| Class "A" sound, as related to Stereophile. Dave:Thank you for your response to my questions. I’ve been at this hobby for many years. One of the greatest joys (besides the music of course) is that I keep learning. One of the biggest variables that I’ve neglected to some extent, is the room ... | |
| Hearing Aid Thanks, stringreen. Since the Phonaks are my first aids, I have no reference. They do seem to add a rather "explosive" quality to certain frequencies. I rarely change audio components once I’ve found something I like a lot. However, now, instead o... | |
| Hearing Aid I find the the Phonaks very clear and open. My biggest question is to what extent, if any, is the sparkle of high frequencies "artificial" or not. I cannot say if they sound "digital" or not since I have nothing with which to compare them. | |
| Hearing Aid I was just outfitted with a pair of Phonak aids from Costco. What a difference. I decided to regard these devices as another component in my audio system, which helps me psychologically to adapt. My brain should be able to take it from here. :)Str... | |
| Class "A" sound, as related to Stereophile. Is there a list of qualities that outlines for a listener / review reader how to somehow identify in real world terms, the critical differences between a "class A" and "class B" speaker? All variables aside? Many years ago I heard a pair of very e... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? bondmanp: Thanks for sharing your experience with the lengthy break-in period for your 2000’s. In retrospect, perhaps I was too hasty when I decided to return them. Hmmmm. Darn it, why didn’t you call me? :) You’ve got me thinking....So now I have... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? If I had ugly black boxes in my listening room I'd have to keep my eyes shut! :)Strawberry, vanilla, chocolate, butter pecan.... | |
| Help, my system sounds lifeless! Speakers should go on the long wall with NOTHING between them. Re-do your room with this in mind, and it will sound MUCH betterI just viewed a video on http://www.myspeakersetup.com/ which heartily recommends speaker placement on the long wall, an... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Mapman, you, yourself, are a true gentleman! I don't frequent Audiogon as much as I did perhaps a year ago, but I've always enjoyed and benefited from your posts. Cheers back at you. | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? "ps: Out of curiousity, how long did you audition he Ohms? What about the sound prevented you from "falling in love"? TIA."Hi bondmanp:About 175 hours. During break-in I would play them at about 75 -85 db and leave the house while I ran errands.M... | |
| Sonus Faber Cremona Auditors or Olympica I ihmeyers,There’s nothing to be "almost embarrassed" about. :) Beautiful design enhances our lives in many ways. That you now own a pair of Liutos clearly indicates that you "get it." :) | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Full disclosure: I am a rather "visual" person having made my living as an advertising photographer for decades. For me, the visual design of a product plays a role in how much I enjoy that product.One reason I decided to audition a pair OHM 2000 ... | |
| Sonus Faber Cremona Auditors or Olympica I For me, having lived and worked in Italy some years ago, Sonus Faber has a certain romantic quality and hence, great appeal. Call me a bit of an Italophile (is that even a word?) but Italians sure know how to design and craft some gorgeous things.... | |
| Sonus Faber Cremona Auditors or Olympica I Just an update. I moved the Cremona M’s further out into the room- they were about 3’ now they are 4’. The room measures only 11’ wide with the speakers 22" to center of tweeter from the side walls. I like it. I’m using 12awg magnet wire for speak... | |
| Sonus Faber Cremona Auditors or Olympica I I hope my response will be helpful. I've happily lived with a pair of Liuto monitors for close to two years. I just acquired a pair of SF Cremona Auditor M's and am thrilled. As good as the Liutos are in my home, with my electronics, the Cremon... |
