| What do I buy? Klipsch vs. Definitive Technology No, I don't have them crossed over or anything. I'm just an intermediate audio guy so I don't mess with that kind of stuff much. Just the positive and negative wires running from the receiver to the speakersIf I'm understanding you, you've never p... | |
| High End and cables and tin ears.... I use Signal Cables in my system. They sound good to me.That's really all that matters. | |
| Virtue Audio Speaker Cables I have, and was pleasantly surprised with their build quality and sound.They ended up replacing both my MIT 750 and Signal Ultra speaker cables.To my ears the Virtue are more open through the mids than both cables, giving vocals a great sense of r... | |
| Is seller negative feedback a deal-breaker ? I'd agree that reading the comments will likely tell you a lot about the circumstances and the persons involved.I also check the "response" feedback from the person who recieved the negative. Did they retaliate, try to explain, or simply leave non... | |
| Now Hear This I would say that PSB speakers are generaly warmer than NHT.I'd agree with Rbstehno, who found the Totem sound less fatiguing than NHT. I find PSB somewhat warmer than Totem. | |
| Bookshelf Speakers with “Big” sound? I'll second the Totem Mani-2 suggestion.Uncanny large sound with incredible bass.The first time I heard them I thought a sub was hidden somewhere... | |
| I always do something stupid... I've had my share of near misses.Now I take my time. Then double check.Then I sit down to listen.Then I get up and check again.Then I make myself a drink and wonder how it might sound if I turned it on.Then I go take a nap. | |
| Artists that sound alike - your best match-up Joni Mitchell and Colleen Brown. I've actually mistaken one for the other... | |
| Transport The digital out is only to send the digital signal to a seperate dac. | |
| Salvaging worn cd's... DiscDoctor worked very well for me too. I've fixed at least a dozen disks, and only one that did not work out. | |
| New fantastic room but system pissing off neighbor For future referance, you might consider a proactive aproach...Whenever I've noticed someone moving in, I introduce myself, welcome them to the building and spend a few minutes being friendly. Before parting, I mention that I enjoy listening to mu... | |
| totem arro I have to admit, I've got a bit of sellers remorse for the Arros I recently sold.Very transparent with excellent imaging and a sound that is very "free of the box".True, the bottom end does not go terribly low or loud, but it's very tight. You can... | |
| Do amps sound better when left on for 30 minutes ? Larryrx7,Where did you find the extra hour each day?If you're willing to part with it, I'll pay big $$$! | |
| Recommended systems - components for Car Stereo I've seen Mark Levinson car amps and matching bass drivers on e-bay. Usually pulled from a written-off/parted out Lexus. | |
| Breaking In New Speakers... Just a note on the "face to face with one wired out of phase" technique...It's best to set the volume BEFORE you face them into each other.Once the drivers are cancelling each other out, they won't sound very loud, but may in fact be working quite... |
