Klipsch XB-10 New In Box Reduce them by 25% and see who bites. | |
Cornwall IV or La Scala vs the big boys Very different from the other speakers that you mention, and probably better than some of those dynamically, and not as well balanced or extended in other ways. | |
When did Rockport Atria 2s increase to $38k? Call them and ask. I'm sure they'll come up with some doublespeak BS reason. | |
Thiel 3.5 vs Klipsch Forte IV Speaker choice Not the speakers to get if you're picky about cosmetics, but they are good and that's a good price. You won't get Forte dynamics though. | |

Accuphase E-480 meter flicking Better have a tech look at it to see if it's a serious problem. I wouldn't use it until then. | |
What exactly is a speaker box sound? @richopp Magneplanars, as good as they are, have their own "sound" too. I recall oversized instruments and voices as a result of the large radiating surface. We each choose the distortions that we find easiest to live with. | |
Why do Tube Amps sound more romantic v SS amps Maybe I should have tried the F3.The F7 was a miserable disappointment with my high efficiency speakers. | |
What exactly is a speaker box sound? I haven't heard the effects of edge diffraction, except maybe slightly diminished imaging capability. I say that having owned Spendor SP100s twice, and they have a raised frame around the baffle. Where I have perceived a boxy sound is in some lar... |
