| Speaker Stand Height - Effect on Presentation I am sure the quality of the tweeter and other speaker factors come in, but raising a speaker up and down changes the tonal balance. If the tweeters are on too high or low of a plain relative to your ears, the highs will be attenuated. Four inches... | |
| need help - Cd players Better suggestions can be given if you would post what is in your current system and any sonic errors it commits. All I can add is that the Rotel is better built than the AMC and NAD & is more reliable than the NAD. | |
| New Grill Cloth Here is a source:http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showprod.cfm?&DID=7&CATID=48&ObjectGroup_ID=140Best? I dunno. | |
| Paradigm Mini Monitors vs. B&W ? I don't think there is much comparison. B&W is more open & less distorted. Relative to the 600s (and others) the minis lump all the sounds together and reluctantly spew them out. It may be a bit more subtle than that, but it's true. Beside... | |
| Am I the only one who thinks B&W is mid-fi? Is the consensous among the 'mid-fi' camp that the Nautilus line sounds worse than the Matrix, that other manufacturers that are now making better speakers, or that B&W was never particularly good? | |
| Can I start some trouble? Compared to less costly cables? In most legitimate situations, no. Quality comes at a premium. There are certainly instances, however, where a more costly cable is less probable of being 'better' (as in better i am refering to 'more of nothing'.) ... | |
| MC cartridge that best mates with RB300 arm.... If you go DV-20x, get the high output. Getting the LO is pointless with the P3/300, and a bit risky, sonically. Personally i'd get the 10x4, and possibly put the rest towards a Heavyweight or save it to partially pay for a TT or wire upgrade. Good... | |
| Am I the only one who thinks B&W is mid-fi? I am intersted in knowing what Mikez finds better than B&W at the vaious price points. I have owned the speakers in the lower B&W ranges. I bought them after comparing them to true mid-fis like Paradigm and Klipsch. I can see why someone m... | |
| Newbie Pre-Amp choices ? Another question is, what other components make up your system?PS- I see this as another expensive hobby ;)That's for damn sure. A stereo is like mugger. Welcome to the 'gon. | |
| Best Audio AND Video stores in Dallas/FW? Audio Concepts at Preston and Forest and audioconceptsonline.com They are relatively new to HT ( a couple years or so), so they still lean towards stereo.I have found this store to be the best in Dallas.If you go to Stereo East, you will see Hillc... | |
| BEST Speakers for the BANG around 2K "Ljgj remember its not about the money BUT about research"What 'it' is mostly about is first-hand knowledge, a far more powerful, precise and reliable tool than words on the internet. I do not care for claims without reference(on a few levels in t... | |
| Audio stores in my area... Have you tried the yellow pages? Just about all of my dealers are listed under 'stereo'. | |
| Mcintosh - Love Em' or Hate Em' ......Why? Their car amps are very good. Actually that is what popped in my head when I read the title to this thread. I was not haapy when my CA dealer stopped carrying Mac. Cited the reason as Mac not being hip or cheap enough for the kiddies. I am not as ... | |
| Hobby or Lifestyle? Music is more of a lifestyle and audio is more of a hobby. Music is the end of a means that is audio. And all the aspects of audio (e.g. buying, discussing, assembling system) are intrinsically enjoyable. There couldn't be a better hobby. | |
| Can you help or do I have to get divorced? B&W LM-1 (Leisure Monitor) can screw right in to a wall. |
