| Joseph Audio RM-33LE vs DeVore Gibbon 8, my experience. Cool.So, uberwaltz, what's your assessment of the Joseph speakers vs the Gibbons at this point? | |
| Top resale value speakers @cd318In fact, not just my audio outlook, I had to re-evaluate some of my other priorities too. Shock, horror, I'm beginning to wonder just how much Hi-Fi means to me in the ultimate scheme of things. Perhaps I have been a tad obsessive and tun... | |
| Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open. Since you listen at such low levels both amps are playing no power at all and thus both have very little distortion. Are there some yes/no questions I could answer. It hard for me to see exactly what you are getting at. Thanks for the reply!I’m st... | |
| Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open. What a terrific thread! Thank you Roger!I hope you can answer a couple questions that have long baffled me about the sound of some amplifiers - in this case, using my own as example.Earlier in the thread, you mentioned how the impedance interacti... | |
| Joseph Audio RM-33LE vs DeVore Gibbon 8, my experience. Nice review uberwaltz.Personally I wouldn't be keeping a speaker that had to be played that loud (Josephs) to sound good to me, as I generally don't listen that loud. But if you do listen that loud, then, I guess they fit the bill.(I like the Jos... | |
| Top resale value speakers (Old thread, but...)Agreed on Harbeth re-sale. It's one of the reasons I rolled the dice to try the Harbeth SuperHL5Plus speakers. I knew I could re-sell them easily.Tried them for a month or so. They were great, but the speakers I still owned... | |
| Magico A3 vs. Joseph Audio Perspective vs. Spendor D9 otinkyadI auditioned lower tier revel. 3 Models, I think. The Performa3 F208 twice. The first time at one store the Performa3 F208 did not impress at all. Second store (might have been the next model up, but it might have been the Revel Perfor... | |
| Magico A3 vs. Joseph Audio Perspective vs. Spendor D9 @freesoleI do find the Perspectives to be somewhat polarizing though which is funny. People who enjoy the Perspective’s, love them. Those that do not feel strongly against them as they did not perform the way that they expected them to. Very littl... | |
| Thiel Owners tom,I remember way back when I had the CS6s at my place, they were the most luxurious speaker in terms of fit and finish I'd ever had. The wood finish was simply gorgeous, a fairly dark brown with strong grain - I forget the name of the finish (m... | |
| Just moved - sound destroyed I think somebody forgot to check the date of this thread ;-) | |
| Upgrading of Minimus 7's Oh man, blast from the past. I had the Minimus 7s as a teenager. Never knew anything about them in terms of reputation at the time, but they absolutely amazed me with their sound. They sounded so weighty given their size. Perfect for a room th... | |
| Magico A3 vs. Joseph Audio Perspective vs. Spendor D9 sciencecop,Best not to characterize a previous conversation that anyone here can look up. Remember, anyone can click that link and see how that conversation went ;-)It’s funny you came in to the thread claiming I "keep feeding the forum misleading... | |
| Magico A3 vs. Joseph Audio Perspective vs. Spendor D9 @soixYou might want to take a gander at this thread to see get a taste of the way sciencecop argues, won't back down from an obviously rash claim, and ignores contrary evidence:https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/best-loudspeakers-for-rich-timb... | |
| Magico A3 vs. Joseph Audio Perspective vs. Spendor D9 So sciencecop claims the JA speakers sounded "awful" and not clean. Virtually every other discerning listener has found the opposite.Including Atkinson who I'm sure is far more experienced measuring speakers/correlating them to audible artifacts.... | |
| Magico A3 vs. Joseph Audio Perspective vs. Spendor D9 LOL, again sciencecop? This didn’t go terribly well for you last time you tried hanging on to an indefensible claim against evidence to the contrary, concerning specific speakers with which you apparently had no experience. (Remember your trying t... |
