| Looking for floorstanders in the 7-8K range? I have the Sig IIs, and I also really like them for the money. With regard to some of the advantages you noticed of the Thiels over the Legacys, which I do not doubt, I wonder if some of that can be attributed to the quality of the capacitors in t... | |
| How big should center spkr be to set to "large"? I played around with it some more tonight, watching 5.1 movies and a Black Crows concert on HD cable.Actually, tonight I could hear no ill effect from setting the center speaker to "large". It did't seem to cause any loss of clarity in the center ... | |
| How big should center spkr be to set to "large"? Well, now we are getting back to my original question.The thing is, I do NOT use a sub. And it seems when I set the center speaker to "large" in the receiver menu, I lose a lot of overall bass. I think that is because in 5.1, the center channel is... | |
| How big should center spkr be to set to "large"? Correction...Mine are the Legacy Signature II, which do not have the kevlar mid-woofer. But they seem pretty good to me. Any time I listen to other speakers of any similar price, I find myself thinking of what aspects of the sound I would be givin... | |
| How big should center spkr be to set to "large"? D edwards,Well, actually, I aquired the Legacy Signatures some time ago, when I acutally had some money, and before I had 2 kids in college, as I do now!I have been aware of the Legacy center channel speakers, but they were pretty pricey. I was no... | |
| Anti-cables vs CC89259 Mine didn't impress me that much until I cut off the standard spades, and connected the bare cables. They are far better now. I don't think the standard spades are very good, at least when I got mine, which was over a year ago. | |
| How big should center spkr be to set to "large"? Sorry, no such agreement here, due to financial considerations!! My question is just trying to get at what the best setting might be for my setup, and so far, it seems the consensus here is that I should set it to small. My front L/R are Legacy Si... | |
| How big should center spkr be to set to "large"? I also have full-range floorstanders for front L/R, but I don't have a sub, so I can't set them to small. | |
| Signal Cable or Audio Art Cable for best budget... Well, I did get a set of Audio Art Cable IC-1, and I'm pretty impressed. They are noticably clearer than the Blue Jeans cable, and smoother than the Tara Labs RSC Prime. The mids are very nice, but the highs are still there nicely. What has made t... | |
| I've come to the realization... I just picked up a set from a fairly new outfit by the name of Audio Art Cable. They only have two ics, the IC1(copper) and IC-3(copper/silver coated). Mine are the IC-1s for $45. They have gotten some very positive reviews. The reason I mention t... | |
| Need best mid-price ICs for new ss M/C amp... Well, I have had a set of Tara Labs RSC Prime ICs around the house for some time, and, on a hunch, I replaced the center channel Blue Jeans cable with the Tara. Wow, I noticed an immediate improvement in the clarity of dialog in movies, which was ... | |
| Signal Cable or Audio Art Cable for best budget... Hmm...thanks, never heard of those. I will check them out. | |
| Signal Cable or Audio Art Cable for best budget... Well, well! I just swapped out the Blue Jeans cable on the center channel with an old(about 10 years) Tara Labs RSC Prime ic that I had on hand. Whoa, the highs and the dialog were instantly clearer. Still not as good as I would like them, though.... | |
| Denon 3805, muddy voices. I have been having the same problem with my Sony DA4ES on center channel dialog. Muddy, indistinct, unintelligible dialog. My Legacy Sig III mains are crystal clear, however.I even bought a new center channel speaker and speaker cable, which has h... | |
| Legacy Classics and bottom end? Hmm. I have a set of Legacy Classics, as well as a set of Legacy Signature IIIs, which are NOT ported. I have the Sig IIIs bi-wired with Tara Labs RSC bi-wire, and the sound is pretty good, except that mine have the polypropolene mid drivers rathe... |
