| Help me shorten my list... Judy would cross off the 805 as she is opposed to good sound. | |
| What are in these Bose speakers anyways There is a great article that talks about the Bose Acoustimass system and compares it to audiophile grade components. (I can't seem to find it currently) The cubes are made of plastic, with nothing in them but air. The cubes are crossed over at ar... | |
| PSB Stratus Mini's I had them for a short time, some time back, and wasn't impressed at all. I also took them over to my buddy's house and used a 12K front end, with no luck at all. He was impressed with them when he thought the speakers and stands retailed for 500 ... | |
| Monitors for a bedroom system....... Marco, thanks for the response. Cause, you know, 75 grand and 2 grand are almost the same. And rooms are similar too. You know, the crapper, a big mirror, hard surface floor, you see a lot of bedrooms like that. Thanks for your post, it was quite ... | |
| Monitors for a bedroom system....... Rich, point well taken. However I think you are I are arguing two different arguements. Sort of. I still feel that you would "get your money's worth" spending the 2k, as the speakers he mentions are quite good, and will sound better (even in his l... | |
| Monitors for a bedroom system....... Rich, good speakers will still sound good no matter where you are in the room. Maybe not ideal, but I'd rather listen off axis to a pair B&W 805S speakers than I would Silverlines, or Von Scheikert VR1's. As far as your statement about reading... | |
| certin speaker makers harder to get dissounts fro Lush, I can assure, to no end, that people are not buying Rolex because of their service. When it can take 12 weeks for service work to be done. | |
| Classe CA-200 and B&W 805N combo?? JM Reynauds are a typical french speaker, too dry for me. B&W with classe would be a great combination. I've heard the same setup, but with Signature 805's. Very nice indeed. | |
| Monitors for a bedroom system....... "$2000 is too much to spend for speakers for a bedroom system, given that you will be listening while lying straight out in bed."Well, maybe not for this person. Everyone is different financially. I think the 805's would be an excellent choice. Al... | |
| Can anything beat Vintage Amps for the $$$? I agree, tuners are no contest. Amps though, give me new any day. | |
| Biwire speakers. Better or not? There are many, many threads on biwiring. You might want to check the archives. The answer is, it depends. Some manufacturers claim you must biwire, other say it's a good idea, and others say it's crazy. It depends on your set up. I'd try it and s... | |
| certin speaker makers harder to get dissounts fro The right dealer will give you a discount. If one says no, try a different one, although it might be a little bit of a drive. Everything is discountable. Someone that tells you otherwise is lying to you. | |
| What is the most important cable? Only you can make that decision. Depends on your gear, ears, and room. By brand synergy, do you mean all the same brand cables? If that is the case, once again, it all depends on your ears, room, and gear. If you want to tweak the system, you may ... | |
| Secondary Speaker If you are talking the used market, a very good value is the Revel F30. An incredible speaker if space permits. I'd take it over the paradigms anyday, if you don't mind buying used. | |
| Mom wants a shelf system or laptop speakers.. If you are seriourly considering lap top speakers, check out the electrostatic panels and powered sub for computers sold by Von Schweikert. Can buy direct on their website. |
