Raidho D1 audition
Razmika, when one goes to a well organized demonstration into a shop that is stuffed with a lot of expensive electronics (beside the ones demonstrated) and also finds a very friendly and accommodating dealer, one does not ask the dealer whether or... 
Any bad experience with wilson audio sasha w/p?
Ricred1, my post was meant to be ironic. It was a response to B01972's post on 04-02-13. 
Any bad experience with wilson audio sasha w/p?
Mpit, it looks like eventually everybody here has figured out what Bo1972 knew for some time now, i.e. Wilson speakers are very bad speakers. :) Though, I find it hard to believe that a dealer, i.e. Bo1972, would not want Wilson speaker in his roo... 
Raidho D1 audition
Hi guys, I'm sorry for the very late reply.First I would like to mentioned that I though a bit about the posts of Maxgalla and Windmolen above, and I find them rather dubious. They seems to have subscribed on Audiogon only to point out that A10 Au... 
Int amp and Dynaudios
Srz888, in my experience Musical Fidelity pairs very well with Dynaudio speakers. However, as you can imagine, there are many more brands that pair very well with Dynaudio, e.g. Plinus, Pass Labs, Accuphase, Octave and Sim Audio (in no particular ... 
Differences between Accuphase C-2820 and C-3800?
Hey Classact, any news so far? Did you listen and/or compared these pre-amps? 
Raidho D1 audition
Kiwi_1282001, the dealer told me he has set up Q1 speakers (how often or how many I do not know). I do not know how many hours the D1s have been played before the show. I believe the pair belonged to the dutch distributor. Regarding the room, the ... 
Diamond drivers
Hi Mordante , where did you listen the Raidho D1 speakers? I too have spent 2-3 hours with them last friday (in Amsterdam at A10 audio).Bo1972 make two very good points: 1) How the tweeter is made is very important (probably as important as the ma... 
Differences between Accuphase C-2820 and C-3800?
Hi Classact, it looks like the upgrade and Accuphase bugs have bitten you well, viz. less than a year ago you were contemplating whether to buy an Accuphase or a Musical Fidelity integrated, and now you are thinking to go after the Accuphase top o... 
Focal Scala or Diablos with subs?
Bo1972, the Lyngdorf room correction system can indeed suck the life and emotion out of a system. However, IMO that happens only when the unit is misused, e.g. one has a lively room and runs the room correction procedure too many times in order to... 
Room Acoustics and Speaker interaction.
It just didn't sound right. It lost its naturalness, it's intimacy, and to my ears, I didn't like it.I know what you mean No_regrets. You should try to use something softer, also do not stuff the speaker ports. The speakers need to "breathe" a lit... 
Focal Scala or Diablos with subs?
Tubesrule, Scala seems to be very flexible. Not only it allows one to adjust the level of the bass and treble, but one can also adjust the position of the tweeter and midrange drivers to time align them at the listening position. IMO these are ver... 
Room Acoustics and Speaker interaction.
No-regrets, if the wife is ok with he Tannoys then I would try them again only this time stuck something into their ports, e.g. some foam or sponge, rolled socks will also do. Keep in mind that the density of the thing you put into the ports will ... 
Review: Focal Micro Be vs. Dynaudio C1 mk1 Monitor
Hi Michael, all I can say is that I am glad it is not me in your situation. In the following I will assume that the dimensions of you room are 11 x 12 feet (you have written in the "Focal Utopia Micro BE setup help"). IMO there are two important f... 
Musical Fidelity?
As other have stated already MF makes quite good amplifiers. I have own an A5 combo (CD player and integrated) for around 3 years and the amp was certainly a good amp. I would certainly recommend it. The nu-vista m3 integrated is much better than ...
