Talk but not walk?
Ok, I’m outta here. Said all I’ve wanted to say (to say the least!)I do hope Michal considers more carefully how he wants to promote his ideas here in the future, and re-considers his mode of discourse with people who ask questions that challenge ... 
Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers
Thanks charles1dad!rlb61,Yes there certainly does tend to be a house sound within an speaker brand.  Both my Thiels have an amazingly similar "voice" and I've found most brands are pretty consistent too. About the Magicos:  It's interesting that s... 
Talk but not walk?
glulpson,Agreed on all counts.The idea of "tuning" my system continually per song, or even per album, is a complete turn off to me. I don’t want listening to music to become that much work! To me, that isn’t to enhance the listening experience; it...

Does anyone else here think it unreasonable to ask a Michael Green devotee how the Tuneland forum would react to a post with the character of the one Michael made here?I doubt it.Is anyone here, at this point, surprised that a Michael Green devote... 
Talk but not walk?
jf47t,So, are you able to answer my question about how tuneland would react to such a thread as I described?Can you find it in yourself, just for a moment, to honestly answer questions? (And...out of curiosity....do you live with Michael or someth... 
Talk but not walk?
jf47t,Those of you reading this pay attention to what Michael says and what the internet trolls are saying.You just can’t help yourself, can you? This reflexive need to call someone a "troll" instead of take a counter-argument to your beliefs seri... 
Extremely hyped omni directionals introduced Munich 2018
Interesting. I’ve seen a few pictures and video of those beasts and they certainly seem intriguing.Though being an MBL fan, I'm not sure I’m seeing anything very novel in this design.  Unless I misunderstood that link, it seems to operate via a dr... 
Talk but not walk?
amg56, glupson and others.To the question "Why keep engaging MG and his followers on this thread?" my response is: because I think it’s an important subject.And while many think "why bother, you won’t change anyone’s mind" that is often not the ca...

kacomess,Good question!The only reason is that my past (admittedly very limited) encounters with Vandersteen speakers left me unmoved.  I remember auditioning one of their next-down-from-flagship speakers (or maybe it was their flagship) and anoth... 
Thiel Owners
batmanfan,Yes my Thiel 3.7s are in the Morado finish!:-)But just so we are talking about the same thing: I’ve seen one or two people mix up the "Morado" finish with the Amberwood finish. Mine are in what Thiel called their Morado finish, which is ...

ohlala,Interesting observations.  Thanks.As I mentioned, I did seem to find a bit of weird behaviour with the A3s as I tested different seating positions - nearer to them seemed to cause some weird spreading of some sounds.  But I can only infer s...

Prof, in my world, being able to condense complex ideas into simple language is a sign of knowledge and experience.More than that; it’s the sign of someone with the talent to do so. Plenty of knowledgeable people don’t condense complex ideas into ... 
Talk but not walk?
There you go again jf47t,Taking a page out of MG's book - instead of answering my posts or admitting I may have any point at all, you come in to toss another version of "you mad bruh?"MG teaches his disciples well, it seems.Who cares if Michael is... 
How To Field Questions About Your Audiophile Lifestyle...
hifiman5,You bring up a good distinction - one that is much more in the public air these days having been raised by studies of people’s happiness .I’ve briefly pondered it’s applicability to high end audio and can’t say I’ve come to a conclusion y...

I was just out for a walk (live near the downtown of my city) and passed by some street musicians playing across the road.  I stopped to listen and enjoy the music but, good audiophile that I am, I also closed my eyes and took notice of the sound ...
