OK, Here's One For You, Industry Quantification...
Cocozhou and Pbb the point of my thread and ridicule of Pbb has to do with the foolishness of the measurement above all crowd. The piece you bought measured well but sounded lousy. The seller has complete responsibility to back up whatever claims ... 
OK, Here's One For You, Industry Quantification...
Yes our friend Pbb is the only one of us to realize how stupid all audiophiles are and that there really is no difference between and 70's vintage Panasonic reciever and a Wolcott, VPI, or Krell stereo system. Any claim made by a company or indivi... 
Review: Luminous Audio Axiom Preamplifier
Interesting review, not to mention, conclusion. Are these only sold factory direct? 
Purist Audio & Stereophile
Flex, having heard the Dominus for a period of time I can say without reservation that your statement could not be more wrong. When I auditioned Dominus the bass was as tight and fast as I have ever heard. There was no bloat or bloom to it. I have... 
rock and roll fantasy single
I would have Eric Clapton and Ritchie Blackmore on Guitar, Chris Squire on bass, Cozy Powell on drum, Ian Anderson on flute, Benmont Tench on keyboards, Bob Dylan on harmonica, Helen Terry on background vocals, with Midge Ure singing.They could do... 
Can we have an "Ask Sean" catagory?
Everyone knows that Sean is very knowledgable about equipment, but he is also a "stand up" guy, and helpful to people he doesn't even really know.I bought a phono stage from a guy who took the money, never sent the unit, and then finally after muc...

These "advertising" rants ring hollow!!! Sota TT's were not reviewed for years and had almost fallen off the globe as far as reviewers were concerned. Not because they didn't advertise, but because they were busy supplying gear for customers, not ... 
Krell ksa-300s vs Pass Labs x-350
I am a Krell owner, not a basher. I have had many pieces of Krell equipment including the two I own right now, but given the choice between those two amps I would not hesitate to get the Pass Labs.I have never had a problem with Krell customer sup... 
200 to 300 wpc amp revised question
How often will you be listening to your system at levels that will be using 200 wpc? In my experience there are very few times that an amp is forced to work hard.To say that the speaker has to have a 200wpc amp is plain stupid. Unless you are usin... 
Review: Cable shootout Nordost, Purist, Synergistic, MIT Speaker cable
I recently upgraded from Museaus speaker cables to Venustus. I ordered the new cables while I had a bi-wire speaker. Before the order was done I sold the first speaker and bought a speaker which was not set up to be bi-wired. I called the gentlema... 
What other obsessions do you have?
Slipknot1 my wife and I took the kids (along with our exchange student) to Taliesin last year. It was amazing, but the buildings are getting quite run-down. I used to live on Oak Park Il and would wander around looking at FLW's homes and studio. W... 
Fancy wall plugs?
Those people don't know what they are talking about. Rather than going with their suggestions I would buy some of the Porter Port from Albert Porter.I bought two of the PS Audio outlet before Albert got into the Port business. I think they work ve... 
Congratulations to Marco
Marco, no one said you were funny, the suggestion is just that you're not always serious! : ) 
Congratulations to Marco
Marco, I'm stunned! You actually do have some talents! All this time I thought you were a wallflower, or shrinking violet with nothing but time on your hands.Good for you 
Are Revel Salons too much?
I don't think, based on the room dimensions you listened that the speakers are too much. I have heard them sound unbelievable in a smaller room. I think you only need 24-26 feet for the bass to bloom properly which you excede.Based on how good I h...
