| B & W speaker upgrade suggestions My search is over, though my wait is not! Terry will also be making a mini-Abby speaker (29" tall) "in the near future" so I will be buying these and his new center as soon as they are in production - and as soon as I have the $$ togehter, of cour... | |
| Matching center/rear speakers for Cain & Cain Abby Thanks, Gmood1 - must be why I couldn't find the Axe series!I emailed Terry yesterday about my dilemma. He said he was going to be making a center speaker soon; I will make do with what I have until he has them available. That speaker will be a pe... | |
| B & W speaker upgrade suggestions A lucky find for you, Jkalman! A great price for what is said to be a very good speaker.I, too, have read that it is best to get the same speakers/series all away around for the best HT sound. Though having the Abbys as rear speakers is certainly ... | |
| Matching center/rear speakers for Cain & Cain Abby Gmood1 - Do you mean their Act series center? I can't find anything about an AXE series. :-(Holly | |
| B & W speaker upgrade suggestions I bet it will be worth the wait, Jkalman! At least you have decided on what to save up for. Now that I have decided which main speakers I want, I have to figure out what speakers, if any, will match the Abbys for my center and rears. I really thin... | |
| Matching center/rear speakers for Cain & Cain Abby I already have a sub - the Rocket UFW-10. Very muscial and pretty to look at, too. :-) I wish I could have a separate systems, one for music and one for HT, but I can't, so I have to compromise a bit. I am sold on the Abbys; I wish Terry Cain made... | |
| Matching center/rear speakers for Cain & Cain Abby I guess I'll need to get the Abbys and see how they do with the set up I currently have. The Omegas certainly look as if they are contenders. Any other options?Holly | |
| Preamp/Amp synergy with Cain Abby's? I am going to be purchasing the Abby speakers and am also interested in what amp is best with them. I currently have all solid state equipment (Rotel) except for my headphone amps (Singlepower.) I am betting that tube amps would be better with the... | |
| B & W speaker upgrade suggestions The Cain & Cain Abbys look splendid in person! I am getting the natural finish ones. These speakers are made out of real wood, not veneer and plywood. They sound incredible, IMHO, and at an amazingly low price. I was planning to spend $5000 on... | |
| B & W speaker upgrade suggestions I went to Golden today to hear the Cain & Cain speakers. I was absolutely stunned by the sound and appearance of the Abby's, though I originally went there to audition the IM Ben model. I loved the transparency and accuracy of the Abby speaker... | |
| B & W speaker upgrade suggestions Fair enough, Jkalman! I will be going to listen to some Cain & Cain speakers today. If I decide to try out the Onix Reference 3 speakers, they have a 30 day trial period. I can set them up in my house and hear how they sound with my equipment ... | |
| Any women looking at this add Please reply I have always loved music, and I guess I got into the technical/equipment side of things because I also enjoy computers, building my own, etc.. Though the most important thing is the sound, I do enjoy researching different audio equipment, too. I ... | |
| Wife Acceptance Factor I read threads like this and realize how many straight men really dislike women, and vice versa. I agree with some of the other posters - some people have definitely made a regretable mistake in choosing their life partners. :-(Holly | |
| B & W speaker upgrade suggestions Hi Jkalman - I shouldn't have called AV123 the manufacturer - sorry, that was a bit misleading! They are indeed actually made in China, but Mark Schifter, the owner of AV123, is deeply involved in the design and marketing of the products - here is... | |
| B & W speaker upgrade suggestions AV123, the Onix/Rocket manufacturer, is about 10 minutes away from where I live, so getting repair/replacement speakers would not be a problem. Also, I am interested in their Onix Reference line, not their Rocket line.I personally don't trust that... |
