No matter how you mow them down there's always more of the same not far behind. I can't decide which levels of Dante's hell are reflected here (I'm torn between the 6th and 8t... | |
| New Luxman DA-06 doesnt sound so great. Will it get better? Check out the threads on step down transformers as there is a plethora of info on them. One member in particular, renjy651, has a lot of experience with them regarding model types, switch outs, and the like.All the best,Nonoise | |
| Now Keith Emerson is gone... I loved the guy. He and ELP got me into music on a level I hadn't experienced before. Heck, I liked ELP long before I got into the Beatles. Keith Emerson led me to (then) Walter Carlos which led me to love classical. I never got enough of them. S... | |

| Moto_Man's Scam Of The Week I mentioned this before on another thread about the very same thing: the brass resonators. It was a couple of audio shows ago down in Newport and there was a big room with rows of chairs fronted by a system and the room had lots of the smaller bra... | |

| My New Review of the Spatial Hologram M4 Open Baffle Speaker Wonderful review rebbi. I entertained the notion of getting a pair of Spatials about a year ago. Owning a pair of semi-open baffle Tonian Labs TL-D1s makes it easy to relate to what you hear with your Spatials. There's definitely something going o... | |
| Why do all audio forums on the internet seem "dead" ? Yes, traffic is slow.As a matter of fact, I am pretty much set with my present system after getting a pair of Zu Event series I speaker cables. They really make me wonder if anything aside from PC audio would be a real step up.I'm only a month and... | |

| Your jaw dropping cables Zu Audio Event series I speaker cables. My jaw didn't drop but I was taken aback. These cables startle me on some recordings. I find myself looking around for someone or something in the room with me and there's no one there.All the best,Nonoise | |
