| Legacy 20/20 and Tubes I'm not trying to start trouble or severely piss anyone off here, but I'd like to add something that I didn't include in my post from 1/14/05.I had the Focus 20/20's for two weeks while my dealer was out of town at a show. I found them so offensiv... | |
| Aesthetix Calypso vs ARC LS25 MK2 Hello all, My apologies for not updating sooner, but the reason I have not updated to this point is because the unit had an unacceptable amount of tube noise with the stock Tesla 12ax7's when I received it, one channel being louder than the other ... | |
| Review: Von Schweikert Audio VR-4.5 Speaker Love my VR4 GenIII HSE's! Albert's the man! | |
| Aesthetix Calypso vs ARC LS25 MK2 I truely appreciate the folks (not folk's) who have taken the time to articulate their impressions and opinions regarding this thread. Trying either a Calypso or LS25 MK2 in my system is not really an option for me. So after extensive research I h... | |
| Aesthetix Calypso vs ARC LS25 MK2 Jafox wrote-A return back to the Calypso and that awesome openness is significantly diminshed. This is one area where I would have trouble going for the Calypso.I can't say I blame you, going from a Callisto to a Calypso would be taking a step bac... | |
| Aesthetix Calypso vs ARC LS25 MK2 Guidocorona & Magnepanmike,Thanks for keepin' it real, and civil. Both of your detailed descriptions are most insightful, helpful and appreciated.Comments from others still welcome... | |
| Aesthetix Calypso vs ARC LS25 MK2 Thanks for all the kind words from all you folks (not folk's). At least I've got the balls to list my system for all to see and not keep it under wraps like some military secret. I find it difficult to take serious advice from people who won't lis... | |
| Aesthetix Calypso vs ARC LS25 MK2 Well it looks like another thread run amuck with ARC bashers, what is with you people? I'm on my second ARC pre, the first was the SP16L, and my current is the LS25 MK1 (XLR to amps=critical). These pre's are anything but dull, boring, slow, thick... | |
| Aesthetix Calypso vs ARC LS25 MK2 Audioperv, I don't get it. Please explain further... | |
| speaker synergy and halo jc-1's Well, first off, be prepared for a 1500 hour break-in on the JC1's, this is fact not fiction. I think the SR's may be a little too much speaker for that room. My listening area is 17'x17'x10', but the actual room is 40' long. I couldn't imagine my... | |
| speaker synergy and halo jc-1's I'm using VSA VR4's w/JC1's to great affect, but they need some breathing room. I've not heard the VR4 jr's, but have heard very good things about them and VSA is a great company to deal with. JC1's will easily put a vice-grip like hold on those j... | |
| Parasound Halo JC-1 -VS- Bryston 7B-ST? I just want to concur with Essentialaudio that at 500 hours the JC1-1's are quite boring. I had been "piece mealing" the break-in time and keeping track of the hours. I knew about the long break-in time, but was becoming impatient. So I wrote to C... | |
| Parasound Halo JC-1 -VS- Bryston 7B-ST? Don't even tell me your getting bored with the JC1's??? | |
| Opinions: Neuance Shelf for Linn Sondek Lp12 TT Drubin, I am aware of the different level's of shelves. I am going with an "A" platform which is 1 5/8" thick, supports up to 30lbs. and is sized to my specs to fit my cdp. This is a platform, not a shelf, similar to a slab of b.b. which will then... | |
| Opinions: Neuance Shelf for Linn Sondek Lp12 TT I'm doing the same thing, putting one under my cdp as a beta test. If it's good to go I'll probably put one under my preamp. If it doesn't work for me, up for sale it will go. The last one I saw for sale here sold the first day. At $190, it's hard... |
