| Suggestions for a dedicated rock system If you want to go the vintage route, look for a pair of OHM L, H, C2, or CAM monitors.Any of these might be had for <$1000, essentially teh same price as when new 40 years ago, but refurbished with new drivers and parts. Check with John Strohbe... | |
| Class D is just Dandy! class D is not as musical as a class A amps. You have not heard a good one with a pair of Ohm Walsh speakers perhaps? | |
| Thiel Customer Service - New ownership is terrible!!! - WHAT HAPPENED TO THIS COMPANY ? Brightness often results from an amp’s inability to drive a speaker properly.Thiels have the rep of being top notch but only when matched with the right robust amps capable of driving them correctly. | |
| Should I re-rip? You are better off with lossless flac for streaming. Consumes less disk space and supports flexible tagging of metadata. Data content is the same.I went the other way being a purist and starting ripping with .wav, then switching and converting to ... | |

| It's Simple Yes simple in theory. | |
| How Do Ohm Walsh Tall 3000, 3010, 4000, 4012 Speakers Compare To Current Design Speakers? OPLots of info on these have been posted on these forums in recent years. Have you searched the forums? I don’t know what else new can be added unless specific questions. Most vendors release new models with different design and sound all the time... | |
| New system has fatiguing, harsh high frequency sounds. How to fix? Thats what I do. 2 channel stereo hifih only. No surround. Never did never will. I like good sound not sound effects. | |
| I have a few things i dont need, how do i get them gone? Its always about the right price. Auction on ebay starting with $1 bid. It will sell for what its worth if described properly with needed pictures. Next best is yard sales to get rid of unwanted stufff. Have the mindset that everything must go not... | |
