| Sjofen The Clue speakers Reminds me of my $500/pr Triangle Titus XS speakers that are very average until you get them set up just right then wow. Also not bad close to rear wall. It mostly has to do with a more directional sound dispersion pattern with the tweeter than a ... | |
| Digitally remastered vinyl record? Seriously? Personally, I may never buy a "new" record again.But always on the lookout for old releases in good playing condition, especially when they come on the cheap.

Price I have paid ranges from $50 up to $200 each.I would say these make the same kind of differences to the same extent in my system as do the HF wires in others.If you loo... | |
| anyone ditch their metal speaker stands? More so than mere height, orientation of tweeter matters. FOr example sometimes lower stands with slight upward tilt might work best to let the floor work best to reinforce bass, not smear the soundstage and still have proper exposure to the tweet... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Everyone is entitled to their opinions. That's pretty much the whole story here.
