Beware the audio guru
@rodman99999 OT/Thanks. I admit I read your post pretty fast, saw the "sounds familiar" and just assumed you were referencing something else. I didn’t see your follow up post. Nonetheless I presume in either case your quoting it meant you agreed w... 
Have You Ever Owned QUADS?
I've always wanted a pair with the bronze grills!  I like that look.Jeeze, it feels like I started this thread just to make myself jealous! 
Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers
TAWW,Thanks for dropping in.Like the website!  I've been there before and enjoyed your show report.I understand the reticence on Thiel speakers.  They have sounded bright or dry to a lot of people.What I found early on was that Thiels can be magic... 
Beware the audio guru
 @rodman99999,So, for this theoretical reason I think that there is a complete consistency between the moral view, or the ethical aspect of religion, and scientific information. Sound familiar, to anyone?If you'd said there was consistency between... 
What Matters and What is Nonsense
geoffkait,Are you ever going to get a fallacy correct? Your record is thus far perfect! (Hint: no claim to authority was made, no argument via appeal to authority either).rbstehno,My reply was largely tongue in cheek, but also with a point.First, ... 
What Matters and What is Nonsense
@rbstehno Prof, not much I can say if you can’t hear a difference between a Home Depot cable and a synergistic research cable. That’s like saying you can’t hear a difference between a pioneer amp and Classe monoblocks. What can I say?I guess being... 
Thiel Owners
ronkent,The speakers are so easy to move around on my rug (one thing nice about not using spikes) that I often fool around with different listening positions.  I may settle on one for a week, or a month, or many months, then move them around. Righ... 
Thiel Owners
I sit even closer to mine (7 to 6 1/2 feet)!Though I disagree a bit with some of the things stated on the mapleshade site.  For instance the idea that sitting closer gets you better bass impact and slam.  I've tended to find the opposite with almo... 
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... 
Talk but not walk?
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...
