| Sat front row at the symphony... @frogman ....+1..... the " playing " of the instruments, through the conductor's direction, is why I attend performances. I listen for the playing, through my rig, as well. My best. MrD | |
| Why are these called 5 way binding posts? I count four! It was explained to me many years ago by an amp manufacturer, whom I forget, because you were able to use a spade ( or loop/hole ) to the shaft, and a banana plug, simultaneously........Is this true ? I am only repeating what I heard. MrD. | |
| Sat front row at the symphony... @viber6 , my friend.....as always, your personal listening experiences are yours, and that is all....yours. Your system, as good as you feel it is, would not satisfy me, the way my system satisfies me, as I look for and appreciate other important ... | |
| Sat front row at the symphony... If we go back to the start of the thread and read the original post by mikeydee, I believe the statement was all about the enjoyment, and the " impact " the experience made to him. We come to the argument that the best seat in the house is at the ... | |

| We should reject hard-to-drive speakers more often Ralph, so the answer is = none. My best, MrD. | |
| What can beat Wilson XVX for less money? Any listener, not caring about what the musician ( s ) intended, tells me all I need to know about the listener. Good luck with that, and Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| We should reject hard-to-drive speakers more often What tube amps ( tubes used in the output stage ) can " adequately " drive 1 ohm Scintillas ? I am not aware of any, and would like to know, so I may sleep better tonight. My best, MrD. | |
| Volti Experience ! @riaa_award_collectors_on_facebook I do not speak to viber, as I assume he has jumped on the Jay wagon, which is the furthest of any group I would jump in on. I am enjoying my LSs. Enjoy, and always, my best. MrD. |
