Need Help With a Bright System a quick potential fix. I was trying to use a pair of HT pro silway II (silver and copper)between my CDP (ARC CD-2 going to VTL tube gear then to Dunlavy Athenas) and pre but they had a horrible top end glare while doing a bunch of other things muc... | |
Review: Dunlavy Audio Labs SC-IVa Neville, i truely feel bad for you. Parting with the athenas is gonna hurtTjandra, when i went on a speaker hunt i traveled three states and listened to vandersteens, thiel, aerial, martin logans, revel, hales B&W (801n's couldn't even get in ... | |
Power Cord Length just a guess here but it seems to make sence...if there is any sence to be made spending big $$ on power cords. In an article i read about using the house electric service to run computer network signals they indicated that they put that signal in... | |
Room Issues i have the same floor to ceiling window problem in my room. I put a couple of big (read almost floor to window) house plants in the window about lined up with the reflection point. The plants act as a diffuser more than anything with some dampenin... | |
Help choosing tube monobloc's i have the chime in for VTL as well. I have MB185's and the triod/tetrode switching is a feature that once lived with can't be lived without though there are days i toy with the idea of going with the all triod MB250. I like the tonality of the VT... | |
Do you remember your first cd? can't rememeber my first CD but my first album was the Beatles Hey Jude. Probably says something about the cool factor of CD's..or lack of there of. Can't even clean seeds on 'em | |
Best Speaker Placement Rules you've used? I'm a long wall guy, pretty much always have been and i became especially committed to that placement once i got dunlavy's so your milage may vary here. The first order of business is to maximize seperation between the speakers without losing cent... | |
Warm interconnects recommendation harmonic technology truth links. Probably more neutral than warm with a full body bass. Cheap these days as well | |
Simple guitar songs for beginning musician Ah Grasshopper. Using tab and chord sheets are good for getting some songs to play under your belt but if you want to improve and be able to do away with those silly chord books (not song books) there is a magic bullet. It is the CAGED system of g... | |
How do you deal with vibration? just my 2 cents on whether vibration control works; in some cases an unreserved yes. I had a pair of silver/copper pro silway IIs that had some nice bass control and openness qualities when used with my CDP but they also had a horrific tiring glar... | |
Speaker upgrade help needed: 4500$ used a used set of Dunlavy Athenas or Cantatas would set you back between $2500 (probalby for contatas) and $3500 for nice athenas based on audiogone prices. I was considering Aerial 10Ts and B&W 801s before i heard the athenas. The Athena smoked t... | |
Mono bloc amp with long rca cables I've got 7m ics to mine, unbalanced. There is a little noise that can probable be attributed to the long run if you put your ear close to the speakers but nothing i'd call a problem. | |
Biamping; Amps w. Different power ratings? First time i heard about the peak/RMS ratio for high end, interesting. Was that based on your measurements? What about overall power demand? For my home unit i just use one mono per side and for live stuff it's usually moot as well because 2 to 4 ... | |
Biamping; Amps w. Different power ratings? Again i think the measurements well be dependant on what you are listening to and the concern would be with peak responce not continuous. Looking at the VTL site their power amp recommendations are based on woofer size suggesting that bass is inde... | |
On the Transmigration of Souls sounds like discussions my friends and i had back in the days when we did blotter. |
