The Exogal saga continued.... I've been meaning to post about my experience with the Exogal products and company. Jeff H has gone above and beyond the call of duty, considering my Comet was bought used: he replaced a broken aftermarket cable for me for free, and payed for retu... | |
The best speaker for a small room...at any price point. Other possibilities: Though not at the same sound level as Raidhos and Vivids, the Larson speakers work up against the front wall and work well with room modes. I heard them at a dealer and was impressed. I'd also consider Kii standpoints--their D... | |
The best speaker for a small room...at any price point. Agree with the Raidho suggestion (or Borresen if you can swing the funds). Consider the D1 or possible even D2 if it's a dedicated room. Nice thing about Raidhos is they're designed to be placed wide apart and close to side walls (though they need... | |
TA-102 fo.Q Product from Japan "TRY These" Has anyone used the TA-102 fo.Q on glass windows? I was wondering if these could substitute for the pricier Marigo Dots. | |
Could-care-less Manufacturers and Authorized Dealers Bash In 40+ years with lots of buying and selling I’ve had my share of equipment problems. Mostly, the manufacturers simply did what they should have, but some went above and beyond… while others IMO fell short. First the great ones: MODWRIGHT: infini... | |
streamers under $1500 Really like the Elac Discovery. Lifetime Roon Essentials included with purchase. Streams Tidal. No complaints about sound quality. I use it feeding a modified LKS 004 and it sounds almost as good as my Modwright Sony HAP-Z1ES (which has more body ... | |
Vandersteen 5a vs Genesis 5.3 ? I owned the similar Genesis Vs a couple decades ago. As a dipole they will stage differently than the Vandys. They were very spacious and layered but lacked pinpoint imaging. I loved the dipole bass--deep and powerful. Really liked them with class... | |
YG Acoustics, Raihdo? I’ve owned both Raidhos and YGs, and feel that both are great speakers. The Raidhos better meet my current taste and needs. I had previously owned Peak Consult Zoltans, and I loved the body and heft they produced, though they were a little soft up... | |
Pros / Cons of Two Amplification Paths (different topology) in a primary 2 Channel system? For a while I had three different systems going, in my fairly large dedicated main listening room. One was a Tact system (modified) with room correction applied: Tact preamp, two Tact amps, four Lyngdorf subs and (at first) Selah line arrays and l... | |
Hegel H30 or Bryston 7B3 monos If you're looking for slam and dynamics without sacrificing transparency, I suspect you won't be disappointed with the Hegel on your Magicos. I'm extremely happy with mine in these areas with my Raidhos. I'm using one in stereo mode, which provide... | |
Speakers least affected by room acoustics Lots of good suggestions. What's your budget? I recently downsized from a 16x24x10 room to a 13x16x10 room. I had Peak Consult Zoltans that I sold and tried my YG Carmels, but wasn't completely satisfied, even with Tact room correction. I read abo... | |
Speakers that work well with Hegel H30 amp (10K or less)? Recently purchased a H30 amp to feed my Raidho D2 speakers and it's the best of several amps I've used to drive them--IMO, a great match. Raidhos may be a bit out of your price range, though, but if you can stretch your budget a little... | |
Raidho speakers..any interest ?? I use Raidho D2 in a smaller room. Presently using Maker Audio Ref 2a amp (formerly Edge), which provides lots of current in a very refined manner. I love the speakers. I was going back and forth between more detailed speakers and warmer speakers ... | |
Why So Many Raidho Speaker For Sale? Suppose it's time to stop following this thread, as it has now been fully hijacked with self-promotion. FWIW, though I have not heard the new Monitor Audio speakers, I have much experience with Heil-based AMT tweeters, used in ADAM speakers in my ... | |
Why So Many Raidho Speaker For Sale? I recently bought a pair of D2 from someone upgrading to 2.1. The upgrade is fairly expensive. You always see a lot of older models for sale at discounted prices when the new model comes out (same thing happened for me when YG upgraded the Carmel)... |
