| Anyone Using Crystals? It's all good folks, nobody understands difficult like I do, and if you think audiophiles have disagreements, try scientists when a controversial paper is presented. I really really enjoy such discourse.In addition, as I noted I am in no way an ex... | |
| Tenting home for termites This thread has a decidedly disturbing tilt! Have a Florida home which was tented, and no ill equipment effects I could ascertain. | |
| Anyone Using Crystals? BTW! Geoffkai, I missed your double blinded and most scientific studies snarky response. Are you anti science or just be difficult. Hard to be an audiophile and anti science at the same time. The former is entirely contingent on the latter in our ... | |
| Anyone Using Crystals? Geoffkait, your responses are why, as I first noted, I really did not want to comment in this fascinating thread. To a degree you are correct, however, the straw man argument is really not that but rather revealing my intrinsic scientific skeptici... | |
| The eternal quandary size versus sensitivity versus quality!! Help wanted!! The minuet Grand or the Minuet Supreme plus( or even sr17), which would you recommend after hearing? Has anyone heard the Silverlines and the small Salks, and if so, which do you prefer? I like the ribbons on the Salks, but both the Silverlines an... | |
| Anyone Using Crystals? Lai, 100% agree. I really really do.Many are the physicians who have prescribed sugar pills to great patient benefit. If it works for you obviously keep it! But...But beware of situations in audio somewhat analogous to Münchhausen's Syndrome, in t... | |
| The eternal quandary size versus sensitivity versus quality!! Help wanted!! A smaller equivalent that I have considered is on audiogon now, the Zu Cube..... https://www.audiogon.com/listings/monitors-zu-audio-cube-2017-06-10-speakers-84054-north-salt-lake-u... . Pretty fair starting price, unsure what the wood is and I a... | |
| The eternal quandary size versus sensitivity versus quality!! Help wanted!! Btw as to music again, m test of components is usually Joni Mitchell, "A Case of You", but I do love a heavy horn loaded orchestral piece. Would those be muddied by Omegas? I can only guess how good "A case.." would sound!! | |
| The eternal quandary size versus sensitivity versus quality!! Help wanted!! I mean the s1 or s2...I have always loved ribbons... | |

| Anyone Using Crystals? I just could not find any constructive way to make any comments in this thread without controversy or creating animosity, even though it has fascinated me to no end!!However, as to Randy's audiophile assertion requirements...I double majored under... | |
| The eternal quandary size versus sensitivity versus quality!! Help wanted!! Stfoth, mostly everything but metal, i.e. Classic rock , folk, classical, classic jazz, a smattering of opera occasionally, but probably mostly the first four. | |
| The eternal quandary size versus sensitivity versus quality!! Help wanted!! I was all set to order the Omega super 3 ho's tomorrow, but now I guess ATCs need consideration.SF, agree with you completely regarding the LS 50s-- I just don't like their sound that much. The PIII ESR's I do like, but fear they were going to req... | |
| The eternal quandary size versus sensitivity versus quality!! Help wanted!! Great summary Blindjim and, despite the hassle in getting in several sets, I concur. If I do not like them the kids certainly would value them as a present, birthdays, holidays whatever!!For many of the manufacturers it is sometimes difficult to o... | |
| Who is the WORST Audio Shop? I love Northern Minn, just like Wis, but southern is like Kansas, flat.And the twin cities, i admit are better than big city Wis-think Milwaukee, especially for things like audio. Madison, while much smaller, has the U, like the twins and much bet... |
