| Sub-Woofer? I have a JL e110 in a 2 channel only system and it's awesome! | |
| PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium Preamplifier. DESTROYS SPEAKERS!! I like Kevin and have purchased from him in the past. He has been fair and helpful consistently. I question whether a PREAMP would produce DC (if any) sufficient to blow a power supply in a speaker ... I presume that the power supply referenced is... | |
| B&W 801’s Those 801s likely will output way too much bass energy and overload the room. It's simply the laws of physics. I speak from experience having had floorstanders (B&W N804s) in a 10x10x8 room for many years. Finally went to stand-mounts which ha... | |
| Sound Anchor Stands @jond ... I'm really looking forward to putting the Pulsars on the SA stands. They sound so great now, but if they're gonna sound even better with the SAs (as you say), then it's gonna be wild. Talk about audio nirvana. | |
| Incoming ... Joseph Audio Pulsars @avanti1960 ... thanks. The Pulsars are really a cut above the rest. Paired with my JL Audio e110 subwoofer, the sound is sublime. Everything sounds "right," and I now appreciate the superiority of a fabric dome tweeter over an aluminum dome one, ... | |
| Incoming ... Joseph Audio Pulsars @djohnson54 ... thanks for the approximation of the -3dB point. I'm not very good with those types of calulations. | |
| Incoming ... Joseph Audio Pulsars @djohnson54 ... unfortunately, the Stereophile measurements don’t give the -3dB rating. But, that's OK. I spoke to Jeff Joseph himself who told me that the Pulsars work great with the sub xover set to 80Hz. So, that's where I set the xover and it ... | |
| Good Used Speakers ($8K-10K) For A Little Listening Room My room is similar at 10x10x8 and is square mostly. I had B&W N804 floorstanders in there (a holdover from my days living in a condo), and it was a real challenge to get a cohesive sound without boomy bass. Yesterday, I traded-in the B&Ws ... | |
| Incoming ... Joseph Audio Pulsars The Perspectives are great, but were out of my budget and likely would not have worked well in my tiny 10x10x8 room. Does anyone know the -3dB rating of the Pulsars? I'm trying to dial in the sub, and the -3dB number will help with the crossover s... | |
| Incoming ... Joseph Audio Pulsars Right. This hobby is an expensive one since generally we go through a lot of equipment over time before we find the "right one," or so we think. Upgradeitis is a curse to which we all succumb. I've been pretty lucky over time in that I haven't cha... | |
| Incoming ... Joseph Audio Pulsars Yeah, I know. But, I look at it this way ... I got on a trade-in almost 60% of what I paid for the B&Ws new, 17 years ago. So, factoring in my net cost (i.e., purchase price less trade-in amount), I essentially rented those speakers for about ... | |
| Incoming ... Joseph Audio Pulsars It was MSRP, but I got a very competitive trade-in credit for the 17 year old B&Ws, so that saved me a lot of trouble in putting ’em up for sale privately and perhaps waiting a long time for a local pick up. Sure, I probably left a few bucks o... | |
| Incoming ... Joseph Audio Pulsars Thanks. I'm using a JL Audio e110 Subwoofer with the Pulsars and high pass it to my power amp. When I turn off the cross over, the bass coming from the sub becomes louder. Is that because it's just taking a direct signal and doubling the speakers?... | |
| Audio Salons in Greenwich, CT Toys from the Attic and Lyric Hi-Fi, both of which were in White Plains, have closed. | |
| Audio Envy Studio Prestige Interconnects I had posted on AA and here looking for an IC for my FM tuner. One of the inmates on AA recommended AE. So, I went to the website, did some research, and decided to give it a go. The price was reasonable and there is a 45 day return policy. I have... |
