| What Do You Think Of This? Did you consider offering to have him take this to a repair shop for diagnosis? There may not be a repair shop in his area but I would at least have considered that. I think you are being more than fair with this buyer. It seems to me that some pe... | |
| Waiting on 802D3 to arrive -- Will I need a sub? The answer to your question, in my opinion, is not always do I hear enough bass to satisfy myself? Bass frequencies suck up a lot of amp power which means that amp power isn’t there for the higher frequencies if it is need. Drawing great amounts o... | |
| Speaker Placement - When it's perfect! If you have completed the journey to perfection in a year you have certainly done so much faster that I was able to so do. I complete that same journey two +/- time a year until I play a recording or two that sound terrible and I then renew my int... | |
| Disappointed w/ Klipsch Heresy III. Now what? Have you tried pointing them slightly upwards? You simply place something underneath the front feet/spikes of the speaker to change, somewhat slightly, the vertical direction of the speaker. It will be very hard for your eye to ever pick up the sl... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering It always seems like an unfortunate use of this or any other forum when the conversation deteriorates into personal criticisms of other posters. The DIs may be Great speakers to some and not so great to others, We are all going to form our opinion... | |
| Bass distortion-Playing LP's only,,,,please help It has been a while since I had to deal with issues like you describe but, as one other poster suggests, this sounds like it could be a feed back issue of some sort since you may be unknowingly producing frequencies with this recording that are so... | |
| Suggestions to help you sell your equipment on Audiogon You listing suggestions are very helpful and I have found, over the years, that they are also likely to produce the best results. Thanks. | |
| Tekton room at the Los Angles Audio Show. Over the years I have attended a number of audio shows and I have always enjoyed them. The one thing that never changes is that the manufacturer of the speaker, amplifier, turntable, processor or whatever piece of equipment you discuss abso... | |
| Who is the WORST Audio Shop? A VERY good dealer is Natural Sound in Framingham, Mass. They have a very enticing list of equipment offerings available and they are quite easy to work with. | |
| This is pretty funny and probably true for most of us Life can play cruel tricks on us. For many of us, by the time we die the system may actually be worth what we told our wives it cost. Perhaps worse than this is my wife -and her new boyfriend- listening to my dam system that took me years to perfect. | |
| Are You Sorbothane Experienced? Of all of the many tweaks I have experimented with, this was the least favorite. As noted, these damm things distort and are generally a pain to install. Once installed they are NOT attractive nor could I hear any improvement whatsoever. Mine went... | |
| Very Bad purchase from upscale audio Acoustic Zen Adagio I have not had good experience with this guy either. He just doesn't seem to be able to get over himself. When I spoke with him he was extremely arrogant and insulting and I was his customer. | |
| To Pre or not to Pre? Here is my take I have read and I believe I understand what you are suggesting. What I would also suggest, in reference to your characterization of what you heard as "dirty" sound, is, despite the absolute negative connotation of distortion as always undesirable,... | |
| Will changing gain affect frequency response? I don’t believe this has been expressly mentioned. You can significantly effect how you "drive" your speakers by adjusting the gain and therefor the volume the speakers put out. I would be Very cautious however about over-driving the speakers and ... | |
| High Quality Universal Player?? I have both an Arcam (older model) and an Oppo 105 D with the Modwright tube mod. The Oppo is very good and I would find myself hard pressed to do better, especially for the money. The older Arcan is also very good and I also have respect for it. ... |
