| AQ Hurricane burn in? I recently added Hurricane and Tornado power cords. My initial thoughts are the noise floor is lower. Bass is both deeper and better defined. The soundstage appears to be a foot or so forward. Everything seems to be balancing out and I find them v... | |
| How much do I need to spend to get a preamp that sounds better than no preamp? I've tried four different DACs direct and I've always preferred the sound with a preamp. | |
| Review Audioquest Hurricane (part 2) G.,I really understand the "why", but I hate the wait. | |
| Review Audioquest Hurricane (part 2) I'm still waiting for my final Hurricane power cord. I ordered it a month ago and Audioquest told me yesterday it may be another 60 days!!! 90 days for a power cord? Someone help me understand? | |
| Isoacoustics Gaia Speaker Footers I have GAIA Is for my MA PL500 speakers. I called IsoacousticIs directly and asked them what I needed for my speakers. They are very nice and will explain exactly what you need for your particular speakers. | |
| Missing the forest for the trees I think your title says it all, " Missing the forest for the trees." Myself included, so many of us continue to judge individual components(trees), as opposed to the system(forest). I submit the most fun, challenging and rewarding part of our hob... | |
| Monitor Audio Platnium II E,I never thought of it like you just express it, "They are far too smooth and neutral, and perhaps at first listen a little dark." I've owned my PL 500's for awhile and everytime I think their dark, I play something that has a little bite to it a... | |
| SYSTEM COMPLETE FINALLY! calvinj,I can't say I'll ever be done! I enjoy this "hobby" and like you I love hearing things I read about. | |
| Thinking of Kef Blade 2 to replace Revel Salon 2 I heard the KEF Blades at RMAF and was underwhelmed. I don’t know if it’was the setup or not. Based on what I’ve read about the Paradigm Persona 9H and 7F they may be the speakers to listen to. I’ve heard Salon 2s several times and really like the... | |
| Paradigm 3f, KEF reference 3, Monitor Audio PL300II bigdady76,Of course there are better speakers than PL300s and PL500s. | |
| Blade 2, Sopra 2 or 3 or Scala Evo? I hope you enjoy your new system! | |
| Blade 2, Sopra 2 or 3 or Scala Evo? Your experience sort of sums up the reality of trying to find the best component for your preferences. Comprises! No perfect speaker exist, so we have to make trade-offs to find the best balance to our ears. Good luck and I have you enjoy your new... | |
| Jeff Rowland Model 6 vs Jeff Rowland 625 I would send Guido a PM. I submit no one knows more about Jeff Rowland on Audiogon than him. | |
| Question About Raidho Models C, D, XT My friend has Raidho C3.1 with Absolare mono-amps and at medium to low volume it's one if the best systems I've ever heard. | |
| Question About Raidho Models C, D, XT Raidho’s and Wilson’s are completely different speakers to my ears. Unless you purchase the D series, Raidho's are best at medium to low volume. The Wilson’s are some of the most dynamic speakers I’ve ever heard and can play extremely loud. |
