| What are the current useless terms in this "audio world" buellrider97,I think that you mean gobsmacked. | |
| Manufacturers past their heyday While you're at it teo, it's manage, not managed. | |
| What are the current useless terms in this "audio world" fynnegan,I don't understand your comment. Unequivocally is a perfectly useful word in the right context, and has nothing to do specifically with audio. Why should it be banned?Full loom refers to using one brand of wires exclusively for interconne... | |
| Manufacturers past their heyday Apogee doesn't count hifi28. They've been out of business for many years. | |

| Horn speakers , high efficiency but not “shouty” johnk,The OP's new speaker is a back loaded horn with a full range river, right?I never really considered this type of speaker "horns", but I guess they are in their own way. | |
| klipshorn speakers I owned them for years and really enjoyed them with all genres of music. They can be played very loud, but that's not their finest virtue. If you have the space and a good system preceding them, there will be beautiful music. Maybe not the most ac... | |
| marketing contact at Affirm financing for audio equipment It's too bad that the emergence of these companies have made it nearly impossible for a seller to get paid with a check or a bank check. I recall giving and accepting them many times back in the day with no issues, and better yet, no fees!They're ... |
