| Opinions and recommendations on active loudspeakers @gosta. Congrats on those Quested V3110s! They are certainly among the first rank of active studio monitors and, by all accounts, altogether the equal of the PSIs that I flog. Between their sound and @ 6½ stone (they're British, after all...) they... | |
| Opinions and recommendations on active loudspeakers Several notes:1) Active speakers (monitors) such as most of the higher-end ones being discussed here are by in large no-nonsense and demanding professional tools. Not only are they not designed to be eye-catching and decorative, as a class they mu... | |
| Opinions and recommendations on active loudspeakers @inna Not. At. All. The first concern, by far, is sound quality. One's job depends on it. But pros are generally a no-nonsense bunch with better things to concern themselves with than pointless tweaks. Active monitors are a very well proven concep... | |
| Opinions and recommendations on active loudspeakers There may be others as good, I’ve not auditioned all that there is obviously, but I’m confidant that none are finer than PSI Audio Active Studio Monitors. They are built in Switzerland by a company that is an offshoot of Revox, if that rings a bel... | |
| How many audiophiles do you need to change a lightbulb? So far, it seems that no one, not one commenter, has mentioned the necessity of burning-in the bulb for a minimum of 250 hours before passing critical judgment on the fidelity or balance of the light produced. Likewise the cabling supplying the cu... | |
| Vindication at Last! Undoubtedly, many, if not all, of those cheap, out-of-spec digits were supplied by Lirpa Uno Industries, Inc. | |
| Looking for a decent CD Recorder If one is still going to burn a CD-R, the quality of the burner is nearly irrelevant. The Tascam unit or the one in your computer will both be just fine. I burn CD-Rs for commercial reproduction with a Plextor drive in my computer which I then tes... | |
| Power Conditioners: Audioquest Niagara 5000 or Shunyata Denali 6000S Audiogon just trashed my lengthy reply, and I'm not redoing it. Sorry. In short, both units are completely silent both in operation and the effect on the system. VERY worth it. | |
| Power Conditioners: Audioquest Niagara 5000 or Shunyata Denali 6000S Allow me to third the recommendation of Equi=Tech *balanced* power conditioners. https://www.equitech.com/ They are the original, and still the best. Equi=Tech is mostly focused on the professional/studio market and does not promote itself or cate... | |
| What is the most memorable concert that you had attended so far? Over the decades, I've attended *thousands* of live performances, ranging from the New Lost City Ramblers, to the N. Y. Pro Musica, to Michala Petri, the Heifetz of the recorder, to Kathryn Tickell, OBE, the Heifetz of the Northumbrian smallpipes,... | |
| How about a list of speakers that are time and phase coherent? Thiels and what else? My PSI (née Revox) active studio monitors, which are Swiss-built and 20 years newer, top even my Thiel 2 2’s for coherence, transparency, and pinpoint imaging. And I’m VERY happy with my Thiels. Were I ever to replace the Thiels, PSI would be my f... | |
| How do you store and catalog your vinyl? I have about 3,000 LPs (and around 6,000 CDs). I don't have the LPs cataloged, never felt the need, altho Music Collector or Discogs are both workable, depending. The LPs are stored in modular fashion in U-Haul Small Moving Boxes, which at 12 5/8"... | |
| How do you move HEAVY speakers with sharp spikes without lifting? Some good suggestions. I'd been thinking maybe JATO bottles... | |
| most advanced speaker in a rectangular wooden box? If one is looking for what are *genuinely* the most technologically advanced speakers, ones without the flashy gewgaws and questionable designs often found in consumer speakers, I suggest one search among professional studio monitors. They are gen... | |
