| the smoothest sounding speaker If you are using the components described in your system, don't blame the speakers. You need to look elsewhere if you are experiencing listener fatigue, mainly your source and amplification.Oz | |
| Magico mini 2 versus Magico mini 1 Tarsando was having fun with you guys. Tongue in cheek, get it?Oz | |
| Members with No Feedback I have only had one transaction with a newbie with zero feedback, and this was for a relatively expensive pair of speakers that I sold to him. But I only got that warm fuzzy after a good long phone conversation. He turned out to be a very nice guy... | |
| Brass door knobs as footers Those parts express footers are absolutely worthless if the adjustability factor is important to you. The only way they will sound decent is if you loctite the tip to the body of the cone. If it ever backs off at all, the sound deteriorates notice... | |
| Unhappy with tubes so which transistor amp? If your Aragon amplifiers sound better than the ARC, the latter is broken. As for the digital glare "creeping back into the system", you should probably look elsewhere for the culprit.I can understand that tubes might not be your cup of tea for pr... | |
| $40.000 speaker advise. Check out my list >Why is the Montana KAS not on your list ?<Peter, good question. I haven't heard the KAS, but am a big fan of your work, currently owning the EPS2. If I were in the market for a super speaker, these would surely be the absolute first ones I ... | |
| Poll - Active vs. Passive preamp I am firmly on the fence on this one. I am a former TVC owner and have sung it's praises here. And in the right system (especially with the right amp) it is indeed hard to beat. But after upgrading to a CJ Premier 140 I realized that it was not "p... | |
| Vandersteen Quatro >Of course not any full range speaker will optimise's and sound best out from the wall to preference<Translation, please?Oz | |
| Vandersteen Quatro They might be more user friendly and tunable for different rooms. But to think they will perform optimally in a small room is just wishful thinking. And you might have gotten them to sound fairly good 4 inches from the wall, but I would hardly cal... | |
| Vandersteen Quatro If a 12" wide speaker is too much for your room, I don't see how you are going to make full range speakers like Quatros or Mozart Grands work. You must have a pretty small listening room.Oz | |
| Best Speakers to Audition in the $5-10k range? Do you think that maybe.....just maybe, he might have bought some speakers after two years?!?!?!Oz | |
| Anyone using Coincident Total or Super Eclipse Super Eclipse IIIs are highly overrated IMHO. In my system, they sounded like a competent 2K speaker. You can do much better for the money.Oz | |
| Mobile Fidelity OML-1 - Any thoughts/opinions? >Bill please let the readers know what your lengthy professional experience is ? How long have you been selling and setting up audio systems?<Maybe he would rather let the customers come to him?Ahhh, a novel idea.Oz | |
| Monitor Audio Made in China? Hifimaniac,Do you really think that if AR, Wilson, and Krell manufactured in China that YOU would see any of the cost savings? HAHAHA.....Albert VS already does it, and look at his pricing scheme.Oz | |
| Monitor Audio Made in China? >Damn greedy unions, expecting paid vacations, bathroom breaks, health insurance etc etc<I get all that and don't belong to a union. It is true that for the most part, unions just perpetuate a lazy workforce who think they are entitled. Unio... |
