| WOW factor Running a high current amp capable of doubling output from 8 to 4 ohms made a big difference with my larger Ohm Walsh speakers.This amp replaced another amp that had 3X the power output but not as much current, and only increased power delivered m... | |
| small room/speakers A pair of Ohm micro-walshs (short or tall) might work very nicely.www.ohmspeakers.com | |
| New Product......Intelligent Box Is this a joke? | |
| Why vinyl? I have to wonder how much the warmth and appeal of many older well recorded LPs from the 60s, etc., is due to the fact that they were LPs so much as the fact that these recordings were mastered using the analog tape and tube recording systems of t... | |
| Why vinyl? I think if they just packaged CDs into larger format LP-like packaging with some interesting artwork, etc., like the olden days, I would be very happy. I have thought about storing CDs of albums that I burn myself back in the original LP covers in... | |
| Review: Ohm Acoustics Walsh 5 Series 3 Speaker Here's what they look like.http://cgim.audiogon.com/i/vs/s/f/1205601379.jpg | |
| What matters most for an enjoyable home listen? Uru975, I agree.One thing I'm hoping to find out here is whether people really think the digital/analog issue is really that important. To me it is not. If you have a good performance that is well recorded on a good system, I am pretty much where ... | |
| What matters most for an enjoyable home listen? The glass of beer/wine is a good add for me as well!My wife doesn't like loud music anyway, and I do not generally want distractions while listening, so I'd pass on the sweetie thing in general while listening.Live concerts/performances, different... | |
| Why vinyl? Agree with ojgalli 100% + very good point!With good playback equipment (ie your medium to higher-end home stereo/audio system) mastering and production is by far more important than delivery medium.There are some very old recordings that are full ... | |
| Why vinyl? Digital gets a bad rap. The current CD format is 25 years old already (amazing, isn't it). 331/3 Lps were the bomb for only about 30 years. I have many CDs that sound better than many LPs.The medium is not so important as the will of the manufactu... | |
| Why vinyl? 1) cheap used2) very good sound is possible3) older coots like me have a big investment in vinyl from the olden days already so why not more?4) larger format with artwork that adds to the package and text fonts large enough to read. | |
| Is there a very nice SS amp around 1K? Good customer service is certainly a big factor!The piece you are looking at has received many positive reviews form many very satisfied owners, so I have no doubt it represents a good value in new gear with the features that matter to you in your... | |
| Is there a very nice SS amp around 1K? Another thing I could say in favor of the Odyssey is that a lot of people have reviewed it very highly on audioreview.com. Many positive, consistent reviews on a piece of equipment from people who actually own and use it is worth way more than any... | |
| Is there a very nice SS amp around 1K? My two cents if it might help:Blindjim:The Odyssey Stratos looks very nice on paper. I have never heard it so I cannot comment on that.If you must have balanced connections, like the Odyssey, and are not comfortable with pre-owned, I think you sho... | |
| am/fm/CD in-dash for car? It's in. Very nice! Lots of pretty, bright, flashing lights and features! Easy to use. Sounds pretty good. Definitely worth $120. |
