| Is Audio Bluebook dead? I subscribed for a few days and cancelled. One problem was that models are missing. I also did not really understand what the price information was representing. Another problem is that the prices of models I have been following prior to my subscr... | |
| Replacing KEF LS50s with Reference 1s I have not owned either, but have heard them in an A/B. The two-way design eliminates the bass congestion of the LS50, so the gain is better bandwidth, more detail and more open sound. My opinion is the improvement is large. I do not think selling... | |
| Concurrent use of balanced and unbalanced outputs: Lamm L1 Again, thank you very much, Al. The YG powered sub has a 10kohm input impedance, so going to avoid it. | |
| Concurrent use of balanced and unbalanced outputs: Lamm L1 Thank you both for your helpful responses. I really appreciate your time and effort. Al, your post allowed to me find answers without chasing my tail so much, and it may prevent me from damaging my preamp. This topic is of little to no interest on... | |
| Wilson Sasha 2 or Alexia for small room 10' x 17'? Ohlala, the Sashas and Sabrinas were heard in the same room which was to my eye about 22' x 24'.I did not have the opportunity to hear the Evette. Both dealers near me did not have them to demo. I did however prefer the separate box design for twe... | |
| Wilson Sasha 2 or Alexia for small room 10' x 17'? 996cupracer, can I ask in approximately what size room did you audition the Sabrinas? Same room as Sasha? In defense of audiotroy, he is dealer; he is not some low-life shill. If only shills were criticized so pointedly. | |

| They Almost Never Quote A Price , Why? It is annoying, but worth certainly worth inquiring. What can be offered between wholesale and MSRP varies a lot. | |
| Stand mount speakers for a very large room !! JBL, in particular the 4312. They have good power handling and adjustable MF and HF that should help for a large room where there is going to be HF loss. | |
| If I block the speaker, will it damage the drivers? Blocking or "plugging" ports will not damage drivers. I say, "good for you" ; ports can be pretty bad. | |
| Think twice before concluding some thing sounds better People chose their tvs wrong as lcd pushed out plasma. Shows you can't trust any sense 😄 Thanks for the lead, shadorne. | |
| Wilson Audio Haters I echo others' sentiments that if Wilson was not very successful, no one would hate them. Some people seem use Wilson as comparison to sound smarter as they "graduate" past the brand, which is social marketing issue not related to the product. The... | |
| HAPPY FESTIVUS Thanks! Almost forgot the holiday you can laugh at and with. Jerry Stiller was great. "Stop crying and fight your father." | |
| Any News on MQA Lately? There is some recent MQA discussion on audio asylum. They did do an hi-rez/MQA demo of the same song at RMAF with an emphasis on reducing temporal distortion. The result of the demo was, of course, forgone, and the difference was quite large. | |
