| Incoming ... Joseph Audio Pulsars Yes Jafant, that has intrigued me as well. We hear of very few Pearl owners (though there's a nice report in the links I gave from the VPI guy. | |
| Incoming ... Joseph Audio Pulsars "I have yet to hear even faint praise for the Pearl 3. "Are you joking? You must not be paying attention then.There is plenty of praise for the Pearl speakers, including the Pearl 3. In fact I don't think I've ever read anything but a positive, ... | |
| Personas....7F vs 9H I just want to say that this is the type of thread were a dealer, like audiotroy, can really make a contribution. I think his response was excellent, and if I myself were still interested in the Personas I'd really appreciate that input. | |
| Still looking for speakers in the 10-20,000 range Folks,Sneaking my own question in to this thread (as it's not worth it's own thread):I'm considering purchasing a pair of really nice Joseph Audio Perspective speakers that are in a high quality gloss white. It would be something of a try them ou... | |
| 20 Year Old Amplifiers compared to 2017 tantra4 wrote (last year):I am still using a pair of CJ Premier 12 monoblock tube amps from about 20 years ago. They still sound glorious, warm and very engaging. I've thought about having CJ upgrade the caps. Any thoughts about this? As a ... | |
| How old are your speakers I'm amazed and impressed to see many people here hanging on to speakers for so long. I've had some speakers for a long time, but my "main" speakers have been a parade of different models over the last couple decades.My Thiel 3.7s and 2.7s are 5 t... | |
| Incoming ... Joseph Audio Pulsars Good to see the Joseph Audio vibe going on here.I really wish I could be in Montreal to hear the JA Perspectives Jeff is bringing for demo this weekend. | |
| Help! Tweaking My Lovan Rack for new Big A**ed Transrotor Turntable! Thank again. Question though:I find the sound coming from this Transrotor/Micro Benz cartridge to be in most ways remarkable - dead silent background, utter clarity, smooth, punchy etc. The ONE thing that has me hesitating to fall in love with i... | |
| Help! Tweaking My Lovan Rack for new Big A**ed Transrotor Turntable! Thanks folkfreak.It's hard not to be paranoid. Every time I hear something I may not like I'll be left wondering "is this how the turntable/cartridge sounds...or is this an artifact of the cartridge having been damaged subtly?" | |
| Two Type of sound and listener preference are there more? "I've noticed that small manufacturers are frequently arbitrary and a bit nutty. "Yup. Noticed this too. Similar to obsessives who run smaller high end audio stores.There was a guy who ran an audio store for a long time near me who had tons of s... | |
| Help! Tweaking My Lovan Rack for new Big A**ed Transrotor Turntable! First, thanks for the previous replies.Ok, so my buddy came over today to re-set the cartridge and check it out. It seems like the cartridge is ok, thank goodness.Though after re-aligning it the sound changed. Before the cartridge was knocked ... | |
| Is Agon becoming the eBay of audio? So far I’ve only had good experiences on Audiogon (and on Canuck Audio Mart). With the exception of one foreign seller who turned out to be shady and thankfully I didn’t bite.I endeavor to be as honest and descriptive as possible when I sell, and ... | |
| Two Type of sound and listener preference are there more? When I am describing musicality, I can use only words that convey feelings, emotions, and physical motions like toe-tapping (thanks, ctsooner!). Well, ok, but as I said I think that’s useless. My toe taps to everything on my car radio. And to spea... | |
| Two Type of sound and listener preference are there more? audiotroy,I think it depends on what we mean by "aggressive." Certainly trumpets have a lot of acoustic power and can play in the high frequencies. In that sense they can sound aggressive. But when it comes to hi fi reproduction, "aggressive" tend... | |
| Still looking for speakers in the 10-20,000 range I agree with alucard19's suggestion.I auditioned the Kanta and the Paradigm Persona speakers and the Persona has the same type of clarity in the mids and highs as the Focal (maybe better), but is more neutral top to bottom, with excellent, integra... |
