What about the Hales Transcendence 5's I owned the Hales T5s for quite a while, years ago.I thought they were spectacular. They had among the most timbrally true sound of any speaker I'd heard. They had a particularly grain-free smoothness in the mids/upper frequencies (like Joseph... | |

High Performance Audio - The End? When he says few know this transformative truth, he's talking about me, who knows it. You, it seems, do not^^^ Right on cue: that's a wonderful example of the poo-poo I was referencing .As anyone here would have noticed by now, millercarbon isn't ... | |

Mag-Lev Turntables I got in on a kickstarter campaign and thankfully it worked out great:the Degritter Record Cleaner. The team seemed a class act from the beginning and that never waned. Now they seem to be relatively successful. | |
Thiel Owners Who is "they?" Thiel doesn't exist any more. | |
Anyone Using Harbeths with Grilles off? Audiophiles are often going for "as much detail transparency as I can get." And so they often take grills off. What often happens, especially in speakers designed with grills, is a slight change in tonal balance where the upper frequencies get a b... | |
Thiel Owners Hey folks, what's up with Thielaudio.com?When the "new" lifestyle-product owners took over it of course showed those products. But I seem to remember it went dead once Thiel folded. And I expected the site wouldn't even exist now. But lo and... | |
