| Speakers to audition at AXPONA 2015 Hey Duke,I listened the rhythm prisms in a subcompact room here in Dallas a few years ago and am a fan of your posts and work. Looking forward to hearing your new speakers. I'm sure the Essential Audio room at Axpona will be a good place to hear t... | |
| Speakers to audition at AXPONA 2015 Cool, I'm putting Essential audio on my priority list. Best room last year, using a Sound Lab rig. | |

| Vandersteen 5a Carbons Pal, My thing is space-robbing panels (Sound Labs, Analysis Audio) have a lot strengths, a greatly reduced down side and come in to their own at that budget. | |
| Fess Up How much have you spent on this Hobby?? The issue with investing your money instead of spending it on audio is that audio equipment inflation very likely outstrips the return on investment! The responsible thing is buy more stuff. | |

| Are there other Artisan Fidelity TT owners aorund? To Steve's (Sjy425) 5/20 post:I talked to Chris Thornton and he dissuaded me from the quiet core as an upgrade for a two year old SP10mk2 I ordered. This was in the context of price/performance. He was more keen on the platter change. | |
| High End Audio Market Oppertunities Not sure what this is about. I'll say for fun that I am interested in hard drive music. I do not like fiddling with computers an do not want to use a lot of rack space. Something like a Sony HAP-Z1ES with a CD slot with auto ripping plus digital o... | |
| Crazy Cardas? If you understand the principal (not soundstage shape?) then you can answer your question. The dimensions can be manipulated using the ratio as Cardas has done. Sanders Sound has different approach; I hear so do others with using small asymmetry f... |
