| Speakers that are a great value! @kenjit I have to agree and clarify one point. I do believe that if you have a master speaker designer and tuner you can't go wrong. Just ask Fritz! His no crossovers design requires him to tune by ear the wrappings on each coil to get each speak... | |
| I can prove your room is bad If you really want to make a name in the market, find a way to combine the technical aspects of sound acoustics with interior design. Trust me, for those of us who have significant others who like to have a say in the living room, play room, game ... | |
| Do you like your speakers aimed directly at each ear or.... So here is an interesting question. Why hasn't anyone made a speaker stand that swivels to the right angle when you need to? At home with friends you don't need to necessarily dial in for optimum sound performance..its a little social background ... | |
| Diminishing Returns I'm going against the grain and recommend the Fritz Carbon 7 mk ll at $2,500 which with 35 -20hz and 87db with the right system has always pushed its weight above most speakers at its price range. Just type in Fritz speakers in Google, the qualit... | |
| Is nylon sheathing for DIY cables just window dressing? Thanks for everyone's responses - The Mogami W3104 -12AWG 4 Conductor Speaker Cable is not cheap at $4-6 per linear foot, but I compared them to my Cullen cable cross over series and these are as good, with a little more tightness in the bass. ... | |
| Is nylon sheathing for DIY cables just window dressing? Understood, thank you for your response. The Mogami W3104 -12AWG 4 Conductor Speaker Cable material is solid rubber with plastic sheathing underneath separating the 4 rubber coated conductor wires, so I thought I would jut shrink wrap tube the f... | |
| Wow an old album that rocked your world The Paul Butterfield Blues Band. Living in Chicago and "Born in Chicago" just rocked and crossed the racial chasm of what was raw blues from a brilliant harmonica player and soulful spirit. RIP! | |
| Non Analytical Sounding DAC Upgrade- Budget $1,500 or less +1 on Tubadour. Have had it 1 year. Did shoot out with MHTD Orchid and there is just more musicaliycoming out of Tubadour III | |
| audiophiles who are just getting the itch to upgrade @snatex - after having played close to 20 albums comprised of Jazz, rock, blues, both simple and complex arrangements over the past week, theses are my immediate thoughts on the difference between my Linn LP12 and the VPI 3 Classic using the sam... | |
| Need help replacing my beloved Magnepan.... Second the Fritz Carbon 7 series. I would ask anyone here to tell me they have heard a better quality sounding bookshelf speaker for under 3 grand, made and serviced by a master craftsman. | |
| audiophiles who are just getting the itch to upgrade Let me share a few quick thoughts and then I will reply back with more detail after I have listened to the VPI Classic a little longer. My first thoughts after listening to it last night. It presents a more detailed soundstage than the Linn. Some ... | |
| audiophiles who are just getting the itch to upgrade So I pulled the trigger. Traded in my Linn for VPI CLASSIC 3. Kept the Koetsu black cartridge. Chazzy 007, made a mistake, I have E88CC TUNGSRAM tubes not.6922 and winged C 54u-g Grey plates. Is it still weak link? As for the Fritz Carrera BE, Fr... | |
| audiophiles who are just getting the itch to upgrade Thanks for all of your input daveyf. So help me understand why I wouldn't look at other turntables; used VPI or SME, etc.? I am into the Linn LP12 for $1,900 (bought used) with Koetsu black cartridge ($1,200 used). If I buy a Lingo 2 or 3 used @ $... | |
| audiophiles who are just getting the itch to upgrade I hope for everyone's sake or we may all be selling our gear. Thanks for all the responses. So for final question, because funds are limited what TT upgrade to the Linn Sonedek lp12 would make the greatest positive difference; karousel, keel chass... |
