| Post on Speltz Anti-ICs What cables did you replace? | |
| most accurate loudspeakers.... Duntech and Dunlavy claimed to build the most accurate loudspeakers, and had a large number of measurements of different parameters made in anecholic chambers to back that claim up. In-room they, as all speakers, might deviate from neutrality, but... | |
| ADDING A SOFT ON/ OFF CIRCUIT TO A UNIT Agree with Raquel, leave it on all the time. My external crossovers are always on, no adverse effects. | |
| Thiel/Crutchfield Actually, given that in the past Thiel was very fussy about its dealers being able to properly set up and demonstrate their speakers, this is a major departure for them. | |
| Thiel/Crutchfield I considered that too, Unsound, and that is a reasonable explanation, but I can't see people putting something as big as a Thiel floorstander in front of their screen, plus the Polk speakers, for example, are priced per pair. I'm probably being un... | |
| Thiel/Crutchfield The implications are either (i) that these speakers are so expensive compared with the other models Crutchfield sells that they will resort to deceptive advertising practices in order to make them seem affordable, or (ii) mono has made a complete ... | |
| NOLA Speakers I believe that Carl (at Nola) does upgrades to the old Alon speakers, you should call him about that, as he'll probably be able to take care of any used Alon speakers you might decide to get, if you go that route. | |
| LammLP2 vs. Arc PH_7 I considered the Shelter, which is a very nice cartridge and should have more than enough output to work well with the Lamm. However, I preferred the EMT JSD5, as it had much of the midrange of my Koetsu RSP, better bass and dynamics, and a good d... | |
| LammLP2 vs. Arc PH_7 I own a Lamm LP2 Deluxe, but haven't heard the ARC (though I far preferred the Lamm to prior ARC units I had heard, just seemed more like music, the ARCs being more to the analytical side). To my aging ears the Lamm is slightly dark-sounding, exce... | |
| Best player for Poorly Recorded redbook CDs? Tweak1--While I don't doubt your findings, I am surprised that a player that supposedly gets everything on the disc read completely would make a "poorly-recorded" disc sound better. What this may be saying is that many of the discs we thought were... | |
| Funny noise from Tube system I would ask Rogue. Since it's not there when you put on the mute switch it's not in the amps. While it could be tubes, it also could be a capacitor or even a resistor which only exhibits this behavior when it gets to a certain temperature. I had a... | |
| dissapointing audiophile recording In classical, the Reference Recordings recording of Respighi's Church Windows is the finest recording of the worst performance I've heard of that piece. Also, the Water Lily Acoustics recordings of the Dvorak overtures with the Philadelphia Orches... | |
| Insanely Expensive....and Worth Every Penny My Jadis JP 200MC preamp, which I think retails at about $30K, has been worth every bit of its price (as was the JP80 I owned before it), as are the Lamm ML 1.1s I bought. And the EMM Labds CDSD SE/DCC2SE combination is something that gets better ... | |
| Where does a sellers responsibility stop? Actually, it's not that easy, you have to hold the counter still and turn the house. | |
| why don't they get it? I'm sorry, but in this case I don't get it either! |
