JBL LSR305 Studio Monitor: Opinions? I had intended to audition the JBLs but found that to be logistically more of a challenge than I first thought. When I saw a great deal on a pair of refurbished Audioengine A5+'s I grabbed 'em.The A5+ are placed on my computer desk and after just ... | |
Best Computer Speakers Quick update:I just received a pair of A5+'s which I've placed on my computer desk and after a few minutes of listening, I'm enjoying the "larger" sound as compared to the A2+, which are also fine speakers IMO.I agree with Lak that the A5+ are def... | |
Audio Space LS-3/5a Bookshelf with SW-1a Subs Geoffkait:I read the op's post because I'm interested in the LS-3/5a's and you write:"Should be fine. The speakers are quite inefficient so throwing more power at them is a little like pissing up a rope."How is adding more powerful amplification t... | |
Chapman Speakers? Stuart is offering a custom wood cosmetic version of the T7 and T5.I don't know if this is available as a "kit" or upgrade, but from the photos I've seen, it looks lovely. His woodworker is a local artisan, and as far as I can tell, there's little... | |
Best Computer Speakers Hi Lak:Thanks for your post. I liked the A2+ initially, and liked them even more after break-in and experimentation with positioning. As good as they sounded for such small speakers, I felt that I wanted a "fuller" sound and when I saw a pair of r... | |
Best Computer Speakers Another Update:After many more hours of listening and some additional experimentation with placement and Amarra sQ settings, I think I've got the A2+s sounding great. I'm so pleased with the A2+'s that I figured bigger must be better, so I will be... | |
JBL LSR305 Studio Monitor: Opinions? I do have room for larger desktop speakers and will eagerly research the LSR series.The AE's are not bad small speakers. Imaging and detail is fine. However, my primary objection is that they sound rather "threadbare" to me, and I can't overlook t... | |
JBL LSR305 Studio Monitor: Opinions? JTwrace:Thank you very, very much. This is exactly the kind of intel I'm looking for, especially since I still have some time to return the AE A2+'s.Much obliged. | |
JBL LSR305 Studio Monitor: Opinions? Hi Bob:Thanks for the suggestion RE: Guitar Center, etc. I will do that asap.I also appreciate the audiostream desktop speaker review link. Ps | |
Speakers sonically similar to Sonus Faber? Tenken:If you are patient I bet you'll be able to find a good deal on Liuto monitors. If you're also looking for inexpensive subs, the Pioneers go on sale frequently. As I mentioned, I bought them on a whim and while not necessary, they're fun to ... | |
Speakers sonically similar to Sonus Faber? I found a pristine pair of used SF Liuto Wood Monitors on Audiogon for a great price. My dedicated listening room is 11x13 with the rear wall open to the adjacent living room and two other openings to the adjacent kitchen.I absolutely love 'em. On... | |
Best Computer Speakers Update:The Audioengine +2's now have about 30 hours of break-in, playing everything from quiet single instrument acoustic, to heavy beat electronic material. The additional break in time made a significant improvement over "out of the box" sound. ... | |
SOS: Andy Bowman - Vintage Tube Services I just placed an order yesterday with Andy and am awaiting delivery. This guy seriously knows his stuff! He's a straight shooter, and will not try to oversell you. | |
Best Computer Speakers The Audioengine +2 has a built-in DAC and amplifier. I am not familiar with other powered computer speakers.The Audioengine +2 left speaker has the power supply. This plugs into AC using an adapter which comes with the speakers.Connecting the USB ... | |
Spotify Premium vs Tidal ... opinions? I love the Browser/Discover function on Spotify as well. Your comment says it all. My latest "discovery" is some chamber music composed by Sibelius. I've got all seven symphonies, as well as a number of other of his works on vinyl and CD, by vario... |
