| Klipsch Speakers Dynamat works wonders ( you can also use Peel & Seal roofing repair tape ). Stop the resonance and vibration ! | |
| Cornwall IV or La Scala vs the big boys What I LOOK FOR with recorded music reproduction, Lascala, no doubt. I sit 8 ft away from them ( the same speaker ( portable ) PWK designed and built specifically for PA use during Rockefellers presidential campaigning ). He lost, and maybe becaus... | |
| Thiel 3.5 vs Klipsch Forte IV Speaker choice Thiel 3.5s should not be costing you that much. I see them all the time selling for under $1K, with the eq. Completely different presentation in sound between the two, and you likely know what they are. The Fortes will sound fabulous with your gea... | |
| Old school shootout: Snell A/III vs. Original B&W 801 Eric, I had the A111s, and I remember them having the rear tweeter, which were on / off switchable. Never did care one way or the other about the rear tweeter. Away from the wall, the bass would suffer....ime. I knew the Tandberg rep, and had som... | |
| Old school shootout: Snell A/III vs. Original B&W 801 Space was never a problem for me with the Snells, as they went against the back wall ( think Roy Allison ). Unfortunately, they lacked dynamics, with every amplifier I tried them with. I was / am a dynamics freak, and also owned a pair of Lascalas... | |
| IcePower1200AS: Who has heard or has them, with what system components? Do you love them? So, tweak1, are you saying the 1200 is allowing you to not miss the GAN 350 ? You have stated many times, there is no comparison....that the LSA GAN is far superior in every way. I am currently shopping for a Class D that I can happily live with. ... | |
| Why do Tube Amps sound more romantic v SS amps As stated above about the SIT3 " better resolution and transient speed ". IME, these two characteristics, along with lower noise ( electrically, mechanically and acoustically ), having tuneful, robust control of the woofers ( along with the dog ho... | |
| Experience with applying Kilmat to Cornwall IV Horns? To the OP...Enjoy ! My best, always, MrD. | |
| Experience with applying Kilmat to Cornwall IV Horns? I just completed damping a pair of Heresy III, and the client is " thrilled " at the added " cleanliness of the presentation ".....his words...... | |
| Orchard Audio - GaN Stereo Ultra Amp Tour and Reviews @orchardaudio I hope you are well. I would very much like to be part of this. Is the amp a BTL design ?, as these cannot run my Rels at high level, as this is my ( and Rels ) preference of connection. TY, MrD ( Dan ). | |
| Experience with applying Kilmat to Cornwall IV Horns? Never in my life have I, or my clients, not heard improvements by properly damping horns. | |
| What is your take on high efficient speakers vs. low efficient speakers? Ralph, your master tapes have the properties of high rez. I plug instruments and mics ( mixer / pre / amp ) using a pair of Lascalas, and these sources have greater dynamic range than all my recordings. I do not restrict myself listening to only t... | |
| What is your take on high efficient speakers vs. low efficient speakers? @tannoy56 Music listening, imo, is a very " personal subject ", and yes, experience might play a part in putting a successful system together. What have I learned over the years ?.....We are all seeking " our own " musical truth, which is easily s... | |
| Dust Settled Consensus- is the Benchmark AHB2 an Audiophile Amplifier? Some people have lost sight as to " what is it to be an audiophile " ? Anyone spending any amount of money to achieve greater detail retrieval from our recordings, ime, makes one an audiophile. Now, there are levels that people take, and it mostly... | |
| When someone tells you it's a $40,000 amp, does it sound better? I prefer the term " fan boys ", vs cult members, and you all know who you are. Just admit to it, and move on. I will not respond to anyone beyond this point. Enjoy ! Always, and my best to all. MrD. |
