Revel F208 Review by Earl
You express yourself in "audioneese" about as well as anyoneI've heard Earl.The brains goal is to maintain mental AND physical stasis of your being.It usually lets you hear something new in dibs and dabs so as not to upset the apple-cart.If you ar... 
Revel F208 Review by Earl
Earl, perhaps the best review I ever read on here !Frank VanAlstine, who can be a bit of a curmudgeon, made a demo at a MN Audio Society meeting that opened my eyes(ears) and those of all there on a pair of Maggies .Left no doubt they just needed ... 
Is it live or is it?
The main reason people go to rock concerts is its a social event. Thousands of people waving their arms is unison is more like a Nhurenburg Rally than a musical concert. 
Are Klipsch or Usher and Upgrade for Me?
Willand, I would not be guided by the taste of American Theater Chain management.Few months back I went to see an opera in the "Live from the Met" series at an AMC venue.The Klipschs were truly wretched, sound was so bad I had to leave in 15 minutes. 
Looking for really fine cables at really low price
On my Totem Signature I's, the ZU Event II's are FAR better than my Clear Day Double Shotguns.The single wire Clear Day is a very good jumper though.

Is it live or is it?

Looking for really fine cables at really low price
Nice post Nonoise, the kind that is helpful !I just bought the ZU Event II SC which is WAY better than the ZU Mission I was using. Great bass but transparent and coherent from top to bottom. I have used all the cables you mentioned save the Tempo ... 
Hostility from manufacturers
Right Taters, I love the stuff selling on here as "factory refreshed", somehow I just don't believe they sent it to China and back.

Which MM Cartridge for under a grand
Flieb, serious question.I'm not a rocker but I did sell a lot of hi-fi in the 70's.My memory is that saying rock pressings of that area were lousy would be kind.I agree a 150MLX stylus would be a big jump if you were playing Brahms on a minty Erat...

I love my Event SC and it only has locking bananas.Any opinions on speakon?
