| Clearwave Duet 6 Monitors My room is about 15' X 10' and I have them along the long wall with the speakers about 18" out (measured from the the front of the speaker) and about 10' apart and I sit about 7' back with my head against the rear wall. To some it may sound odd bu... | |
| Retired audiophile? I'm just a couple of years from doing what I like: nothing in particular.Having gotten that out of the way, there have been a couple of times when I thought I'd gotten as far as I could go with my system only to find out it was just this one item.... | |
| Clearwave Duet 6 Monitors Thanks Toddnkaya,I'm enjoying them every day rediscovering my music. It's not the old "I'm hearing things I haven't heard before" stuff but hearing it a different way. The notes are fuller and more expressive lending a dramatic shift in perspectiv... | |
| Ching Cheng Power Cords I believe practically all manufacturers of high end gear, including Nelson Pass, put a basic power cord that meets all minimum safety requirements. It doesn't mean it's good enough.That, and you needn't spend $3K on a PC to improve the sound. Base... | |
| Ching Cheng Power Cords I prefer the Mai Tai power cords as they make everything sound better. | |
| Pangea Power Cables comments My Cullen PC is every bit as good if not better than my Zu Misssion PC. And cheaper too. | |
| Audiophile Fakery Car noise being pumped back into the cabin is one of the dumbest things I've heard of. BMW even has a dial to let you enhance the sound as you like. If a properly designed car runs quietly, so be it. I think the trouble with this theme is that peo... | |
| In defense of ABX testing Jea48, I think if they did it the way you recommend, then we'd have nothing to argue about. :-) | |
| Upgrade from Proac Response 1SC? I like my Clearwave Duet 6 monitors. They pack a lot of sound for their size.All the best,Nonoise | |
| some of the best speaker cables under $250 I'll second the Clear Day SCs. I loved the Tempo Electric SCs with my Tonians but the Clear Day SCs work a lot better with my new Clearwave Duets. I think it's due to being of a smaller gauge but for whatever reason they are a high value item.I'm ... | |
| New Bookshelf speakers u love 3k to 6k B_limo, yes it's both the mid woofer and tweeter. Jed's done such a great job at integration that I have to say, again, I still can't detect the crossover. I don't know which model of mid woofer but on his site he states that it's the latest with ... | |
| New Bookshelf speakers u love 3k to 6k Danoroo, I recently read some favorable reviews on ceramic drivers, specifically Accuton, that got me thinking.Sarjan Eban's of 6moons.com on the Albedo Apticas.Scott Hall's from the Parttimeaudiophile on the predecessor to the Duets, the Symphoni... | |
| Best isolation cones MItch2, yes, I have both the small and large Tenderfeet and it was the larger and more solid one that I tried and I wasn't prepared for the lessening of the sound. It never happened before and all I can think of is that the Marantz units that I ha... | |
| In defense of ABX testing All things considered, preferences play a major but under appreciated role. We can all agree on specs but in the final analysis we'll pick what we like.All the best,Nonoise | |
| Best isolation cones Scratch that (no pun intended) as I just saw an image of the BC cones and see how they wouldn't mar any surface. |
