| Hot Stamper - myth or reality? As most know records are made from stampers which are made from mothers which are made from the master. The closer you get to the master, the better the pressing. You surely don't want the 10,000th copy from the 6th mother if you can get one that ... | |
| Some irrefutable truths about rock and roll What is this Boo-gee Woo-gee music you are talking about? | |
| Just a bit to bright Runnin has it right. Get rid of the stranded speaker cable. If that doesn't do it, you will have to kill the tweeter with a resistor. Contact the manufacturer for recommendations. | |
| Afraid to buy new speakers When you say they have to be close to the wall, what does that mean? You can't pull them out one foot? They have to be against the wall? No wiggle room at all? | |
| Help with compression and dynamic range IMHO, you'll want a Bluray player for video and audio discs (Oppo is a popular choice). At that point you'll buy the discs of your favorite artists and that's what you will be stuck with. Some will be good and some wont. You wont know until you ge... | |
| Tube Amp for Martin Logan Speakers I use a pair of Quicksilver Mini-Monos (25 watt) on my ML Electromotion ESLs. I'm using the subwoofers crossovers to take some of the load off the amps. It plays loud enough for me and it will play loud enough for condo use but it is at the very l... | |
| about Magnepan and power Use control and common sense. Just about any loudspeaker can be damaged by loud volumes. The Maggies can take a beating but everything has limits. If you are deliberately trying to find a weakness I'm sure you can but Maggies are very robust. I'd ... | |
| grills or no grills on your speakers..matters? Polk432 has it right. It depends on the system, the speaker, the grill. | |
| 'Holographic Sound Stage?' I totally agree with Martykl. Nothing else to add. | |
| Belle Klipsch VS La Scalla? I'm a Klipsch fan (I have 2 pairs, one pair a factory custom) but I'm also an advanced audiophile and there are plenty of speakers that sound better than heritage Klipsch. Have you looked at the Reference or the Palladium series? Very nice soundin... | |
| Best Used Amps. for Infinity RS-1B Speakers Lots of choices really. Some of it will depend on how loud you want to play, the RS1Bs need some power. The 120 watt Brystons are going to run short of power. I run my woofers with a Parasound A21 that's a nice cheap amp that sounds good. I have a... | |
| Price Increases "Apple to apple" comparison? That's easy they are loudspeakers, use your ears. All speakers are in the same group, just different prices and sizes. | |
| Infinity RS1 Servo problem Tomtab,70Hz works for me but the woofers in the ML are still active not like your system where the EMIMs come in at 150Hz so the lower setting works in my system. The blend is very good. The DBX is part of the pro line so it has either 1/4 inch ca... | |
| Album which you have listened to most? The Pink Floyd, ELO, Supertramp. | |
| The "Eagles" - Best Albums Desperado is my favorite album but most of their albums are good recordings. Hell Freezes Over is a little bass heavy and will sound great on a system that is a little lean in the bass region. |
