Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Bondman,Yes, I have the CD of that particular MLP release.I have a dozen or so different MLP titles on CD and pick them up whenever I see them at reasonable cost without a second thought. None on vinyl yet though unfortunately. | |
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Having heard well set up true omni mbl speakers in a sizeable room unlike any that most of us schlubs will ever have, I would consider those to be the all time champs I have heard in terms of image depth and 3-d soundstage.The pseudo-omni OHMs app... | |
AC Outlet w/ Clairity, Trasparency, Bass Weight "My (horn speakers) with (cheap solid-state gear) completely disappeared now!...

AC Outlet w/ Clairity, Trasparency, Bass Weight HFSG,What is the rest of your system?outlets and ac power have no sound. It can only enable the components powered that do produce sound to perform better at best. So it would be helpful to know what those are. | |
Vinyl records No two records are exactly the same. All kinds of variations are possible even with records that appear to be exactly the same.BTW, FWIW, this is less of an issue with CDs or digital in general I believe. Most CDs of a similar origin will tend to ... | |

Zk,YEs, I would easily recommend those with smaller rooms like my two 12X12 rooms go straight to a pair of smaller OHMs in an optimized nearfield configuration with suitable amplification as well and rest in peace from there.I run monitors in one ... | |
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? I would have gone for the Wyred except I decided to splurge and go for the BCref1000m2s for a significant premium.The premium got me 100K input impedance compared to 60K and perhaps an upgrade in the on-board power supply.I like the Wyreds as the ... | |

what to do with my cat on my speaker grills Straitjacket?nah, I like the idea of using smells that repel cats nearby and/or keeping the cat out of the room altogether if possible.Declawing can help but not sure how well received that is these days for cats medically. I had an apparently hea... | |
When does analog compete with digital? I was listening to some very electric CD tracks by The Cars yesterday.Did not hear a trace of soul there but it was most intense and musically gratifying nonetheless.Had some remastered James Brown playing also the other day. Lots of soul there fe... | |

When does analog compete with digital? My Dual 1264 with vintage Goldring cart playing through a vintage Yamaha receiver in my second system is worth way less than $1000 but darn if it does not put out some most enjoyable sounds these days! I've had the Dual and Goldring for a good 20+... |
