Dented Tweeter?
Scootdog:I'm not trying to be gross here, but if it is a soft dome suck it out with your mouth. A vacumm may be too powerful & damage it. If it's metal dome, carefully do use as vacumm as Jeff instructed. 
Vienna Acoustics vs Revel Studios?
Chris: for a cd upgrade in your price range I would suggest the Resolution Audio CD-55 (pay about $1700 used). Athough I like & have owned Meridian, I find the Resolution to be a much more analog sounding source. Plus it's got upsampling...a g... 
Where to buy bases w/spikes for floor standers???
bobaloo...can you give me an exampleof a diy speaker co. & how I can get a hold of them? 
Vienna Acoustics vs Revel Studios?
Sorry Steve, but I disagree with you too. I think the Vienna's are great. They are a much more musical speaker than the Revel's IMHO. The Revel's are good too, but I would find them fatiging over time. Chris my recommendation would to keep the Bee... 
Analysis plus oval silver or oval 9 ?
my system consist of electrocompaniet EMC1 24/192 cd player, joule electra la-200 tube preamp, conrad johnson premier 11-a tube amp, ps audio p-300 power plant, sonus faber electa amatour (originals) speakers, rel stadium II sub, nordost red dawn ... 
Who build's Hybrid Integrated's wth Remote??
Twin Pathos 75 w sounds & looks beautiful 
Analysis plus oval silver or oval 9 ?
Viggen...no offense, but why would anyone like boring sound. Maybe perhaps you mean smooth or laid back as opposed to bright. I'm all for that. A smooth sounding system can still be dynamic, detailed & high in resolution, which is the sonic ch... 
Analysis plus oval silver or oval 9 ?
Ian...Try AQ midnight III. It's very reasonable & blows out AP-9. AP sounds veiled, much less dynamic & detailed in comparison. Quite frankly I don't know why AP gets so much press. It's BOOOOOOORING & drained the excitement out of my ... 
Analysis Plus vs. Harmonic Technology
I don't have any experience with HT, but found AP-9's to be a huge disapointment. Some describe it as nuetral & smooth. I found it to be veiled lacking detail & dynamics. Believe it or not, my AQ midnight III blew it out in every respect. ... 
My experience trying to buy a REL subwoofer...
Well..you're first mistake is dealing with Tweeter. I've never met any salesperson at Tweeter who had a clue about high end audio period. Quite frankly, I'm disappointed that Sumiko uses them as a distributor, but than again it's mostly for HT I g... 
To Sub or not to Sub...?
Hey guys forget about how low/HZ certain passages go. Especially if you own monitors, there is FULLNESS you can achieve by intergrating a sub. I own a pair of Sonus Faber Electa Amatours which go down to 45HZ. There really is not much recorded mat... 
klipsch heresy, please be critical
Quite frankly I find them loud, thin, terribly bright & very fatiguing. Honking horns. Hardly audiophile quality. At their price point you could do much better. 
Which amp is better for monitors....
Willyb...you being new, I realize why you may not understand, but we really need to know what speakers you will be using in order to recommend an amp. If this answers your question the Pass Aleph in my opinion is a more musical better sonic reprod... 
Class B int.=Class B Pre/Pro???
Class B seperates will almost always be sonically superior to class B integrates, but only if they are properly matched with the right synergistic components. Be very careful with Stereophile recommended components. They should ONLY be used as a g... 
Sonus Faber Extrema..bi-wire or not??
Definately not bi-wired. It will sound better single wired(more resolution). Try not to use jumpers. Pull your midwoofer out & reattached your tweeter connections unto your midwoofer terminal (it's simple , no soldering neccesary). Hope this h...
