| 25 year warranty – thoughts invited I've got a couple of Decware amplifiers that have a lifetime warranty to the original owner. I think after a certain point though, super long warranties are a little suspect. With the comings and goings of many manufacturers, there's a chance that... | |
| RE: Percussion Album – Any Good Ones? Check out just about anything from Uakti. All are pretty good and the sonics are excellent. | |
| B&W design quality observation. Any downside Bo, I've seen you state many times that it was the crossover in the B&W's that prevent them from giving the soundstage that you prefer. I'm interested in how you came to this conclusion as I would think it could be the crossovers, the driver d... | |
| Critique my system... It'd be very helpful to see how your room is set up. The same components in different rooms can sound anywhere from dreadful to spectacular. | |
| KEF LS 50 in NE Ohio? It was great to be able to hear the LS50's at Mapman's place. I was most surprised by how poor they did in a large space; even with a fairly powerful amp and the Dynaudios clearly sounded better in every respect. I always suspected that the LS50's... | |
| Anyone hear or own Volti Audio Vittora speakers? I agree with what Audiodude1aol stated above. I heard them Sunday at CAF and imaging was pretty mediocre in that there was a center image and then everything else was glued to each speaker. They could've improved things by bringing the speakers in... | |
| What time do you wear? @IsochronismSome of the older vintage Seiko dive watches from the 60's are worth good money today. A nice 6159 300M or a 6215 300M can fetch 5k or more. The market is very hot for them. A one button manual wind Seiko 5718 chronograph can easily fe... | |
| What time do you wear? I've been a watch collector for most of my life. Although in the past, I collected stuff from most of the Swiss houses, today, I tend to collect some of the more obscure Japanese stuff. Believe it or not, companies like Seiko make some extremely h... | |
| Amp for KEF LS50? FWIW, I use mine with a MF M3i but the only other amp I've listened to them on is a NAD. I'd really like to hear the Kefs with a tube amplifier. Compared to the Harbeth P3ESR's which I also have, the Kefs seem to have less dimensionality than the ... | |
| The Audiophile's Wife no longer putting it out? I too will miss the writing and I like the suggestion that Audiowoman made about perhaps her writing from a new point of view. She was great with words, lots of fun to read and will be missed. | |
| Review: Ohm Acoustics Walsh 3/3000 Speaker Mapman, I'm thinking the LS50's are going to sound a little small compared to the Ohms. We'll see. I certainly can't imagine they would fill a room the way the Ohms could. Looking forward to it! | |
| Peak listening levels- For me getting into the 90db range at the listening chair is really loud. All my listening is down in the low to mid 80db range. | |
| Where Coming Back Excaliber was a great store. I bought my first high end pre-amp; a CJ PV-7 there when I was just out of college. While my friends were buying their first cars, I was buying audio equipment. Walking through all those rooms at that store and seeing ... | |
| Do I have a "balance" problem? If you have access to other systems (friends or stores) you can listen to those to see if you experience the same center image issues. That'd be a quick way to determine if it's your ears or not.I'm fanatical about getting that center image locked... | |
| Speakers with fullness and weight? Thanks for that post Audiokinesis. I'm always learning from you and for that I'm very appreciative. |
