Mapleshade boards under speakers
Chashas1..If you find the maple isnt all its suppose to be like I did ....I went to a local headstone company and bought a left over scrap 1" thick slab for $15.00..it measured 4'-24"...Cut it myself using a circular saw w/diamond blade..cant get ... 
Are Harbeths really "all that?"
"EVERYBODY knows that ceramic or metal drivers with complex crossovers in skinny, dead cabinets are the ONLY way to make speakers that sound like music".... No one has, or is saying that. Dont get your skinny up..no need to be sarcastic....The th... 
Are Harbeths really "all that?"
NO!!!I just heard the 40.1 demoed a couple weeks ago...Old technology and extremely overpriced compared to whats out there 
Mapleshade boards under speakers
I agree with the above..I tried maple w/brass under my Dynaudios on hardwood floors and hated it.Bought into the hype AGAIN!!! 
Dynaudio C4 speaker equipment matching
Jon47..Again, I agree with Gundam..Sell the Nordost and get treatments if $$ is a factor..Thats the starting point before you change gear or cables etc.Second, speaker/seat placement..The C4s are a hard speaker to get right in most rooms and ive s...

JON47..Im running Kubala Sosna at present(which ive borrowed)..IMO(all this is just my opinion) the best Ive tried w/the Dyn C4s..I ran Cardas golden cross and loved them as well.Cant go wrong with the Cardas golden line except the neutral as seve...

Xti16..Try the golden Cardas line,you'll be surprised how your C1s will come to life..(forget Neutral ref as stated by the above dealer post) 
Dynaudio C4 speaker equipment matching
I totally agree w/Dedicatedaudio ..Ive run Cardas golden cross cables with my C4s.. Nordost IMO just suck w/Dynaudio..Like I said room treatment and cables 
Dynaudio C4 speaker equipment matching
Room treatment a must!!!!..Im not a fan of Plinius with the C4s..Pass labs is the ticket if your set on solid state IMO(x250.5 or better x350.5)..I would also dump the Nordost cables,I ran them with my C4s for about a week .Hated them..A nice tube... 
Jadis with Telefunken 12AX7/ECC83 tubes
I agree..I never liked Tele tubes in my Jadis..I run 1950s Mullard 12ax7s and black plate RCAs with greater presentation..Well worth the price of admission.. 
Sim W-5 vs Pass X250 / X350 with Dyn C-4
IMO I would go with the X250.5 before I would buy an older 350..I have C4s and the 250.5 mates wonderfully..Im running a MC 402 at the moment but Pass is back in the headlights for me 
Upgrade speaker cables OR amp for Dynaudio C4's?
Pdreher..No I didnt sell my C4s, I pulled the ad,I had a pair of Avalons picked out but they were sold from under me..Such is life..The market is too soft right now, the C4s are being hammered and sold well under market..No point in going backward... 
Wilson's new speaker the Sasha is coming.
Dylanhenry,,are you a Wilson dealer???There are alot out there that totally disgaree with your remarks including myself..Chill out

Pass Labs X250.5!!!! 
Better to change Speakers first or new Preamp+amp
A 12x12 room is the absolute worst room you could start with..A square room is something to avoid like the plague,most if not all know that..I cant imagine having a house with a room 50' wide either...
