| The Low Volume Loudness Dilemma @Crustycoot - I have a couple of questions about Yamaha's YPAO function. All the Yamaha equipment I have owned predates YPAO so I have no clue how well it works although I have read some favorable comments online. That said, does this room compens... | |
| Guitar playing audiophiles, Martin or Taylor? I have 4 bass guitars, an old 80s vintage Fender 4 string, a Yamaha 5 string, and 2 Ibanez, the cheaper of the two is my favorite to play. Its not finished nearly as well as the more expensive Ibanez but oddly seems to play better. You would think... | |
| Mark Knopfler & James Taylor Pretty much anything by Fleetwood Mac from the Rumours Album forward, but even the old Bare Trees album was good. Knopfler rocks...maybe my favorite artist ever. Almost anything he has done resonates with me. Emmy Lou Harris, has done a bucket loa... | |

| Integrated amp for Legacy Focus speakers Arent the focus xd speakers blessed with built in amps? | |
| No love for Legacy Audio At the same time I had those my dad had a pair of the legacy signatures (first generation) and the VMPS blew those away in every department. But that isnt a really fair comparison but it does say a lot for the VMPS competency | |

| Ohm Speakers Status Update I truly regret I never got to meet John or talk to him before he passed, I have no doubt I would have liked him. | |
| Ohm Speakers Status Update Hi all! My Ohm 2000s are NOT equipped with an adjustment for tweeter level. I confirmed that today by removing the speaker connecting panel and there was nothing behind it but wire going to the speaker in the top of the cabinet. THat said I sent ... | |
| Ohm Speakers Status Update I hesitate to open them up lest I break something so I dont know for sure. All I have to go on at this point is Evan's statement that there was no way to adjust the tonal balance on my particular pair. I think I am going to contact him and ask wha... | |
| Ohm Speakers Status Update I contacted Evan about the muted high end response and asked him about the adjustment hidden behind the connection terminals and he said it didnt exist. Since the pair I bought came from their refurb store, I may have an older model that does not ... | |
| AA for us There is one aspect of this that is a new experience for me. I previously had equipment that had basic tone controls and a manually adjustable graphic eq for low frequencies that gave some control over room modes with a db meter and some tweaking ... |
