| Turntable got absolutely crushed by CD those kind of adjectives ( that are " audiophiles " adjectives. ) no one can find out in a live music event seated at near field (1m-2m- ) at true live SPLs.@rauliruegasNonsense.And something of a red herring as well.First, when I hear live un-... | |
| Miss my Dunlavy Speakers, Were to go... @mailman199I have found Dynaudio just a bit dry for me. I’ve always found the same with Dynaudio. I was for a while quite interested in Dynaudio speakers but never could get past that bit of "reserved" buttoned up dryness to the sound.I always enj... | |
| What are the best speakers you have ever owned and why? I've really enjoyed all the speakers I've owned. And it would seem a bit arbitrary to believe one of them was "the best." But if I absolutely had to give that prize to a single speaker, it would be the Thiel 3.7s I owned.They had an essentially... | |
| What are the best speakers you have ever owned and why? @richoppIt was not until we hooked up Magnepan products that we finally realized that NO box or HORN or ELECTROSTATIC or RIBBON or any combination of these reproduced sound as accurately as Magnepan products. How did you actually determine this?... | |
| CD Got Absolutely Crushed By Vinyl Agreed with the comments so far: words like "always" aren’t helpful and I can’t take anyone’s claim seriously with descriptions like "always looking through a dirty window pane." Though I do think the OP was jesting somewhat as a flame on the othe... | |
| Saving the sound of the Stradivarius Thank you for the interesting article! | |
| Turntable got absolutely crushed by CD Thanks tomwh.It’s funny that raulirugas shows his hand with his last sentence " enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTIONS." A sentiment that could only come from someone invested in the SOUND of a system. Most people could happily listen to music through sy... | |
| Turntable got absolutely crushed by CD @rauliruegasDear @prof 1 : IMHO there is a wide distance between sound lovers and MUSIC lovers and for the adjectives you used to explain sound characteristics in your last post for me you are not a MUSIC lover What rubbish. You don’t know me. The... | |
| People That Have Upgraded From Harbeth 30.1s.... Agree 100%...To a speaker that is capable of showing how an amp with special qualities can shine. IMHO, the Harbeth's easily qualify.Ok, enjoy “listening to your amps.” I’m off to listen to some new LPs. :) | |
| The invention of measurements and perception kosstI *think* I generally understand the point you are trying to make, but I think you are rightly being taken to task because you are making a bit of a mess of it, but making mostly assertions, not arguments, and with some sloppiness involved in... | |
| Turntable got absolutely crushed by CD I've continued to purchase many (obscure) vinyl albums from the glory days of analog recording and I am so often gobsmacked by the sound!It can be utterly glorious, in a unique way that I often don't get from my digital source. It exhibits the te... | |
| Turntable got absolutely crushed by CD Edgewear, that’s your diplomatic way of putting it, but there are clearly two distinct camps here; "sound lovers" and music lovers.I disagree.There’s no such clear distinction IMO.First, everyone is here due to some level of interest in or devotio... | |
| People That Have Upgraded From Harbeth 30.1s.... The Harbeth's are a good enough speaker to easily decipher the difference between entry level and a $2,000 integrated. If he suggests otherwise, he is selling the speaker short.This kind of comment reminds me: It's always a bit weird to me ho... | |
| Thiel Owners Prof, welcome to the final destination on the ride.Ha! I know myself too well to think I’ve settled on my last and only speaker. I’m polygamous with speakers. As I’ve said: my Thiels are so wonderful overall I really can’t imagine ever selling the... | |
| People That Have Upgraded From Harbeth 30.1s.... I find Harbeth speakers, generally speaking, to be very well balanced. For me they do a nice job across a wide variety of music. Really big rich recordings sound rich, but not overly so. Thinner recordings still have some juice and still sound ... |
