Do speaker cables really make a difference ? Back in the day ...... and we liked it. (It's a link) | |
Lyra Kleos arrives after eight months. . Worth the wait? First impressions Thanks for the review. Keep us posted as it breaks in. Upscale Audio and MusicDirect both report that they keep it in stock and is available for immediate delivery. Strange that you had to wait so long. | |
Magnepan LRS in the house! Enjoy your new LRS! When your LRS+ come in, and break in, I'd love to hear your impressions. I had SMG's, MMG's and 1.6's but retiring & downsizing left me with a listening room that was too small for the 1.6's. I was always floored by the... | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Started out with Beach Boys: "Holland" and "Pet Sounds" Then: Pink Floyd: "The Dark Side of the Moon" (mofi) taking it home. | |
Which ones should I choose? Tannoy Kensington Gr or B&W 804 D4 @roxy54 Whoops...B&W! | |
Which ones should I choose? Tannoy Kensington Gr or B&W 804 D4 Vanson1 +1 I'm getting close to 70 and I switched to B&O about 2 months ago. I can hear the higher frequencies that I've been missing for a few years. I wouldn't be surprised if better ears found my system to be a bit harsh, but it's just rig... | |
Suggest one obsure album we all should hear "Pure" by The Golden Palominos Obscure to me anyways. They released a dozen or more albums and were known for never having a consistant "sound". They were headed by a drummer and most members played a few months or years...being rotated out. ... | |
Magnepan .7 Alternatives I used Maggie SMGs, MMGs and the 1.7s over a 40 year period. I was one of those Magneplaner devotees. BTW, as several have said, they integrate beautifully with REL subs. I down-sized to a smaller home 2 years ago. My previous listening room was... | |
Where did you buy your first audio gear? @fertguy Where in KC did you buy your system? While in high school...1st system 1972 at an electronics store called "Henshaws", a place that sold stereo and CB radios, I got a Dual 1218 with a Shure cartridge, Technics receiver and Jensen 3 way s... | |
Is this a audioquest cable counterfeit fake? I am in Industrial printing, which includes packaging. The industry, like most others has been hit with supply line shortages. Packaging materials taken for granted for years/decades are suddenly unavailable for the forseeable future. Package pro... | |
Does dose anyone see these speakers in real? The thread title is indeed odd @Roxy54... and so is the article's title "Most expensive 5 million dollar speaker". I wonder what the least expensive 5 million dollar speaker looks like? | |
What are songs where people or instruments sound closer to you? @CuriousJim That’s where streaming comes in so handy...being able to sample an album before buying physical media. My copy of "Dad Loves His Work" is a MoFi Superdisk CD. Sadly, I’m not that wild about most of the tracks on it, except "Her Town t... | |
What are songs where people or instruments sound closer to you? Grover Washington Jr’s "Winelight" album: 1. Winelight 2. Let it Flow Both of those tracks have percussion and subtle acoustic guitar all over the place...great imaging. I have the original release and the Nautilus Super Disk versions on vinyl.... | |
B.S. Node 2i brick (yet another one) My BS Node 2i has been running continuously since December 2019. Haven't hit the alleged, infamous 3 year mark, but so far it's been great! | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? https://pin.it/2Xi4Yls Got a fairly rare, Japanese Steely Dan compilation from Discogs. Not bad, but I feel it was visually graded and not play-tested, as it’s very noisy. Making me think about more serious cleaning tools. |
