| I heard the Box If it’s a box speaker you are always hearing the box to some extent. It is there for a reason of course. Safe to say in general the boxes used for good quality speakers have come a long way. There is more than one way to use a box. For an example ... | |
| I heard the Box If you don’t want to hear boxes there are other choices. It’s not the end of the world. | |

| Raven Blackhawk LE... am I going to be disappointed? Seems like @b_limo is enjoying trying all these things out. Not sure he really wants to cut to the chase, assuming he knows what it is he is seeking prior to hearing it. Can’t blame him. New toys are fun! I’d play more myself if I had the time. | |

| Townshend Maximum Supertweeters Yes most hifi over the years including digital is designed to work well from 20 hz to 20khz the standard range usually considered appropriate for human ears. Anything above that is even more of a potshot than that extreme already may be.A lot of p... | |
| Townshend Maximum Supertweeters High frequencies in general are directional and more of them will tend to shrink soundstage FBOFW all else remaining the same. That’s a fact. | |
| Best bang for buck integrated amp for $500 I had Triangle Titus for many years. They did fine with most any amp but also liked a bit more power and current still to perform best. Most speakers do. THing is some will prefer to hear the sound of their amps more than what speakers are capable... |
