| Have you ever been blocked by an E seller here? Can you say what was misleading without naming seller or brand? It's hard to form an opinion otherwise. | |
| Do you guys like Adele's music? She has a great gritty voice, but her songs all have the same theme. Sad lost love songs. So cliche! | |
| Emerald Physics KCIIs or Spatial M3 Turbo S? One speaker is 2k and the other is 3k. The M4 would be a closer comparison with price and bass output. | |

| adante They are unforgiving speakers. A lot of returns and re-sales within the first few months. At their price points, they offer nothing new. The KEF R3 is a safer purchase.AJ should focus on improving his under $500 speakers, as that is his talent and... | |
| Full Range Drivers and SET's, why is a classic combo? No crossover phase overlap issues from speaker or amp. Point sourcelow damping factor of SET amp doesn’t overdrive the wide band wooferSET amp can tame the rising response of a wide band driver in the treble no or low negative feedback and no tran... | |
| Vandersteen 1Ci, Tekton Lore Reference, or Fritzspeaks Grove for a small room I'm shocked that no one chimed in defense of Tekton. Based on everything else I've read online the Tekton Lore should have destroyed the Vandies.Tekton got exposed a few weeks ago for paying for a review. The brand and its awards have lost some lu... | |
| Imported audio are you getting the same level of performance vs domestic priced equip? With Naim you sure are paying a lot more. Focal is trickier as they liquidate in the US market...sometimes you will see 50% off at upscale audio. I have seen the Klipsch Heritage line discounted in Canada, with US sales not allowed. | |
| Basic integrated amp for $700-$900 It depends on what sound signature you are after. That Vincent amp is not lush or tonally warm like a typical tube amp. At least not with the stock tube(s). It’s very detailed and feels like much more than 50 watts. My Rega amps had more of the va... | |
| (Brutally) Honest Audio Reviews From what I can see they are using manufacturer stock photos. That is normally an indicator that the speakers have never been in their possession. A lot of these types of sites are popping up. Their "impressions" could be coming from real reviewers. | |
| Thoughts wanted for new speaker design A little 2 way stand mount speaker using Dayton prefab cabinets could offer a lot of value. Give it away and if its a hit it will make your bread and butter speakers easier to sell. | |
| Metal cabinet speakers I have Focal CMS 40 monitors on my desk. Aluminum and very heavy. They don’t resonate and add sound/ambiance like an MDF or plywood box does. Having said that, a resonate box can be very enjoyable. I love Harbeth and Rega mini monitors. | |

| Speaker recommendation thread (Organised by tiers of price) Under 1k - Rega RS1. Just about perfect for a desktop. I recommend auditioning before dropping more on the LS3/5A monitors. Like all small monitors, they get better with a small sub like the REL T5. | |
| Recent purchase Emerald Physics 4.7's Audiophiles don’t ignore high value brands but they do shy away from systems that need DSP. I believe that Clayton Shaw understood this and Spatial Audio was born. Those designs aren’t necessarily better, but the no DSP required are magic words. |
