| MartinLogan Motion 4 vs Gallo A'Diva Fantastic! So glad it turned out well for you. Enjoy! | |
| Recommendations for monitor/bookshelf speakers The only speakers I have ever heard that don't get too much bass bloom close to a wall are Anthony Gallo A'Divas. I've tried acoustically sealed as well as front ported, and they all had too much bass reinforcement. If you are going to put them in... | |
| I need advice on a good value for speakers Dealer demo is part of their sunk cost. Besides, if they treat you well, you will refer, etc. Demo, demo...and demo! I will second the Mirage OMD-15s. I had them, and they are fantastic floor standers. I now have the OMD-28s...which are amazing, b... | |
| Amplification and Speakers In Huge Home Theater Dude,I absolutely love the way you are thinking...extreme HT. :-D Love it! I have heard the CWs you are looking at, and agree with the previous posters that you would definitely need the Subs. I really viewed these as party speakers. Big and loud,... | |
| Paradigm Studio 10 as computer speakers? I'm at the same distance from my Gallo speakers. Single driver, crossover-less speakers image like crazy though, so it might not be a good comparison. The Studio 10s are a great speaker...if you can try them in your setup first, do so. Mot | |
| Paradigm Studio 10 as computer speakers? I did a quick internet search, and found the Wood Technology Furniture Grade Hardwood FGH-8O 10" speaker stands. Sears has them for $50. If you have the room on your desk, that would bring the speakers up to ear level. The biggest issue I've had w... | |
| Class A SS vs. Class A/B SS @Armstrod is correct...the Monarchy Monoblocks sound wonderful. I heard them and have been contemplating a pair of their balanced mono blocks. The SM70 Pro is 40% off, making it less than $600 per mono block. That is making it tough for me not to ... | |
| Paradigm Studio 10 as computer speakers? If you scan the web, you can find some very short desktop stands for them. I build a 10 inch tall pair for my Mirage OMD-5s for my desk, and they work great. Brings them to ear level. I found the design by searching for short stands. Eventually, I... | |
| best wood for speaker cabinets ? oak,cherry, balti @Photon46...good info man. Yeah, clamping the speaker stands with all the layers and glue was no easy task. :-) Luckily I have friends that helped out. It was completely worth it, as they look great!I was thinking of using the same technique for c... | |
| best wood for speaker cabinets ? oak,cherry, balti I've been researching the same thing for the last year, as I'm looking to make some speakers myself. It boiled down to this...MDF is acoustically inert and doesn't warp easily....which is the main reason it is used commercially by most high-end bu... | |
| Review: Quad 9l Active Monitor Thanks for the review! I had the A2, which I liked...but I really missed the bottom end. I'm using the Cambridge Soundworks Model 12 with Gallo A'Divas, and absolutely love the combo. I will likely buy some 9ls to try them and see how they compare... | |
| Speaker cables for office/travel system. Wow...really?Guess I'll just make some DIY cables. | |
| looking for advice on budget subwoofer I would offer a differing opinion than Grege that people who recommend cable upgrades are frauds. I rely on reason, logic and evidence...not conjecture. Here is a simple, measurable, example that I experienced in my system. My amplifier was runnin... | |
