| Cambridge Audio Azur 851N Network Player I am completely on board with millercarbon. I do believe in fuse upgrades, as they improve sq. However, fuses are there for a reason, and if you go up in value too much, you are risking the fuse not doing its job, during an electrical cycle of sor... | |
| Lightning quick DYNAMIC amp in the under $1000 range bstat, wonderful. I believe jetter ( who is, unfortunately, angry with me at the moment ), stated above, he was enjoying the Waudio pcs. I find that the iec plug might be a little loose at the amp end, and if you find this to be the case, trim a b... | |
| Speaker of the Century Award Goes To .... DS, What did you say ? I can't hear you...So many loud sounds around us in everyday life. Horns from nearby cars, construction site machinery, planes flying above ( likely near an airport ), live unamplified music, lawn mowers, NYC subway platform... | |
| Integrated with passive preamp section. Good or bad idea, or both ? Audio Research makes them. I had one on loan to me, so I know first hand. I believe more companies do as well. | |
| Speaker of the Century Award Goes To .... Eric, I appreciate your friendly and adult response, as I did not indicate anything negative, only to say, what I like. And yes, horns are an old design. But, as I mentioned on another thread a few weeks ago ( I believe it was your thread " design... | |
| Speaker of the Century Award Goes To .... Eric, I understand you are in an apartment, and your post does cater to listeners of the same sort. But, I feel, if a speaker ( system, actually ) cannot handle musical peaks in the 110db range ( of course, using recordings that have wonderful dyn... | |
| Speaker advice for listening to Blues music Cedar, thank you. Yes, the Heresy needs a sub or 2, and so does the Lascala. But the larger mid horn, and the bass horn ( also known as the dog house to us Klipshers ) on the Lascala, is a different animal altogether. But do what you are doing, an... | |
| Speaker advice for listening to Blues music br3098. You meant to say : There is no reason why these speakers will " not " sound great with your Primaluna. A newbie might not take what you said the proper way. All good, and I am sorry for re - appearing here. | |
| Most “disappeared” speakers. I agree with br3098 and Douglas Schroeder. Attention to details, such as proper room set up, and any speaker can do a disappearing act. | |
| Klipsch La Scala half-wall corners? The Lascala’s do not benefit with corners the way the Klipschorns do. You would still need a pair of very fast and tight subwoofers to extend the presentation to full range with the last octave. My opinion, and, my experience. Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Speaker advice for listening to Blues music Maggies are not electrostatic designs. They are a planar; a panel speaker. Cedar, why not have 2 systems set up ( 2 amps, 2 pr speakers ) ? A second for your poorer recordings. You will go nuts trying to make poorer recordings sound good on a high... | |
| Speaker advice for listening to Blues music Cedar, you are welcome to take a drive to me, and listen to a pair of Heresy 2s, and my other, main system, with my Lascalas. You can pm me for the details. Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Speaker advice for listening to Blues music I also believe, that with you being on stage, playing through "equipment ", has a bit of a livelier, punchier, more dynamic sound, than many hifi systems, and, hifi speakers. The JBLs mentioned by nonoise, or some Klipsch models, can be used as a ... | |
| Speaker advice for listening to Blues music Orange City, Florida, south a bit from Daytona Beach, off of I-4. Speaking of Alvin Lee. His " The Bluest Blues " is awesome. My systems are very revealing, and if I am listening to a bad recording ( poorly mic’d, over compressed, ridiculous use o... | |
