| Cover songs that are better than the originals. Many great renditions of Hallelujah, but I like Jeff Buckley ( from Grace ), with K.D. Lang as a close 2nd. But as I said, many good performances of this. Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Klipsch Forte III--Pleasantly Surprised @oldschoolsounds, many speaker companies use a " ring " between the driver and the cabinet ( foam, rubber, paper/cardboard ), but I believe it is used to suppress energy from the driver to the cabinet, and the reverse, to suppress energy from the ... | |
| TASH SULTANA Watched and listened to all of her youtube stuff. She is a talent for sure, and has passion beyond most. Thx again yyzsantabarbara & amg56 ! Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Horns: Why don't they image well? Is this thread serious ? Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Klipsch Forte III--Pleasantly Surprised wolf, a typo I am sure. Detained, detailed. I am happy, if you guys want to do damping, that is up to you. I am happy if you do not. It was, and still is, a very significant tweak Klipsch owners have been doing for 50 or so years ( I am not the on... | |
| Klipsch Forte III--Pleasantly Surprised Remove the mid horns of the Forte 111s, and dampen them from the rear, using a product like dynamat. Do it in abundance and evenly, re-install them, and you will hear gobs more detail. Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Klipsch Heresy III vs Forte III I am extremely pleased that listeners are finally taking Klipsch speakers seriously ( specifically the Heritage line ). I have been using and listening to them for almost 50 years, have been modifying them for almost that long, and have provided m... | |
| Klipsch Forte III--Pleasantly Surprised My response will lack brevity, as indicated by wolf. The Forte line ( and Chorus line ) are not bass reflex designs. They use sub bass radiators ( rear ) which are operating on the acoustic pressure being generated by the active woofers ( front ) ... | |
| Serious Passive Preamp question I will not name the units, because I know and respect the manufacturers, and will not harm sales by them in any way. My justification and value of my opinions to any of you is unimportant to me. I am just stating the facts of what I am hearing. En... | |
| Serious Passive Preamp question Some months back I went passive, and found I was fortunate that my gear ( sources and amp ) were very passive capable. I had a tube pre and a ss pre, both of very high standards and recognized in the audio community for being excellent ( which I w... | |
| Klipsch Palladium P39F and Probably the Entire line Major issue! " And even with the detached surrounds they still sound great ". Really ? Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Focal Aria 936 / Elac Adante AF-61 / Von Schweikert VR-33 , impressions, thoughts? They retail at $2499.95 each, now they are $1999.95 ea., on their web site. I suppose they are on sale ( it seems everyone is now selling them at 4K ). As far as they being a matched pair, knowing Yamaha, I am sure the tolerances are quite close b... | |
| Serious Passive Preamp question I went passive recently, but held on to my preamp until I was sure I was happy with the passive. Passive is not for everybody. IMO, I do not think it wise to do the trade. Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Focal Aria 936 / Elac Adante AF-61 / Von Schweikert VR-33 , impressions, thoughts? Be careful when ordering. None of the sellers are indicating " each ", as these retail for $5000. a pair. A few folks ordered, thinking they were buying a pair ( the ads say " speakers ", plural ), but they only received one speaker. Just what I a... | |
| Klipsch Forte III--Pleasantly Surprised @br3098 The Klipsch marketing department obviously added some models to the Heritage line, signifying they were / are built in the USA. As a Klipsch Heritage " old timer ", the models listed in the post I made available above are the " Heritage "m... |
