Does anyone know how to do a search for a component review on 6moons.com? Best bet is to google search the component + sixmoons. Better yet, duck duck go. | |
Dunlavy SC IV Speaker- Any Good??? There are a pair of Dunlavy Audio SC VI for sale at Skyfiaudio in Ridgewood NJ. As per usual, they are asking 80% of retail for a pair of speakers that are 20+ yrs old. I guess it's a good thing they aren't asking more than they cost new. We've... | |
Von schweikert out of business since Albert's passing? Another former owner here. I bought the VR4 Silvers after hearing them at Hi-Fi 96 in Manhattan and meeting Albert himself. Very nice guy and I enjoyed meeting him and hearing the speakers at the show. I placed an order for the VR4s and my pair sh... | |
K-horn won't fit, any other corner speakers recommended for a big room? I agree with @mrdecibel Tight in corners is no good for any heritage speaker except a khorn. Even the cornwalls can benefit from being a ft or so away from walls. My LaScalas are a couple of feet away from the corners (where the subs reside) and... | |
SPL Audio The Phonos preamp has been on radar for some time. It looks like a really good product. Any feedback on that one would be great. | |
Your single most significant purchase mistake? VAC PA 100/100. Sounded horrible. Took it over to a friend's house. Horrible there too. One week from opening the box to packing the box. Sonic Frontiers Power 2. Very sterile sounding with a midbass bump that was very annoying. Kept this one for... | |
Florida Audio Expo 2022 @glory LOL, +1 | |
Lumin D2 or U1 Mini I went directly from the Node 2i to the U-1 mini. See my comments above in this thread. Oz | |
Spatial M3 Sapphire or Klipsch Forte 4 While it doesn't go much deeper on paper, the LS II "appears" to have more bass than earlier versions. On about 80% of what I listen to, they are fine on their own. That said, I do have a pair of HSU ULS-15 II subs to augment them. My room is dedi... | |
Spatial M3 Sapphire or Klipsch Forte 4 @arafiq I had the CW IV for about a year and moved on to the LaScala II. But I stand by what I've said about this latest version of the Cornwalls. Really a great speaker and much improved over earlier versions. Highly recommended. | |
Denefrips Pontus "burn in" period? The Node, while a good bargain for what it is, can certainly be bettered as a streamer. There's no doubt in my mind that the Pontus II is better than the internal DAC in the Node, but moving up the chain with a better streamer would get you better... | |
Audiogon is becoming the hub for scammers. As has been said before, it's up to the buyer to do the due diligence. The OP has been here since 2009, I would hope he's privy to the "ins and outs" of this game by now. It does appear that he is MIA from this thread though. | |
Spatial M3 Sapphire or Klipsch Forte 4 Not quite the same comparison. But I went from a Spatial Audio X3 to a Cornwall IV and was much happier. The Spatial speakers efficiency rating can be a little optimistic. | |
Denefrips Pontus "burn in" period? @jasonbourne52 has spoken. / thread.... | |
Tube Amp settings: Triode vs UL; 8 ohm vs. 4 ohm ? With the Fortes you will more than likely prefer the 8 ohm tap. Almost without fail, every switchable amp I have owned has sounded better in the UL or Pentode mode. Most manufacturers voice their amps in UL and add the triode setting as a marketi... |
