| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Mdemaio,Yes, I remember and I also remember hanging out on the commonsenseaudio web site and talking to David Dicks, the owner. You can build a speaker around one of his drivers for very little money. I'd do that as a fun project once I have speak... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Mikirob,Spoke with Eric today and got some more details on the Lores. Eric is great to talk to. One thing I appreciate is that when I first mentioned to him that I was thinking of replacing my De Capo's, his immediate reaction was, "Very nice spea... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Al,Yes, that nails it. The De Capo's will dig down to around 42 Hz according to their spec sheet. While that's not the deepest of the deep, with my old Manley's at 20 watts, it would produce a good, clean sense of the very deep bass notes in some ... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Mapman:Interesting thoughts.I've heard the newer Klipsch gear dismissed with the same "mid-fi" label/attitude as some people talk about Bose... although not quite as forcefully! My concern with Klipsch these days is that they are making so many di... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Brownsfan and Mikirob::-D | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Right, I have seen that one. I may go back and take another look. It's huge, as I remember! | |
| Reference 3a - old brochure + Reference 2008 Hi, Daniel,Love my De Capo's! :-D | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Tubegoover,You may be right. I can only pass along what he told me in an email. I asked him if there was a home trial, or if he had any TE customers in my neck of the woods whose TE's I might audition, but he did not. That said, only he knows what... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Mikirob,Understood. Short of an unexpected windfall, my budget will not be $3000 and up. ;-)And again, thanks for all the cutting and pasting. | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Rwbadley,Our posts just crossed "in the mail." Seems we are thinking alike here. :-) | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Hi, Mikirob:Sounds like I aggravated you, which was not my intention!My budget, if I do sell them, will be "whatever I can get for the De Capo BE's." I don't want to speculate to specifically on what that might be but I'd have to guess it would be... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Again, not to be defensive here, but I thought of one other example of what I want to convey.In 1986, a year out of grad school, working full time, single and with some discretionary income burning a hole in my pocket, I went shopping for my first... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Smctigue,I don't take your skepticism at all personally but I wanted to comment on your post.I've drawn most of my observations based upon music that I've listened to over and over again. I had the Shrimp and Mahi's in my system (and was quite hap... | |
| Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp... Brownsfan,So helpful, thank you. What intrigues me about the TE's, besides the fact that they're specifically designed for SET amps like those made by Coincident, is that they echo some of the design elements of the De Capo: slanted front baffle f... | |
