| Anybody listen to Ohm Walsh speaker w/digital amp? "yet the Trio's ability to deliver more current seems a likely reason for achieving that effortless sound I'm hearing .. yes?!"Absolutely yes. | |
| Quad ESL owners question I liked the big Quads but went with OHMs for almost 1/3 the cost. No regrets. | |
| My experience with ATC SCM 12 You may well like the Triangles based on your stated preferences. They are more in the direction you indicate relative to Dynaudios. I have both Triangles and Dyns in my house. | |
| Anybody listen to Ohm Walsh speaker w/digital amp? Jmelvin,I've found only larger and much more expensive speakers can deliver all the goods as effortlessly as the OHMs when fed lots of good clean power and current.Cheers + enjoy! | |
| Circuit City is Closing, Liquidating IT hard for me to have any sympathy for Circuit City.For many years, they have been a poster-child of the mediocrity that plagues so many things these days from what I saw. I don't think they were that way when they started. | |
| Phono Stage Hum The phono pre-amp seems to be the suffering piece.Hopefully it is just external magnetic fields that can be taken out of the equation (like kryptonite with SUperman) rather than some inherent problem with the piece itself.Good luck. | |
| What piece of music can you play over & over? "Cities" - The Moody Blues (nice clean harpsicord accompaniment particularly on remastered CD versions BTW)and the better known flip side of the single, "Nights in White Satin", also. | |
| MIT cables and super tweeters DRjoe,A lot of time with the relatively cheapo MITs in my system.As I said, I like them a lot and can recommend them to others.I have no doubt the high end stuff is even better.When I read some of their literature, some of it made sense to me and ... | |
| Jitter reduction, best device? I'd be skeptical of any device, like PCs, not specifically designed for good sound. DACs like the benchmark and others that re-clock during upsampling would seem to be the way to go when the source is a generic computer.From the sound of it in my ... | |
| MIT cables and super tweeters "A good example would be his manufacturer's response in the current TAS (no. 190, page 105) to Robert Harley's review of his $25K 8-foot speaker cables and $8K 1-meter interconnect. Just absolute techno-babble, at least as applied to audio frequen... | |
| What piece of music can you play over & over? "The Third Man" theme.It was released in 1950. | |
| MIT cables and super tweeters For what its worth, there is a white paper on the MIT website that describes the effects of the various technologies they use, including the various boxs. I don't think it has anything to do with filtering of any kind.I use the older and cheaper T... | |
| Phono Stage Hum Check all connections including those to the cartridge first.If still a problem, check proximity of the phono stage to other components and any other devices emitting magnetic fields. The power amp is a prime suspect. Move it around physically and... | |
| Circuit City is Closing, Liquidating best buy, target, walmart, amazon, and others win | |
| Jitter reduction, best device? Rbstehno is right.Like most gadgets, all that really matters is if you hear a difference for the better thats worth it to you.If it works, who cares how it did it? |
