| Why gold? As usual: The inexperienced and unknowing, decrying experiments, conclusions and science from their pulpits of abject ignorance. You're welcome to "The Last Word!" | |
| AudioKinesis Auditorium Beta - First Impressions Interesting. Thanks and yes can we have some pics? | |
| Why gold? I suppose it's because they never get to any quality recording venues, and/or have never seen what they actually use. Perhaps, they just don't have training in "alchemy"? ;-)Djembeplay,Don't worry - your ordinary connectors are not stealing the a... | |
| I could cry Time to teach the feline some music appreciation. May I suggest for some heavy rotation, at 110 db SPL: Cat Scratch Fever | |
| Center channels: why only horizontal arrays? If you cannot get decent mid and tweeter alignment between center and mains the I'd recommend you go phantom for a small audience of one or two. More trouble than it is worth in many cases but you'll definitely need one if you have a crowd over wi... | |
| Why gold? It is expensive but totally unnecessary. Don't worry you are not missing out. Perhaps you may need to clean you connections more often or give the RCA jacks a a twist now and then to ensure a good connection but that is about it. FWIW: It is rare ... | |
| I'm a Consumer Reports sort of guy. Is there a pla Bryston or Crown amps will be up your street. Built like a rock. | |
| In wall surrounds. I don't think that in ceiling speakers work all that well. Otherwise it is nice and clean looking. Paradigm make some very good inwalls - I teeny B&W's inwalls around the house - they are pretty good and convenient - good for the kitchen and h... | |

| This funny most tweaks and cable claims are just plain marketing hype and a complete sham. Unfortunately for everyone concerned. Perhaps, just maybe, collectively audiophiles tend to get what they merit - lets face it, manufacturers are only around if they ... | |
| Anybody tried Naim integrated with ATC speakers? I'd say you are at the minimum power that you would want. The problem with ATC is that they play very cleanly (low distortion) without effort and, as a result, there is always a tendency to increase the volume. A NAD M3 would go well with those sp... | |
| Live infectious funk jams....quality recordings I am going to sound like a broken record....but the film "My first name is Maceo" is sonically a masterpiece (DVD with 5.1 and Stereo) and extremely infectious live funk: Pee Wee Willis, Maceo Parker and Fred Wesley are supremely impressive in thi... | |
| This funny It's akin to a commercial lawn mower intended for use 8 hours a day five days a week versus a residential mower designed for 1or 2 hours once a week.Onhwy61,Good analogy. "Horses for Courses" - each designed for a different job. | |
| Replacing speakers in Lat-1's There are a few manufacturers that allow upgrades in consumer audio - although it is not al that common in speakers. Merlin speakers comes to mind. ATC also, if you bought an ATC 100 in the early 90's, it would have an older design woofer and an o... | |
| How do you train your ears? For getting started (complete beginner) I'd suggest the basic audio course by Alton Everest: "Critical Listening Skills for Audio Professionals". |
