| Looking for "Last" 2 channel speaker system. Unless you're the kinda guy that gets a thrill out of diving head first into unknown territory, I'd suggest putting a few thousand dollars into a travel fund and then make the time to go around and actually listen to a number of top tier loudspeak... | |
| Wilson Wat Puppy 7 or Avalon Opus Ceramique? For what it's worth, I support Goatwuss's original point of view. While my stripes are solidly in the full range camp, I'd find it rather superfluous to own a set of high caliber speakers only to use them in an application that limits their overal... | |
| Fritz Carbon 7 vs. Tyler Linbrook Sig. Monitor My short, general synopsis:Carbon 7's - Between the two, this will be your speaker of choice if you want something that sounds full (for a monitor), warm, and easy to listen to. Tyler Linbrook Sigs - This will be your speaker of choice if you valu... | |
| Are audiophile speakers turn on for single women? When I was 18, a number of girls loved my Polk Audio RT2000p Towers. Suffice to say, those speakers played a roll in some great memories back then... ;) :)Nowadays the results aren't quite the same. Perhaps it's due to my not being young and hairl... | |
| Harbeth P3SER Audiophiles change their minds like a girl changes clothes. (hmm, did that sound a bit Kate Perry-ish?) I wouldn't worry about it. | |
| StereoTimes Interview with Duke LeJeune/Audiokines I'm not an Audio Kinesis customer, but I've had numerous discussions with Duke over the phone. He's certainly one of the good guys, and I'd love to spend time with his speakers one day.Oh yeah, cool article. :) | |
| Harbeth-7es or Fritzspeakers carbon-7 Here's what I've gleaned from my time with em':Harbeth's will have the advantage in terms of treble detail/extension along with better midrange clarity. If you want an expressive speaker that does a good job of capturing tone, this may be the way ... | |
| Amp for the Wilson Sophia3s The Sophia 3's are excellent speakers. I don't own em', but I own a pair of updated (2009) Watt Puppy 5.1's. Here are some excellent matches that I've found (note, all will be tube recommendations):Vista Audio i34. This integrated is only $980, bu... | |
| Paradigm Studio 20 v3 VS Ascent Acoustics Sierra1 Route,Nice electronics. Resolution Audio makes some good stuff. Heres the deal. While you own nice electronics, the Paradigm Studio 20s that you are using would sound a heck of a lot better on warmer sounding gear. This is mostly due to the Stud... | |
| Sonus Faber Guarneri vs Guarneri Memento All I know is.. If I were left alone with a set of Guarneri Memento's for more than an hour.. terrible things would happen to em'.. >: ) | |
| Polk LSI15 compared to Paradigm Studio 100 V4 Both are great speakers. Here is how I would break them down, given my experiences of course.Paradigm Studio 100 V4- These speakers give the music a more up close and personal presentation. The treble is more forward and detailed than the LSi-15's... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? In my observation,satisfaction (in hi fi) is often hindered by expectation and perception. I'll even go so far as to admit that I fell into this camp for a brief period of time.I dug my way outta this line of thought by realizing that hi-fi sounds... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Is it sad........ that after spending years in this hobby.. after hearing tons of systems.. after _owning_ literally hundreds of components... there is still not one single speaker that I can think of as "the best", even in my opinion.The problem ... | |
| Totem Forest or Mani-2 signature? Maverick,As Bdgregory said, you can drive the Mani-2's just fine with as little as 30 watts. Whether or not that kinda current is sufficient hinges largely on how loud Metro plans on taking the system, and the kind of experience he is looking to g... | |
| Totem Forest or Mani-2 signature? Hello Metro,Wow, bringing the life back into this thread after two years eh? To take a stab at your question:Will 80 solid watts of juice be enough to power the Mani-2? YES, provided that you don't plan on playing them in a huge room or cranking t... |
