Legacy SE versus Vandersteen Quatros Doug, was your posting the -2db frequencies for both speakers suppose to be saying something about quality? I found that odd (especially for a subjective reviewer), unless you were replying to someone's question, but I did not see it. That sort of... | |
buffered vs. unbuffered outputs? ELizabeth is right, listening is the way to go, but the amp impedance is critical, but has little (nothing?) to do with how loud it will play, the impedance mismatch effects the frequency spectrum. Your amp has a very high input impedance for an S... | |
buffered vs. unbuffered outputs? The unbuffered will sound better if you have short ICs to the amp and a high input impedance amp - 100kohm would be ideal, otherwise, you might prefer the buffered output since you will need buffering to drive the ICs and amp properly. In a well m... | |
Ayre AX-7e to switch to Naim Supernait I think your Pass INT idea or consideration of a SIM integrated would be a worthwhile move that might be a sonic upgrade - ergonomics is an issue only you can decide. On sonics, the Ayre is a mighty fine unit. | |
Legacy SE versus Vandersteen Quatros That is a subjective review:) But I agree with you. | |
Review: Merlin Music Systems Master VSM Speaker What is the method for establishing the center of the first reflection point? | |
Merlin Master Bam Alert Crowded? Hilton? That's the one:) Or was it the Grand Hyatt? No, that's when I heard the Ars Sonum - it's a blur. | |
Merlin Master Bam Alert Stereophile Shown in NYC 2002 or so. Walked in and I knew they were going to be my next speaker. Joule gear, Louis Armstrong recording, found it hard to leave the room. I liked the idea that my ultimate speaker did not need 8 drivers and tower ove... | |
High-end amplifier clarification? Are you looking to buy one that just "makes it" and avoid one that just "falls short"? For the most part it is marketing speak, since most equipment performs pretty well today, or better said, you don't need to spend a lot of money to have "high-e... | |
What tube amps for the Quad ELS 63 Music Reference RM10 MKII. | |
Review: Merlin Music Systems Master VSM Speaker I use the bass traps 24"x48"x4", and first reflection panels 24"x48"x2" from Acoustimac (recommended by Agon Member - Clio9) - they are quite economical as they are intended for non audiophile - like studios, churches, etc. Maybe 1/4 of the price ... | |

Review: Merlin Music Systems Master VSM Speaker Which brand? | |
Review: Merlin Music Systems Master VSM Speaker "a bit fuller and more expansive sound" - that is precisely what I was trying to say, and if by relaxed you mean a sense of filling the room without strain that is what the change had brought - not night and day, it sounded superb before, but a bi... | |
Review: Merlin Music Systems Master VSM Speaker Hi Bobby. In my 11x18 room, I moved the speakers back from 66.7" (Cardas formula) to 52". I kept the tweeter centers 30" from side walls (6ft between tweeter centers). I was concerned about doing the 5 1/2 foot spread as that would put the woofer ... |
