Auditioned Magico A3 - VERY DARK...
As I mentioned in my thread where I reported on listening to various speakers:  I listened to the A3s in a very large basement area that, at least on looks, should have provided very little issues in bass, and the proprietor said his room measures... 
DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?
Ok David, thanks.    
Auditioned Magico A3 - VERY DARK...
erik,Having auditioned the A3s I agree they have at least the potential from what I heard to be class leading in their price and something of a giant killer.Though it feels a bit odd to see myself write that insofar as they didn’t actually turn my... 
DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?
@david_tenI honestly don’t know if you were serious in giving teo’s posts props, given I have yet to see anything but what looks like irrelevant (or specious) drive-by philosophizing from him. Though I may certainly have missed some excellent post... 
DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?
You are a wise and unsullied prophet...here to save us from ourselves... Nope.The only suggestion I have is that your posts should be less brief and concise.! 
DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?
@rodman99999@prof- You seem to believe that studios don’t believe cables matter. No I never said that. It wasn’t my point at all.I’m aware that the occasional (and often catering to audiophiles) studio use some boutique cabling. But that’s not the... 
DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?
Here is a simple suggestion: if you think ANYTHING makes your music more satisfying then get it if you prefer. If you think NOTHING will make your system give you more listening pleasure, then it is easy to take care of that.I'm trying to figur... 
DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?
dlcockrum,It’s a forum comprised of people with different taste and viewpoints.What ever gets "resolved" here? Nothing that I can see. In fact, what is supposed to be resolved? You don’t see everyone agreeing on speakers, or speaker design, or amp... 
Devore Orangutan O/96 Resale Value
jperry,The problem is that audiogon now blocks the sale prices for any expired sale.  I don't know why and it's very frustrating as I've tried to use audiogon to determine used prices before.  Other forums don't do this (e.g. you can visit an old ...

@tomthielProf, as a technical note, that wavy driver behaves better than any of the previous cone drivers as well as supports the tweeter wave-form launch very nicely. Therefore the direct series crossover path is simpler than any previous Thiel d... 
Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers
Well I really put the Joseph Audio Perspectives through their paces today! It had been over a year since I heard them and I wondered if my memory was still accurate regarding their sound. Turns out: yes!They are the most tonally ravishing speaker ... 
Do Bigger Speakers Mean a Bigger Window?
Looks like there have been various interpretations of the OP’s question.One thing I’ve noticed is that, yes, in generally bigger speakers sound bigger. Not just the size of the soundstage, but the size of the sonic images and the sense of actual p...

^^^^ Hey, who let the riff-raff back in here?No turncoats allowed! Well, seeing as you like CJ gear we can still talk.  ;-)That CJ ET3 looks nice!I consider my CJ Premier 12 amps and Premier 16LS2 preamp my secret weapons.  They are "organic sound... 
Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers
So with a bit of time off work, I'm deciding on my speaker purchase this month, hopefully within the next 2 weeks. Tomorrow or Friday I intend to re-visit the Joseph Perspectives which I haven't heard in a long time now.   Then it will probably be...
