| Has anyone on Audiogon listen to Line Magnetic 755 Whatever they sound like I love the look and concept. Are they $8K each or per pair? | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? Newbee,Substitute "directional" for "dynamic" and I would agree with most of what you said.I am not sure directional speakers are necessarily easier to set up with adequate results than omnis. I think it depends. In smaller rooms with limited plac... | |
| Best Rock Album in 2012 2009's "Embryonic" by The Flaming Lips is one of my favorites in recent years and worth a plug here. | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? "Regarding discussion of various technologies which produce the "holographic" soundstage, I have found no greater technology than the Omnidirectional speaker."Agree, though as mentioned it is still quite possible with more directional designs as w... | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? SAbai,I am not very familiar with the Bybee products. They seem to have a dedicated following. Are they worth the money? Could similar results be produced somehow for less? | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? "With my system, you can move around the room and all the elements remain in place. It is quite uncanny. "Sabai, what speakers are you using and what is the configuration in the room relative to the listening position or area?Conventional speakers... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Jwc, Talk to John Strohbeen at Ohm for upgrade or trade in options. Which Tech Hifi did you get your Es at? I worked at the New Brunswick nj store around that time. The Ohms were the house brand of sorts and always sounded best to me. I bought my ... | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? " any yutz with ears knows that specs are meaningless"Well, then I guess I am not a yutz with ears, neophyte or otherwise. GEoff, with you as ones guru, I am sure most anything of actual value is pretty meaningless. | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Jwc,Can I assume your OHMs are original Walsh 2s from the 80s with the first generation CLS drivers (ie not newer or updated drivers on Walsh 2 cabinets)?I had original Walsh 2s for over 25 years prior to my current OHMs with the 3rd generation CL... | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? I do think that clean power, however that is achieved in any particular listener's case, helps. I have heard this to be the case even when I first introduced my modest Monster power strip into my system.There are many threads here on A'gon about t... | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? I have also heard some small monitors do holography very well in smaller rooms. My Triangle Titus monitors do it very well even when I used to run them off very modest vintage Tandberg or Carver amplification (even with no Carver holography engage... | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? For the ultimate in out of the box holography (for a price), audition an mbl omni system properly set up. That is the best I have ever heard overall, but pricey and in a large showroom with many feet distance from rear and side walls.The OHM Walsh... | |
| Why does Computers - Amp - Speakers sound better? In any particular case, either turntable or digital might sound better. It all depends on how well each is set up to meet the needs of the listener.In general, it is harder (and probably more costly in general these days) to achieve a quality turn... | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? Also no doubt your ears being truly tuned in to what is happening during playback helps. Lots od ways to acnieve that but low stress/a state of true relaxation helps |
