| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers prof, as I understand this, JSE Infinite Slope speakers was a company in Connecticut which utilized a crossover designed my Modifari. I don't believe Richard was otherwise associated with JSE. He was better known for designing tuners for McIntos... | |
| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers prof, this continues to be an interesting and informative post. So thanks for your efforts. Over a year ago you ask who is Jim Smith, but I noted no one answered that. Jim has long experience working with manufacturers, as a distributor, and as... | |
| Tekton versus Klipsch dsper, sorry, I posted the above before seeing page 2. So I didn't realize you bought the Forte IVs. I'm also interested in those so have read a bit about them. Bass response/extension seems to be somewhat of a question and placement is critica... | |
| Tekton versus Klipsch dsper, this doesn't address your Tekton/Klipsch question, but may relate to the Thiels. In my experience charles1dad is absolutely correct, "So most likely complex crossovers probably siphon off more amplifier power." For years I owned a pair of... | |
| Montreal Audio Show - anyone hear the FR30’s? aj, thanks for the video. I think with any speaker there is a "best" location. For some reason many manufacturers don’t take advantage of that. Unless the design dictates something different, many speakers will sound best when well away from the w... | |
| Using a mono speaker instead of stereo? Some years ago I read an article about small bars or tea rooms in Japan which included quality mono audio systems. Typically they had SET tube amplification with a single cabinet horn or other HE design speaker and vintage idler-drive turntables,... | |

| klipsch cornwall iv upgraded crossovers By "damping woofer" I expect musicmann1 means the metal woofer baskets. Most know this but just to make sure no one interprets this as damping the cones like the backside of the horns. | |
| Jazz Music Question dsper, many of the newer artists and recordings suggested here may be good jazz, but they are not "more of the same" as your Cannonball album. The "closest" was already suggested, the ubiquitous "Kind of Blue". Other similar recordings will be ... | |
| Looks like PS Audio has a hit on their hands with the new speaker yoyoyaya, about that rounded bottom design, I wondered if they come with a plumb-bob to verify they are set up vertically. ;^) Seriously, it looks very awkward to me. I agree that round surfaces belong at the top if utilized. And no, I've not ... | |
| Auditioning The Fyne 703 Soon mulveling, it's obvious that you appreciate the sonic presentation of higher end (Prestige) Tannoy designs. I never owned any but I do as well. A few years ago there was a Tannoy dealer in the San Diego area. Our audio club had a meeting there ... | |
| Auditioning The Fyne 703 Soon mijostyn, sorry, I misread your earlier comment as "10 to 20 Hz", not 20 K Hz. So my comment made no sense at all. Then I compounded the problem by copying your description, while again missing the K. Us old folks need to read twice before replyin... | |
| Auditioning The Fyne 703 Soon @mijostyn, not to be argumentative, I'm really curious about this. You ask about "from 10 Hz to 20 kHz at your listening position". How many speakers produce anything audible in that range? And if they could, what instruments have fundamentals ... | |
| klipsch cornwall iv upgraded crossovers eon, thanks for the further background. I can believe you’ve discovered better performance from where you started. And of course that whets the sonic appetite for more. ;^) I was not familiar with The Boston Audiophile that MrD suggested. So I we... |
