| Any one want a laugh???? I think the consumer report's report of Bose is political. The two share some history. As for sustaining 120db, there are plenty of auto systems that can do it. | |
| CLASSE - Great amps or highly flawed? It seems like those critics use Krell or some other bleach white(not colored) amp as a frame of reference. All I can really say, however, is that with my speakers (Hales), Classe is magic. The first time i heard the Hales/CA-300(store auditon) was... | |
| Rega and VPI tonearm owners - READ THIS Some folks at audioasylum have delved deeply in to discussions about the Heavyweight and/versus OL mods. A trusted fellow 'phile of mine had a similar experience to Sdcampbell when he got the Heavyweight for his nephew's Rega 25. He thought it was... | |
| best interconnects sub 100 Music Metre is sold/auctioned on this site for around your price. I replaced my PBJs and Tributaries Silvers with the M.M. Silvers and was stunned by the difference. | |
| Single disc player vs.multiple Why not keep your sherwood and buy a nice single disc player? You could use the sherwood for parties, or whatever. | |
| Speaker vs. Room Size Look at Merlin TSMs too. Used, they often go for a little less than the popular 805s. I agree, though, that you can not go wrong with the 805s. I find them to be easy on the ears at closer distances. | |
| Whole Hog Room Treatment Thank you | |
| Musical or scientific/technical background? Absrtact7, that sounds like an interesting career. I myself was fortunate to be able to take 'physics of sound & music', 'songwriting'(very difficult course), and some musical appreciation class at college. The funny thing about physics is tha... | |
| Here's How I Make My Equipment Racks Whoa, cool. Thank you, Mr. Lyon. Very nice of you to take the time to post such detailed messages. I'll think twice before tangling with you again :) | |
| Integrateds-Krell or Plinius? I have heard the Krell 300i with B&W N805s. I do like the dryness of B&Ws, but the Krell I think, is too lean sounding to compliment them. Its a sound that'll scrape your paint and make your teeth whiter. Maybe an audition would work for y... | |
| Why do people think I'm nuts involving audio? I keep my audio quiet. Most of family does not even know of its existence. It is visually stunning compared to Best Buy gear, so it has dropped the jaws of friends and cablemen. There's always the 'What's that?', and I hate explaining what phono s... | |
| Here's How I Make My Equipment Racks I have read and appreciate Mr. Lyon's informative posts on audioasylum. I know Neuance too, first and second hand. Those words I posted were more of a humorous needle than any sort of warning. I apologize, Mr. Lyon as that humor did not come acros... | |
| Here's How I Make My Equipment Racks The Flexy is good. I had to build one because i did not have enough money to get beyond the Salamander, Plateau, Quadraspire, etc. brands, which are no better. And you have to put your equipment on something. One hundred out of a $700 could be con... | |
| Levinson Amps: What do they really sound like? I listened to a pair of tall Levinson monoblocks once. They were ok, but too gray and boring for the money. I prefered Classe's Omega which was scary-good in comparison. Classe, however, comes with as many critics as Levinson, so go figure. | |
| Stated as I had something like that when I was a kid. Soundesign, I think. Now I feel like such a fool, selling it for only $20. It did not have an 8-track, though. Maybe that's the $180 difference. |
