paths with fairly similar results though mine started as a 13.5' x 19' and the finished interior ended just a bi... | |
EVS modified Oppo 105D Aftermarket upgrades are a great source of system improvement and I have been reading several sites, including EVS, Modwright, etc...all of which offer their own variations and varying levels which are ostensibly designed to improve the player as ... | |
Attention Cary V12R owners I have one and love it. Yes it's on the warm sounding side w the EL 34's but the mids are awesome ... It tightens up and cleanly extends and "clarifies" w good KT 88's or my favorites the Winged C 6550's. The partial/ full triode power options can... | |
Silverline Sonatina IV I agree Alan is a pleasure to speak to. I'm a big Silverline fan too I've owned Sonata 2's twice as well as SR 11's and 16's and helped my friend buy the original Sonatinas which he loves.... All / any of Alan's speakers share his wonderfully natu... | |
Panel Sound I'm also a diehard dipole guy... The first pair I ever heard were Maggie MG 2B's over 30 years ago and instantly became hooked... in fact, I bought the pair from my friend. Won't bore anyone with anymore of my purchases since but they do include a... | |
New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house Hello LK, It's nice to hear from you here...Your "Baby", (my Big 6), is my musical Nirvana. Thank you sooo much. P.S. LMK if you're ever on this side of the pond again. G. |
