Does anybody change their speaker placement with different types of music and bands? God no! | |
Thiel Owners JafantYour Cable recommendations are always appreciated ;-)Which CJ gear have you owned? | |
Joseph Audio Pulsar 2 Graphene Placement & Break-In? Thanks very much jay! There are very few who have owned both so yours is valuable insight. Cheers. | |
Thiel Owners Hi TomI’ve been able to use a fairly wide variety of cables in my system off and on (Nordost, Audioquest, others...often loaned or given by audiophile friends/acquaintances). But that’s not because I’m craving high end cables, just because if I ne... | |
Thiel Owners **peeks in.** **decides to stay out of thread until cable discussion is over ;-)** | |
Joseph Audio Pulsar 2 Graphene Placement & Break-In? jayh31Understood they were an issue in your room, but otherwise can you tell me what difference you heard between the originals and the 2s?Thanks. | |
Joseph Audio Pulsar 2 Graphene Placement & Break-In? audioal11jay's Pulsar 2s are up for sale on Audiogon. That should answer your question ;-)At least for jay's space. There's been all good notices about the Pulsars at shows, and an exhibitor using JA speakers said they seem to work in most rooms. | |
Proac D30R vs Devore O93 itzhak,Fair enough if in fact the D30 is a "completely different" speaker. I haven’t heard it. But Proac does have a house sound.As for the ribbon tweeter, sorry but I don’t buy your take on this. It’s not that I’m "not used" to "superior" tweeter... | |
Proac D30R vs Devore O93 I haven't heard that particular Proac model, but doing my best to add anything:Every Proac I've heard (and I auditioned the Proac D20R) has a similar sonic signature: it sounds definitely "sculpted" to me, a sort of richness in the lower mids, th... | |
Y No YG ? Too bad no measurements in the soundstage review.As I remember it was the A3 that was put up against some Revel speakers and didn't fare as well both in measured performance or blind listening tests.Also interesting is the fact such an incredibly ... | |
Harbeth Super HL 5 Plus room size? You should be fine. Harbeths actually seem to do pretty well in "normal size rooms," especially as they probably originally targetted British homes (I believe Alan Shaw has said so).In any case, my Harbeth SuperHL5plus worked fine in my 13' x 15'... | |
Thiel Owners "Meadowlark seems to be back:’Interesting that they are no longer touting time/phase coherency the way they did back when they were doing passive speakers. I’d guess perhaps they are still trying to achieve it via DSP, but if so it’s weird that th... | |
beryllium vs diamond kosstI said they sounded opaque in my last audition, in a grayish tone sort of way, and with less sense of separation and richness vs the B&W speaker.But I also noted I found the high frequencies of the Paradigm more fatiguing over time, the s... | |
Thiel Owners Avalon has never been T/P, as I recall.Neither Magico. They don't claim to, and Stereophile measurements show they aren't trying. | |
Thiel Owners Sad news that Roy Johnson, speaker designer/proprietor of Green Mountain Audio, has passed away.Aside from the loss to those who knew him, that's one less Time/Phase coherent speaker on the market. Not many passive T/P speaker brands left (Vander... |
