| Ascend Acoustics Sierra 2 vs. Dynaudio Focus 140/160 FYI guy local to me had to lower his 140s to 600 before they sold. Just FYI. | |
| Ascend Acoustics Sierra 2 vs. Dynaudio Focus 140/160 The Focus 140 is a fun speaker. Got a mid/upper bass boost that makes it really fun for more modern rock, pop, country. I enjoyed mine a lot. They will not play bass heavy music extremely loud nor are they the most detailed or refined. They are ve... | |
| Older subwoofers better than newer subwoofers! @toro3 , Thanks for that! I have a Rythmic sub I bought used some months ago and while sounds good it just does not seem tight enough. With all the talk about how articulate the Rythmic subs are I have been diss appointed. I didn’t know about the... | |
| Fee for home audition If it’s been said and I missed it sorry but… I don’t think the idea of the 5% is ridiculous but for one hour is crazy. If it was for a weekend or week or 2 weeks. Yeah I could get that and it comes off the purchase price that you obviously can’t ... | |
| How old is too old (for SS gear)? My 1975 ish Sansui is awesome. I have the paperwork from some work done about 10 years ago but it is not extensive. All big caps etc look original with no obvious signs of failure. Perfect channel match as far as my ear can tell. I debated but dec... | |
| Streamers made in America? I am absolutely all in for buying local and buying USA. That said I won’t pay multiples for the same performance. If I was super wealthy would I? Maybe, not sure. | |
| We should reject hard-to-drive speakers more often Great examples of each but I will say I’ve never really liked any super efficient speakers. I heard some Cornwall 4 when I was buying a sub for a guy and they sounded great for the little bit I heard them but playing music I don’t listen to at not... | |
| Fee for home audition @grislybutter “I don’t know any other country where you can do this, order things, send them back, take it home from the dealer to try, the US is an amusement park for adults. “ I don’t necessarily think that’s a USA thing. I lived in Communis... | |
| What are some good things to do when going to an audition @tee_dee , 20% is not out of the ballpark at all and even more sometimes. I would start with something like 30% and get down to an agreement from there. Why would audio equipment be different from buying a car, house or anything else? They don’t ... | |
| What are some good things to do when going to an audition The few times a year I get stoned every damn thing sounds amazing! I would be duped real quick. Haha | |
| Fee for home audition So this D bag wants to charge you over $600 to try a streamer in your house for an hour! Seems like a totally reasonable request even for a weekend or more. Move on brutha. | |
| Fee for home audition If a dealer has been helpful and I’ve spent their time I would not look elsewhere but look for a reasonable discount from them. If you want to try this streamer I would call multiple dealers around the country and get the best deal you can get wit... | |
| Made the move: Focal Maestro 3 to Focal Maestro EVO They are both Utopias? Utopia or Evo Utopia Maestro. | |
| Fee for home audition Yeah no go for me. Also once you do that you’ve pretty much nixed any negotiating power you might have had. Is it a Bluesound level component or a muli thousand dollar one? | |
| Holo Audio Red Streamer Ahh thank you sir. I went to head fi and went to the last page of the thread. 1st thing I read answered my question about playing off a hard drive. Appears you can do this. |
