| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 Righto...So today I dropped in to my JA dealer (who sold me my pair of original Perspectives a few months back), for a listen to the new Perspective2Graphene.Before I get to that: taking user reports and show reports all together, the consensus se... | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 cd318I believe that, in the right hands, the problems with metal drivers were mitigated long ago. In fact, it was Paul Hales' Transcendence series of speakers in the late 90's, using the Seas drivers of the time, that ameliorated my "fear" of me... | |
| Harbeth 40.2 40th Anniversary with Simaudio mono blocks I heard Shindo separates with DeVore 0/96s that I had in my dedicated listening room for 1.5 year. I'd really like to hear about your experience owning the Devores, and also compared to your Harbeths.I've been enamored by the Devore 0/96 whenever ... | |
| Guest suddenly takes it upon herself to move my speakers uncle monkeyYup.When I upgraded my turntable a couple years ago I took the plunge and spent a whopping amount on a Transrotor turntable which came with a really expensive cartridge. I didn’t even set it up for the first month or so as I re-built m... | |
| Guest suddenly takes it upon herself to move my speakers Let's not move on the the horrors caused by cleaning ladies.Turntable owners know this best. | |
| Any reason not to place stand mounted speakers upside down? Any reason to place stand mounted speakers upside down?Maybe: setting them up while drunk? ;-) | |
| Thiel Owners jafant said it best !" The ear/brain, is the only measurement tool for cable/cord assessment and evaluation. " Every time an audiophile says this, an expensive cable salesman gets his pair of wings. ;-) | |
| Guest suddenly takes it upon herself to move my speakers glupsonI understand the mathematical point. I truly do. However, having some kind of attachment to humans rather than to some inanimate object is what I am talking about. It may be whatever kind of difference, but I had people put glasses all over... | |
| BoenickeAudio's "unique" wood speaker driver? Same here. I find it very intriguing and I'm not aware of other speakers using a similar driver. (Though I'm sure there are some).I'd like to know more! | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 celo,Where did you hear the Perspective2? Florida show? | |
| Speakers Don’t Matter As Much As We Think They Do? A good room is transformative, and can make a lot of speakers sound really great. Agreed Erik.My listening room was renovated by an architect friend in consultation with an acoustician. It’s just a great sounding room. In fact, I’ve been surprised... | |
| Guest suddenly takes it upon herself to move my speakers Guests are allowed to do anything. Otherwise the host is not that great.Thats ridiculous. So if a guest wants to place his drink on top of an expensive speaker possibly marring the nice finish and also lowering its resale value, I should just suck... | |
| Guest suddenly takes it upon herself to move my speakers She was being obnoxious.I can’t imagine taking it upon myself to just move around someone else’s furniture or speakers in their own house, without asking (and having a darned good reason!).The closest I get to that is the fact that my 2 channel li... | |
| Thiel Owners Brayeagle.*bro fist*Not many of us here;-)It's not like I'm unfamiliar with having "heard" high end cables. I used to review audio gear for a while and have well-placed pals in the high end audio reviewing business, so I have for years been heari... |
