| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers I don't have a second wife; maybe that's why I can afford to audition these speakers ;-) | |
| Thiel Owners Jeff,Congrats on the Revel speakers. They have such good engineering (and science) behind them that it's almost a sure bet a Revel speaker will produce excellent sound. While we may hear they are not to everyone's taste, it's very rare to see s... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? Funny how the complaint of people have an "axe to grind" only ever goes one way on this forum.Always aimed at someone who may be more skeptical about the claims of cable manufacturers. But if you fall in line with "of course cables make a differen... | |
| Thiel Owners The other thing about the coax driver design in both the 3.7 and the 2.7 is the coherency achieved! Try as I might I just can not "hear out" any tweeter sound from the midrange. It just sounds perfectly meshed together. Even the most challengi... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? rja,Someone with the relevant expertise in EE could certainly predict to a significant degree what you hear. People in audio do it all the time. In my work in post production sound, if I couldn’t predict what you hear my job would be impossible (g... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? rhartshorn,Just to make it clear (if it wasn’t already): I’m not an engineer myself and therefore no expert on cables. I remain skeptical about many of the claims made by high end cable manufacturers, but open minded to the possibility some cables... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? calvinj,It seems to me, at least thus far, that you only wanted a one-way conversation: you telling us cables make a difference, asking what we thought, but not really caring and implying critical questions are just jibber jabber. Did you not thin... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? nonoise,I don't think your analogy quite gets around my point.If you had a richly detailed Ansel Adams photo, and took a picture of it with a newer camera producing a new version, every bit of detail you swoon about when looking at that photo spe... | |
| Thiel Owners jafant,I have the MFSL gold CD for SNF and, yeah, it was a GREAT CD version.I haven't really investigated the best pressings for SNF in vinyl - picked this one up at a record show and was told by someone in the know it's the most recent release. | |
| Talk but not walk? Thanks for the kind words, folks.Everybody: Welcome to the "faker/talker/troll" club now, I guess ;-)Too bad MG won’t ever let himself acknowledge I (or others he’s called trolls) may have sincerely said or asked anything reasonable. But he went ... | |
| Thiel Owners This thread reminds me of talking about your kids to your spouse.You can’t really go on about how wonderful your kids are to anyone else. It would make them puke. But your spouse is someone who shares your feelings for your kids, so you can tell t... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? calvinj,Ok. Then if you don’t mind some questions:I see those are some fairly expensive cables.Do you believe such expense is required to get the type of fidelity and sound quality you are hearing from your sources?Consider: The vast majority of r... | |
| Talk but not walk? Something got your many posts deleted prof. Correction: *Someone.*Despite your many accusations of "troll" and "fake" and any number of disparaging insults, neither I nor the others you disparaged were bothered enough to ask a mod to delete any of... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? calvinj,Your posts are a bit confusing here.On one hand you started a thread shouting "DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?"Presumably this question would be posed to all of us, including those who may be skeptical. After all, why would you pose that question... | |
| Talk but not walk? jf47t,You may want to pass on the last section of that post to MG in case he missed it. It's probably my last post directed to him :)And btw, my interest in Tuneland doesn’t go beyond being utterly bombarded by links to it in this thread. We kept... |
