| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? I acquired my 100S3's second hand first as a test. THese may have been somewhat broken in by the prior owner but nit certain. Totally foreign sound at first listen. Then I gradually got tuned in and tweaked. Based on that, then eventually I bought... | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow Here's some info on Luxury Goods. Magicos qualify I would say. CLearly, so do "luxury cars".It is what it is. Value is in the eye of the consumer.I love my Toyota Avalon! | |
| The Problem with Synergistic Research "It is worth noting, that not all companies have such a short product cycles. "Glad someone pointed that out!FOr example, OHM Walsh speakers have been around for over 30 years and are currently in their 4th revision level I believe. I have owned t... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Moth my current OHMs sounded totally foreign to me when I first hooked them up despite having owned Walsh 2s for years. The thought that they sounded like crap at first listen probably crossed my mind. It's a combo of the speakers breaking in and ... | |
| Thoughts from THE Show, is $29k the new $10k? "Anyone over 50 years of age can not tell the difference between $10K and $100K of speaker. It is a fact of aging."Not exactly. Ability to hear high frequencies diminishes with age usually the case with those over 50 like myself, but most can stil... | |
| Fuses that matter. "Hey with all this continuing banter about nothing.When do you guys have time to LISTEN to the components you know so well, let alone tweek them "I can only speak for myself. I often banter while I listen.I'd much rather listen than dabble with fu... | |
| Fuses that matter. Sorry, Geoff. I'd consider that a form of obfuscation so it does not seem appropriate to me. You are much better suited to the task than me. I'd recommend picking a specific topic per thread not 9 seemingly random ones at once for best results. | |
| Ideas for Krell-ish sound, but less heat? What Class D amp did you try and with what pre-amp? Also what speakers?Thanks. | |
| Thoughts from THE Show, is $29k the new $10k? "My beef with the hifi scene is the utter lack of any interest in engaging the general public"HiFi scene: "buy expensive turntables and tube amps. THey sound the best."General public: "Where do I plug in my ear buds?" | |
| Fuses that matter. "Well, let me ask you, does any of the stuff you do technically give you any insights to say, tiny metal bowl resonators, Schumann frequency generators, vibration isolation, Shun Mook ebony discs, mind matter interaction, the physics of quantum do... | |
| decware err radial speakers Thanks Frazeur. That helps.They are very nice looking. I would expect good things. The comparison with newer similar OHMs should be of interest to others as well as me I would think.Given the driver configuration and the rated efficiency, I'm gues... | |
| Fuses that matter. GEoff,Risk assessment is a small part of what I do technically actually.But I am always glad to provide a good laugh! | |
| Fuses that matter. Science Fiction.Machina Dynamica.Has there ever been a more natural pairing?Once you've exhausted the possibilities based on science, science fiction is where it is at I suppose. | |
| The Problem with Synergistic Research I can understand how Sabai feels. You want to stay on the leading edge with a product line but can't afford to. I don't blame anyone. We can't always get what we want. Wait a bit and buy used only maybe? |
