| Bose Wave Music system NHT speakers that will blow the Bose Wave system away Nice suggestion, Avideo - the NHT Moo/Soo are popular in pro audio circles for hooking up to a PC. Chuck Ainlay (Dire Straits Audio Engineer) uses them. No doubt better than Bose....if you own... | |
| Speaker disappearing act? To be honest I do not believe its an issue with room treatments. I dont think treatments can help my soundstage but maybe I am wrong. Room treatments can do a lot for the sound stage...heavy broadband treatment of the rear wall behind the listeni... | |
| What speakers play the loudest cleanly ? For a non-horn type design, I would say that the larger ATC are the loudest and most dynamic speakers you can find. The ATC 3" midrange has a much bigger magnet than 99% of woofers (just to give you an idea). ATC woofers also use heavy magnets and... | |
| Long speaker wire runs Copper is copper, no matter how its dressed up. Its up to you whether you wanna use Monster or Home Depot type cable. Yes, I second those above who suggest you avoid hype...you can add acoustic treatements or a better component for the same cost ... | |
| Need your help finding a pair of speakers......... Ginas,Given "all that you have left behind"...why not try some pro gear instead of consumer grade fare? | |
| High power amp for monitors? IMHO, I'd upgrade the speakers before getting a 200 WPC amp. I think you will get more of an improvement that way. | |
| Speaker disappearing act? In my friend's setup, the soundstage is taller than his speakers. What speakers does your friend have? As I described earlier on this thread, you simply can't expect a large 3 way BE-10 to disappear as well as Crowbar describes the Gallo Micro. H... | |
| Need your help finding a pair of speakers......... If you are looking for an improvement in sound quality then try an active speaker. You can get top of the line pro gear with your budget. There are many active designs to chose from and they are all better than passives. | |
| Advice for music outdoors The Airport Express DAC is excellent - I would even recommend it for dedicated systems. I am not a fussy DAC person, however, as I can't hear the differences that others claim. I do use some fairly good AKM DAC's in my Anthem AVM20 for serious lis... | |
| Which $7000 speakers to ask Santa? I'd also look at maybe Dynaudio Confidence C2s and ATCs. Based on Beheme's comments on this thread so far, I'd second the above recommendation. | |
| Advice for music outdoors I use B&W speakers and a Russound amp for in house and outside - see my virtual system for details. I have keypads all over the house and these carry infra red to the all the components in the control room. All works seamlessly and good qualit... | |
| My Martin Logan SL3's are warped,what should I do? The curved shape is supposed to help cope with the beaming issues that you always get from large flat panel speakers; the curved shape will help produce a more natural (dispersed) soundfield, particularly noticable in the higher frequencies. | |
| Speaker disappearing act? get the timbre right and all else is unimportant. gotta have that timbre ! I agree with the last part of this statement. Correct timbre is a much higher priority than a disappearing speaker. However, I am not sure that everything other than timbr... | |
| Speaker disappearing act? Most audiophiles mean "speaker disappearing" in a virtual sense, however, as I will explain, there is actually a way to make speakers REALLY disappear. If you are interested to learn how to do this then read on...The sense you have of speaker loca... | |
| 12" 45 RPM records: What's the story? Onhwy61,Thanks that was interesting. I assume the vinyl details are accurate, although the bit about CD or DVD compared to analog was completely incorrect. (The author is comparing raw analog signals and the raw analog output of CD or DVD very pre... |
