| The DAC Scam - Almost everyone believes the hype I have had several dacs through the years, nothing over $1k retail. They all sounded different in one way or the other. Warmth, coldness, detail, tone, spatiality, dynamics, etc. But most important to me, mostly, is the PRAT of the device (discuss... | |
| Vintage tube amplifier repair St Pete, Sarasota, Tampa area A little late, but....my tech is in Winter Springs, Fl (Orlando). Kris Rhoades-Fine Tuned Audio. Awesome guy....as a backup if the others do not work out. My best, MrD. | |
| This Might Not Exist, Any reasonably priced, smaller speakers with 100db Sensitivity? Klipsch Heresy, any series (based on price/new,used)...I am partial to Klipsch....I like what they do. Good luck, MrD. | |
| Which subwoofer should I get? I would recommend a pair of RSL 12 S subs. I have had many of the subs listed above, and I have to say, the RSLs are "musical", if anyone could know the meaning of what this term says. Very hard to match subwoofers to my Klipsch Lascala dog houses... | |
| A list of efficient speakers at ~$5K a pair. My question would be this. Based on your "music listening" preferences, what sound and performance characteristics would you like more of than what the Fritz are providing to you? What areas of improvement are you looking to achieve? If dynamics, ... | |
| Is it time that Klipsch Heritage marketing a subwoofer? I know this is an older thread, but I replaced a pair of subs (brand not important) with a single RSL 12S, and it such an awesome match with my Lascalas and my room. | |
| When I listen to my system....... Interesting article in PMA magazine titled: "If You’re An Audiophile, Watch Your Back". I believe many who post here experiences much of what is spoken, including me. A good read. Enjoy! MrD. | |
| HiFi satisfaction and/ or Musical enjoyment To the OP. Welcome and thank you for sharing. I love music, and although I have a system that completely involves and engages me, I seem to enjoy music everywhere...car, pool, etc. I have enough gear for several systems, but I only listen to one..... | |
| When I listen to my system....... "None of us are listening to music on our systems". Keep telling yourself that. I am done with this ridiculous commentary of yours, however, I still wish you my best. MrD. | |
| Oh my goodness! @immattewj, people spending good money on gear, whether to listen to the gear, or the music, or both, should have a room to accommodate the expenditure. I have a dedicated listening room and have always for 55 + years (I am 70). It allows me to he... | |
| When I listen to my system....... Correction. Laptops are now being used instead of boom boxes....I am dating myself. | |
| When I listen to my system....... So, I suppose @inagroove , that what you are spending all of your money on with equipment / gear / room acoustics is to reproduce something (music) that is fake? Why not just have a boom box, which btw, many musicians in some instances use to play... | |
| Oh my goodness! To the OP, welcome, and do not let one or two of these posters dissuade you from posting here. Nice story, and a meaningful life lived, so far. If you are happy with your system, more power to you. Many posters here are not happy with their system... | |
| Klipsch La Scala or Altec 838 speakers Congrats. Personally, I would not change anything at this time, just enjoy them. Get them situated in your listening room relative to your listening seat....dial them in. My 1st thing to do would be to buy Dynamat and tame the ringing of the mid h... | |
| When I listen to my system....... @inagroove I regularly listen to mediocre recordings with excellent musicianship and composition, so I am not quite sure what you mean, other than to guess, you might be the type of audiophile who listens differently than I do. As long as you are ... |
