| Amp pairings with Revel F35 I have not owned any Revel loudspeakers, but have " set up " many in my past. It has been my experience that going from one loudspeaker to another loudspeaker might require different locations in the same room ( six inches left to right, front to ... | |
| How much does volume matter when breaking in amps and cables? It is all quite real. Everything, ime, requires some time to break in, or " settle ", and this is determined by listening, nothing more, nothing less. No measurements, just listening. It is easier to hear, if ( 1 ) you have a system that is highly... | |
| How come Horn + woofer designs are not more popular? I am very happy to hear the K owners come on here and talk about their wonderful systems. Yes, I feel they are still amazing, especially with the updates, modifications and tweaks shared by the Klipsch community. But a question for gw _smith. What... | |
| Fan on Amp Unbeatable If you are serious about selling your Marantz 500, they are currently asking big bucks for them right now. Go look on the bay. Many of them go overseas ( I do not know why ), but they do. | |
| Ordered my new amp today... been a long road! as above. the lower the number the heavier the gauge. example - 10 gauge is a heavier gauge than 16 gauge. congrats on the new amp. | |
| Low Sensitivity Speakers Compression Issue. My friends at NorthStar Leading the Way were the US importer of Jadis, and I had the opportunity to be the " demo person " at the NY Waldorf, 1996 Stereophile Show. It was the debut of the Eurythmie horn speakers, and they were beautiful. My under... | |

| Black Ash..... Against. And look at some other colors, as an example, offered by Vivid with their Giya line. Speakers are generally large, and, pieces of furniture. Black has been offered for so many years now, and if not liked by someone, don't buy it. I apprec... | |
| How far have ss amps really come in the last twenty years? Ahofer, you never responded to my comment, as to why you own expensive audio gear ( what are your components ? ), as I suggested, simply for prestige. And comparing it to a watch ? Maybe, if it is all about prestige. I believe my comparisons were ... | |
| How far have ss amps really come in the last twenty years? Hearing amplifier differences to an educated ear is no different, than, to an experienced race car driver feeling a bit of difference on the accelerator pedal with a new small tweak done to the engine, which I have witnessed, living near Daytona. ... | |
| How come Horn + woofer designs are not more popular? roberjerman, excellent amplifier ! | |
| How far have ss amps really come in the last twenty years? Geoff, as often as I say it, but seriously. Twice, in my past, I admit, I could not hear any differences, using your Teleportation tweak. Personally, I knew a fella who claimed it is very real, and I never doubted him, as many people seem to do, w... | |
| How far have ss amps really come in the last twenty years? wolf, I understand I said it. I was creating a situation, an excuse, for roberjerman, as to why he always claims " he hears no difference between amplifiers ". I could have said he worked in construction as a jackhammer operator, without using ear... | |
| How far have ss amps really come in the last twenty years? Teo, I had a couple of Yamaha B2s in my time ( and a Sony vfet integrated ), and I really enjoyed them. They did not last as long for me as I would have liked, as they developed problems after long time ownership. Repair was nearly impossible to g... | |
| How far have ss amps really come in the last twenty years? snapsc, I was an amplifier junkie ( I suppose I still am ), that is why. A few years ago I had quite a bit more, but sold off many, much more of them higher end. Here is a list of what I still have, not in any order. Hafler DH 200, DH 220, DH 500,... |
