| Ohm Walsh Pro 200 Cylinders - Sound? Owners? I have a pair that I bought at Goodwill some years back. Amazing 3-D sound from anywhere in the room! Mine are the vinyl wood finish - will not win any beauty contest! Presently hooked up to a Carver TFM-15 amp - another Goodwill find. Sounds exce... | |
| Ohm Walsh F Hope of Resurrection My Ohm Sound Cylinders are still sounding excellent!! They are the "controlled-directivity" type. Astounding 3-D sound from anywhere in the room! | |
| Ohm Walsh F Hope of Resurrection Remove the cones, pack carefully and send to one of the shops that repair speaker drivers. Get new surrounds and maybe new spiders. Repair cost should be less than $1K. Re-install the refurbished cones atop the cabinets. I'll bet they will sound r... | |

| Dynakit PAS-M & Stereo 120 NG vs Schiit Freya Plus, EVO400 and others The Stereo 120 was a good amp for its time (mid 60's). But certainly outclassed by the tube Dynaco ST-70! | |
| Dynakit PAS-M & Stereo 120 NG vs Schiit Freya Plus, EVO400 and others Why continue to use the Heresy's? I have always found them to be excessively bright, fatiguing and thin on bass.

| When was the first time that you heard great sounding speakers? Vancouver 1973 - A & B Sound on Seymour Street. Altec Segovia's playing the Stones' Sympathy For The Devil. Now decades later I have acquired a pair! Still an excellent speaker, particularly for Rock! | |
| In praise of the ESL-57 The Bedini eventually needed repair, the Quads and Futterman were sold. Now twenty years later I am starting over! Bought two pairs of 57's and a pair of Futterman H3aa's. Plan to stack them! | |
| In praise of the ESL-57 My first pair of 57's (1981 - 2000) were used with the Bedini 25/25 and a Futtermsn OTL. Both amps sounded superb with the Quads! | |
| What are your thoughts on the "Edsels" of the audio history? Bertagni speakers. I bought a pair of SM-100's at GoodWill cheap. Sound quality not good! | |
| Best Speaker for classical music KLH Nine full-range electrostats! Still decades later a "Holy Grail" speaker system. Designed by Arthur Janzen and Roger West (Sound Lab). I have had a pair since 1991 in use! Too bad most audiophiles have never heard them! | |
| Do pure copper banana plugs make a difference in the quality of the speaker sound. Free yourselves from the neurotic obsession with conductor materials! | |
| Do pure copper banana plugs make a difference in the quality of the speaker sound. Whatever I have at hand! Usually the cheap stuff! Monoprice! |
