| ultimate final word 2 on best speakers Honest1 are we now forced to interpret threads meaning? The question seems clear enough! And the phrase is la-DE-da, but not relevant! This is a serious question that requires a thoughtful and accurate answer. There are no speakers that sound life... | |
| hospital grade or commercial grade receptacles ? Irv, for someone who hides behind a curtain of science (pay no attention to the man behind the curtain) and has distain((???) do you mean disdain) for anyone who who uses the scientific means of proving something, you certainly are critical of sci... | |
| hospital grade or commercial grade receptacles ? The community has no problem with debate, but it tends not to like dogmatism. Irv you still haven't answered by 'sciencentific proof' questions. | |
| Must pull trigger-- quick arm help please The 250 has better things added onto the basic arm. The bearings on the 300 were originally better than the 250, but by the time OL did the mods you are coming out ahead. Besides, TWL said to go with the 250. | |
| Amplifiers:A Keeper for Life. Do you know of one ? The Krell FPB 700cx has never failed to amaze me, but the fact that it is for sale would preclude the possibility of it fitting in with the 'Yes' responses. Unfortunately I need to raise some cash, so discretionary items are the first to be elimin... | |
| What makes one good amp sound better than another? You are either a glutton for punishment or just got a new can opener, and wanted to see what kind of worms were in this can!In spite of the fact that basic amplifier design has not really changed that much in the last fifty or sixty years, the dif... | |

| Silly Question...does a transport have a "sound" ? There is not transistor, triode, tube, PC board or wire that is sonically neutral. Why would and piece of gear be neutral? It is impossible for anything not to leave a sonic signature! Even the best gear is sometimes discribed as have the least si... | |
| ultimate final word what we want out of our system Funny, none of the things you listed are actually 'sound' related. How about accurate timbre? | |
| ultimate final word 2 on best speakers I have never heard a 'life like sounding speaker' at any price level, much less $250 or $400! Speakers only reproduce what is sent to them, and are no more important but probably less important, than any other link in the audio chain. | |
| hospital grade or commercial grade receptacles ? Irv, at the risk of boring you senile, I will relate my own expereince. I stopped reading Stereophile, and more or less dropped off the Audiophile wagon when they started talking about Powercords improving the sound of a system. I bought into the ... | |
| hospital grade or commercial grade receptacles ? Boa2 was made the most helpful response to a lot of the sophomoric statements made so far. Irv, scientific theory is proven by expereince, not more theory. Just because you don't know how to measure something doesn't mean it is not true. Electrici... | |
| How do I keep my cats off my amplifier? A canvas sack, a bunch of rocks and a cool stream. : )I have two cats, and a dedicated listening room in my basement. The two are mutually exclusive. | |
| Room size-how do I determine speaker size? I would have to agree with the monitor suggestion. The general rule of thumb is small room-small speaker...The good news is small speakers are generally cheaper than larger models. Just don't rush into anything. | |
