| How can a subwoofer expand the soundstage? The lower bass frequencies on some recordings contain ambient information that gives spatial cues that let you percieve the size and volume of the recording venue. | |
| 10 percent for cables ??? Where did you get that percentage, and why are you convinced that you would get a worthwhile sonic return by spending a bigger percentage? | |
| Art Loudspeakers, upgraded Crossover components Audio Note upgrades on their top speakers can be very expensive. If I am not wrong, I believe their top speaker with silver wire, speaker coils etc. is in the over $40,000.00 range. | |
| Art Loudspeakers, upgraded Crossover components Audio Note, after whose speakers the Emotion series is designed I think. | |
| JSE Infinite Slop Speaker Repair. Infinite Slop... now that's funny! | |
| What about Bozak Agree with Albert. A nice full rich sort of sound, but very pleasing. They were certainly one of the best brands around in those days, and they were well respected. | |
| Levinson 3XX Amplifier Repairs Considering the stellar, and often over-the-top efforts that companies like McIntosh, Pass Labs etc. make to please their customers- in and out of warranty, it is an absolute disgrace that a company with the Levinson name would leave their custome... | |
| Stands for small floorstanders? Outriggers, or better yet, screw-on steel base plates with cones make a tremendous difference in the speakers performance. Specifically. much improved focus and more solid bass. It is very easy to hear the difference. I recommend oregondv.com. The... | |
| Quicksilver amp owners I owned the 90 watt Silver Monos for a few years. The good points, (compared to the solid state Mac amp that I was also using in the same system during the same period)were the crystal clear midrange, and the 3-d dimension of voices. The bad part ... | |
| Excellent Outdoor FM Antennas Audio Classics in Vestal N.Y. is a good place to send your Mac for tune up. You can also send it back to Mac. | |
| Usher cp-8511 or Proac D80 or Spendor sp100r I don't know how helpful this will be. I'm very familiar with the SP100, but I haven't heard the new version at all, and I don't even know what was changed. Having said that, I have also owned 2 different Proac models, and they are quite different... | |
| Review: Spendor SP-100 Speaker They really do have an endearing character. Like all speakers, they have a personality, but the personality that they have is very sypathetic to the nature of music. Even though you can find fault if you listen (ultimate extension at both ends,(la... | |
| Why are most High End Amps class A As Stanwal wisely states, listen before you change. I have owned a McIntosh 2105 for 10 years, and during that time also owned a Mac MC 300 which I sold after 3 years to buy a Pass Labs X250.5. For most efficient speakers, at modest volumes , that... | |
| Clarity Caps vs Kimber kaps I have no experience with either of those brands, but if you love the speakers, and you can afford them, check out the Mundorf silver oil caps. They are 20% off at Sonic Craft right now, and they are great. | |
| Vienna Beethoven, Spendor 8SE, Adagio or VS VR4jr I don't have first hand experience with any of those that you mention, but all of the Spendors share a family sound which seems to be the type of sound that you are looking for, that is refined and slightly warm. I can definately recommend the cla... |
