| B&W 803D crossover caps Giving it another try to help here, after re-reading your scenario. For my project, I read all the cap shootout opinions and took my chances. My beryllium tweeters really like the SGO, but I cannot say more. Absoutely zero objections.For the mids,... | |
| B&W 803D crossover caps Dhl: My project was really different than yours, and it is not a direct comparison at all. Sorry if I failed to make that clear.Tweeter upgrade was only drivers. I had already started with the S/G/O, so my only variable was the driver.Midrange upg... | |
| B&W 803D crossover caps Dhl: I have a bit of recent experience, although with a different speaker. This summer I threw caution to the wind and did some nice crossover upgrades to my Tyler Woodmere speakers. I wanted to share my results in a dedicated thread, but I wanted... | |
| Audio Research PH6 Phono Stage - How is it? Zd542 has given you some sage advice. One idea is to make contact with posters whose systems and music tastes appear similar to yours, and ask if they are up to a visit from you. Spending a bit of time and cash on travel may save you from expensiv... | |
| Coda vs PassLabs I have wondered the same thing. Maybe a CODA owner will one day drive to Reno Hi-Fi to do a direct comparison with all the Pass gear there. I can only say that I am extremely pleased with my CODA 15.5 amp. And the boys at CODA are a pleasure to de... | |
| New speaker technology vs. Old speaker tech??? Royj- Yes, I share your sentiments. This audio hobby provides strong attraction for several rather extreme personality types. Uh, I guess this is a good time to admit that I am one of them. Getting past the hardware and technology is very difficul... | |
| Good Subwoofer recommendations I had Tyler custom-fabricate a really nice subwoofer for me two years ago. Fits the bill perfectly, and the finish matches my Woodmeres. | |
| Floor Stander with Small Footprint 7K - 15K Tyler Acoustics Highland and Woodmere speakers are good choices. And Tyler is great to work with. | |
| Recommendations on Christmas Music?? Here are a few traditional style CDs that I choose for top-notch recording qualitiy and performance. Stunning in both those areas, especially when played in a large room. -John Rutter and Cambridge Singers on Collegium Records has 3 blockbusters:... | |
| Class A Coda 15.5 Vitus SS-102 or Gryphon Mephisto The 15.5 puts out 100W Class A with a chassis temperature that is mildly warm, although individual units will vary. They will tweak up the bias higher if you request it, and it will be hot, but you will only gain around 5W of Class A. Unless you n... | |
| Class A Coda 15.5 Vitus SS-102 or Gryphon Mephisto Hi, Goldman: Not sure I can add anything, but my CODA 15.5 gives me everything I want. I have a large room and 4-Ohm speakers, and I still am impressed with everything from simple jazz trios to full-on Wagnerian Symphonies. I use only one stereo a... | |
| Don't you just hate it when--- Oilman- I gotta hand it to ya... you chose the absolute best way to reclaim your MOJO! Hats off! | |
| Plaster Walls Plaster is preferred for its acoustical properties. You did well. Rodman is right. Drywall is a step backward. | |
| Don't you just hate it when--- I can see a new thread appearing..'Don't you hate it when GOD commands you to upgrade?' | |
| Don't you just hate it when--- Well, Oilman, I would say 'you done lost your mojo.' At least for the moment. Do not delay, call Mehran straightaway, and let him know of your plight. Mehran is one of the coolest in the biz. I bet he will take good care of you. Any other path, an... |
