| Anyone hear the Caravelle speaker and not like it? Oh forget it. If anyone is SERIOUSLY thinking about these speakers email me. I don't have to respond to people who attack something they have never heard. BTW, I have only compared these to speakers I have owned or directly compared them with. Eve... | |
| Anyone hear the Caravelle speaker and not like it? A couple of thoughts: HYPE? Nope, owned enough audio equipment too long to say these are hype....Go listen for yourself. To those that measuer a speakers performance by its cost of parts must not be in a business or are completely ignorant of inte... | |
| Anyone hear the Caravelle speaker and not like it? Touche, 'imo'....but how many people purchase speakers on purely 'objective' measurements - Our objective subjective :) review between the Caravelle and others was in favor of the Caravelle. My point was it wasn't a subjective, gee I didn't compar... | |
| Review: Valve Amplification Company VAC PHI BETA Integrated 110 Tube amp The quality control and attention to detail that Kevin applies, is exceptional. It's too bad more reviewers in the audio world haven't had a chance to review the PHI equip. so other audiophiles can hear about the PHI line. I am glad you are liking... | |
| VAC Phi Beta 110 Integrated See my reiew on the PHI BETA 110. It is a terrific preamp/amp combo. | |
| Review: Valve Amplification Company VAC PHI BETA Integrated 110 Tube amp No tube rolling yet. I believe the line stage in the Beta uses 6Sn7's in it's path, which can be rolled quite a bit. I have cryo'd tubes in the past with much success. Scott | |
| Any fellow VAC Phi 220 owners out there? Thoughts? I recently purchased the PHI BETA 110 (sold the Phi stand alone 110 (which was fantastic in its own right, and VAC Ren preamp) - The integrated is unbelievable - control of solid state, magic of tubes. Dynamic, transparent, musical, you name it. T... | |
| Anyone hear the Caravelle speaker and not like it? Pal, you will not hear the ports, ever. Period. BTW I have compared the Caravelle's with other monitors, and full range speakers and its strengths are WAY beyond 'subjectively' better, imo. | |
| Anyone hear the Caravelle speaker and not like it? Pal, I am partial to tubes. IMO - more presence, detail and 3 dimensionality. But the Caravelles sounded great on the Krell. The most 3 dimensional Krell I have heard. I don't want to get into a tubes vs. ss.....but I do prefer tubes, your mileage... | |
| Anyone hear the Caravelle speaker and not like it? I forgot to mention that the Caravelle's with a sub, yes in a larger room, would be my pick over the Maxx. Frankly I don't really care what name brand parts are in the speaker. It's the sound that matters to me. Personally, I think they are a trem... | |
| Anyone hear the Caravelle speaker and not like it? To clarify as an owner of Caravelles. In a smaller room, which I have, the Caravelle's are fine without a sub, unless you are an organ music lover, in which case you may want a sub. In a larger room, the sub helps, for sure, which was the case at ... | |
| Anyone hear the Caravelle speaker and not like it? I own the Caravelle and it is all that it is cracked up to be. I have owned Maggies 3.6, Hales 5's, spendor sp-100's and Diapason Adamante - the Caravlle is for me my favorite. Feel free to email for more details as to why. Pal, you will not be di... | |
| Review: Harmonic Precision Caravelle Speaker Well, I was the 'culprit' who brought the Caravelle's over to hifimaniacs house while awaiting my new amp. These things really are that amazing. I can't believe how well they worked in a large room. They totally dissapeared and the soundstage was ... | |
| VAC Phi Beta 110 Integrated I have sold my phi 110 amp and am waiting on the phi beta integrated. I believe it is Kevin's best work to date. The sound is exceptional. I did own the phi 110 and the ren sig preamp. Call Kevin at VAC and let him walk you through the differences... | |
| Synergy - Mix and Match - Solid State of Mind The Caravelle is a full range speaker for sure. I would defintely check it out as I am a very happy owner. For tube gear you may want to check out VAC. The Caravelle works quite well with my VAC. A friend is borrowing my Caravelles as we speak usi... |
