| Lumin X1 latest Review like we have been saying Quite interesting how three_easy_payments question has been ignored, not once, but twice. If OP has no experience with a comparison between his Lumin product and T + A DAC 8 DSD, why not politely say so. I too am interested in an answer. I pair my... | |
| Maggie owners (past, present, future) what do (did) you love and or dislike about them? @rpmartins1, I'd really like to hear about your experience, especially comparing the 3 speakers you mention. Right now, I'm still listening to my MA Golds. But thinking a lot about a pair of OB. | |
| Maggie owners (past, present, future) what do (did) you love and or dislike about them? Over the weekend I moved my stereo to a bedroom, 12 x 10 x 8. I know the 3.7i's are too big for this room. For the first time I plan to do some room acoustic treatment with some diffusion panels and see what happens. Without it, though, I'm enjoyi... | |
| Maggie owners (past, present, future) what do (did) you love and or dislike about them? Thanks for all the input. I'm glad to hear my room is adequate for the 3.7i's but not too thrilled to hear my amp @ 400 watts into 4 Ohms is just marginally good enough. For visual sake if you're standing in my living room facing the street, my HT... | |
| Maggie owners (past, present, future) what do (did) you love and or dislike about them? Thanks all for the input. I'm not in the market for a new amp. The one I have now does 400 watts into 4 Ohms. @ jazzman463, thanks for broadening my horizons. Before your post, I'd never heard of OB speakers. I'm liking the price quotes but so far... | |
| Maggie owners (past, present, future) what do (did) you love and or dislike about them? LOL, audio nervosa. I believe the majority of us are afflicted. You say they were hard to drive, what amp did you drive yours with? I have a Primare A32 amp capable of delivering 400W per channel to 4 ohms. Adequate? | |
| Weight, Clamp or stabilizer? I bought an acrylic matt, but can't tell it's full impact yet but could hear it's more detailed than my original rubber matt. Instead of the SVS subwoofer feet, I've opted for a set of 4 Isoacoustics Orea bronze as replacement feet. http://www.iso... | |
| Weight, Clamp or stabilizer? @hifigem, that $1K periphery outer ring clamp is way out of my budget. I can be happy hearing what my modest setup has to offer without it. But for those who can afford it, I'm sure they'll be happy you shared the info. | |
| Weight, Clamp or stabilizer? I have the Shure m97xe high-performance magnetic phono cartridge. The arm is the original arm. I found instructions for cartridge and my specific turntable's arm setup online in the operating instruction manual, rare and detailed. | |
| Weight, Clamp or stabilizer? Thanks everyone. That’s a lot of information to process. Since my turntable is almost 40 years old there’s a chance a weight could be detrimental to its bearing so I’m going to pass. I’ve changed out all master sleeves, cleaned my records, and hav... | |
| Best sound in old late 70s early 80s receivers I know this thread is old but has anyone had Legendary Amps.com do any work for you and if so, how’d you like it? Also, what are the sound differences between vintage Yamaha, Tandberg and Luxman (house sound). | |
| Ingress Audio Engineering I bought the Gaia II's for my 60 lb Monitor Audio Gold's. Experimented connecting them to the metal speaker base's then directly to the speaker. Found they sound more focused when attached directly to the speaker. Since my floor is carpeted with a... | |
| Ingress Audio Engineering @geoffkait got snapshots of those springs. Sure would be nice if we could post pics. Things would be so much easier to comprehend. I used the bike inner tubes under maple plywood bases for about a year. Once the component was placed on top of Bar... | |
| Ingress Audio Engineering Like I said, (I) read these forums to learn. So what’s the answer @geoffkait? I’ll take a stab, increases wow, hum and/or flutter? (shrug). Enlighten me :)@elizabeth dirt cheap is ALWAYS welcome! | |
| Ingress Audio Engineering I also have a PS Audio P5 power plant. Would anyone bother to put rollers under it? What about a turntable? I plan to get rollers for the speakers at a later time. |
