| Do Audiophile Cables Matter? Here's PROOF! @glupson, sorry about the link. It was to Transparent's $65,000 speaker cables.@speedbump6, so you're saying that people who are into cables believe that $65,000 cables will make a significant difference over $10,000 cables and that the _ONLY_ rea... | |
| Amp Pairing for Aerial Acoustics 6Ts. I inherited them. Have Aerial Acoustics 7Bs in my primary system with a Madrigal Proceed (Levinson) amp at 250wpc. The 6Ts may be a little more precise than the 7Bs but do not sound as big as the 7Bs which is why the 6Ts are not in my primary syst... | |
| Amp Pairing for Aerial Acoustics 6Ts. So the Sonos Amp is a class D with 125w into 8 ohms. I do not see a spec for 4 ohms which my speakers are.The Sprout100 is 50w into 8 ohms, 100w into 4 ohms.@kalali, now that you have suggested that the 6Ts will sound thin with these amps it is al... | |

| Amp Pairing for Aerial Acoustics 6Ts. Thanks guys. The Gato is intriguing and would be pleasing visually too which would be important to my wife. Most of the units mentioned are well out of my price range but I will watch for them on the used market. | |
| Do Audiophile Cables Matter? Here's PROOF! The funny thing about cables is that even those who believe that they are critical to SQ have a threshold at which belief is suspended.For some people, they are called naysayers apparently, the idea of $3000 speaker cables seems ridiculous.Folks w... | |
| What are you streaming tonight? @16f4, I was a little disappointed with Down the Road Wherever. I’d say that Tracker is my favorite. I also like Get Lucky, the first CD of Privateering and I’m warming up to Kill to Get Crimson.All of his stuff is very well produced and engineered. | |
| What are you streaming tonight? Black Pumas - Black Pumas. Good so far. Psychedelic soul. | |
| Do Audiophile Cables Matter? Here's PROOF! Are you still a naysayer if you've done your own tests but still don't hear a significant difference? Or are you just automatically considered deaf and tasteless?I've tried Shunyata power cables, a $900 Shunyata power conditioner bar with the $250... | |
| Is imaging reality? @mrdecibel : "The genius of the artist ( s ). That is it, in a nutshell ! "Agree completely. But good engineers and producers are also artists with their own levels of genius.........and lack thereof. | |
| Is imaging reality? And remember, plenty of rock and pop recordings are made without the musicians being in the studio at the same time and some musicians play all of the instruments on a given recording. Aldo Nova comes to mind.In these situations there was never an... | |
| What are you streaming tonight? @16f4, I've only been a member for a few years. I'm in and out of the forums. Not a big vinyl guy but did spend some time in the "what's on your turntable" threads in the past. | |
| What are you streaming tonight? Right now: The Meters - The Meters. Good stuff.@16f4, if you like accordion check out some of Mark Knopfler's later work. Several tracks on his album Tracker feature accordion rather heavily. Really well produced stuff to. | |
| Is imaging reality? I would say I have also come to appreciate recorded music that is produced with an intention of how the end user will hear it. Obviously no engineer or producer knows exactly what equipment the end user will have or his listening environment. But ... | |
| Is imaging reality? When I go to symphonic concerts I prefer halfway back somewhere in the middle-ish. Have sat down front many times and find I like the sound and the view less.Opera is a little harder to say since in many places the orchestra is in a pit or down ve... |
