| Thiel Owners sdl4,Unfortunately you are asking for clarification on the one comparison I feel less sure about.It's been quite a while since I had spikes under my 2.7s. The 2.7s were second hand and didn't come with spikes. But since I also owned the 3.7s at... | |
| Thiel Owners sdl4,Funny you should ask :-)I’ve been going through just those experiments again.I’m sure it will be room and listener dependent. My Thiel 2.7s are on a carpeted wood floor.I have tried herbies footers, sliders, spikes, various forms of decouplin... | |
| What's your dream speaker? One of the best moves I have ever made as an audiophile - this will apply to a certain percentage of frustrated hobbyists - was to abandon the search for "the One", the purported speaker that would sound perfect, and seek variety. I have found ... | |
| My Experience With Tekton Tekton is an interesting brand. I'd never own them on looks and size alone, but I'd really like to hear them some day just to see what the hype is about. (And not to deflated the hype...just out of curiosity) | |
| What comes after Harbeth 30.1s? Re PMC Fact speakers:To me they were leaner and cooler, perhaps more neutral.They aren’t more neutral - they are colored. This shows up in the measurements like I posted above. (And you can see the same coloration over and over in the consumer PMC... | |
| What comes after Harbeth 30.1s? Completely disagree about the PMC speakers "keeping with english sound signature."That is if we presume that "magic full, flattering of the human voice and acoustic instruments" midrange that many find in the classic British speakers (Spendor, Har... | |
| What comes after Harbeth 30.1s? Check the Spendor D7.2. Amazingly fast, clear speakers with a midrange worthy of Harbeth’s best. My listening sure disagreed with that. As a fan of the Spendor classic and Harbeth midrange I’d hoped the Spendor D speakers had some of the magic. I ... | |
| You own a store, you sell 2 brands, which? Fer fun:Joseph AudioDevore FidelityTwo brands that, to my ears, do some things, especially timbre and tone, "so right" and yet do it by sounding so different. | |
| Thiel Owners Jafant,I'm glad you are finally getting there.Makes me feel fortunate not to fuss about cables. Would rather get listening to music faster :-) | |
| Thiel Owners jafant,So you have the system up and running now?Or do you mean you still actually need to choose cables before your system is set up? | |
| KEF Reference 3 or Raidho X2? KEFs are more neutral than the Raidho - KEF generally following the science of speaker design supported by Floyd Toole's (and Harman Kardon's) research, which is a neutral on axis sound with lightly sloping off axis frequency response so as not to... | |
| Thiel Owners Jafant,I haven't been following this thread so much lately: How are the Thiels sounding in your system? Are they fully satisfying, or is there any aspect of the sound you are working on?I continue to love and be amazed by my 2.7s! | |
| Low-sensitivity speakers — What's special about them? I miss almarg too!:-( | |
| Demos - To Charge a Fee or to Not Charge a Fee? Ah, I included a profanity in the post. My bad.ETA: It's been reposted with the bad word removed. Cheers. | |
| Demos - To Charge a Fee or to Not Charge a Fee? Can someone please explain on what basis my post would have been removed, where I asked a question that included a description of some poor dealer experiences (without even naming the dealers?).It violated precisely none of the guidelines for post... |
