| A brutal review of the Wilson Maxx I agree with a lot of what you say, Bigtee. There is tremendous time and phase coherence with Audio Physic speakers, though I think it silly to ascribe the sum total of theirs, or other speakers performance merely to 1st order crossovers. I have ... | |
| A brutal review of the Wilson Maxx Any response regarding the "specific" technical issues Richard raises should be Wilson's decision and responsibility to respond to. Given Richard's "extreme" POV and agenda, it is no surprise that _ANY_ company in a similar position would demur t... | |
| New Helix PowerSnakes Cable From Shunyata ? Absolutely. Based on our Beta trials, the Python HELIX Series is a significant improvement over the previous Anaconda, and not in a subtle way. The HELIX Taipan, is an improvement over the previous Python, and also, significantly so.As I said prev... | |
| New Helix PowerSnakes Cable From Shunyata ? Hi, The differences between the two designs can be seen clearly on our web, as we have posted pictures of the internals. The Anaconda uses a dual-HELIX weave, meaning two hollow core braids are interlaced with sixteen counter-rotating conductors.... | |
| A brutal review of the Wilson Maxx I understand both Mike's and Oneobgyn's responses. Mike's preferences are beyond reproach, incredible room, electronics and speakers that "do it" for him (I'm a secret admirer). Same holds true for Oneobgyn. THAT is what this is all about, shared... | |
| A brutal review of the Wilson Maxx Richard favors, I am told, the Vandersteen 5a's and other like designs, which are credible, long-standing industry supported products-- as are Wilson designs. There is room for both, and they are different enough that there will be spin in both d... | |
| A brutal review of the Wilson Maxx >>>"Geez, a lot of responses about a speaker only 10 people in the country will buy. (O.K., maybe 15.)"<<<I assume you are kidding. Just related to people I know, let's see: Audio Research, VTL, LAMM, two editors at SoundStage, o... | |
| New Helix PowerSnakes Cable From Shunyata ? That would not be accurate, Guidocorona. We license the Patent from Physicist Tierry Budge, formerly of Wilson and Talon Audio. The Patent license is an exclusive one, meaning we are the only company that can use it. Most braids are straightforwa... | |
| A brutal review of the Wilson Maxx >>>>"What Hardesty says is irrefutable (and you don't have to be very "smart" or knowledgable to understand it) - The Wilsons are made with inexpensive off-the-shelf parts and are technically modest designs that make it virtually IMPOS... | |
| A brutal review of the Wilson Maxx Richard, I am good friends with Luke Manley from VTL as well as Dave and Terry from ARC, just as you say you are. I think it relevant to note that both Audio Research and VTL _own_ the Wilson MAXX2's and consider them ABSOLUTE references for liste... | |
| A brutal review of the Wilson Maxx This thread has now entered the realm of the surreal. I expect to see a post from Rod Serling any time now.Bigtee: Anyone that has a "constant stance", and doesn't "bounce around" regarding sound and music, isn't being truthful or helpful IMO. "S... | |
| A brutal review of the Wilson Maxx With no mention of context, comparison, system or anything remotely related to a frame of reference? What possible value to anyone can that review be? 9/10's of the "review" was his opinion of measurements someone else performed, and counter-comm... | |
| Watt Puppy 7s/Maxx 2s I use the Atmasphere MA2 mk2.3's with the MAXX2's and can attest that the combination is everything that I had been hoping for in 2-channel music reproduction. I have friends that own the MAXX2's and use them with either the Lamm ML2's (18w) or t... | |
| Hissing sound on Hydra 2 Hi, This does happen occasionally during periods of high-levels of noise on the line. The barely-audible buzz you hear is the sound of the filter network as it deals with incoming noise. Once noise levels are back to normal or below, the filter ce... | |
| New Helix PowerSnakes Cable From Shunyata ? Allow me to answer a few questions and clear up some misunderstandings... There are obvious _differences_ in the new HELIX line, and they are not just "re-labeled". That would be unwise, given that a number of people will compare with previous ver... |
