| Wow an old album that rocked your world Two come to mind: Joe Walsh 'The smoker you drink, the player you get', beautiful, emotive music, like a drug experience (with no pharmaceuticals necessary), and ' Frampton Comes A live', which I still maintain is the finest live concert album ever. | |
| My amp suddenly going silent when volume knob touchedi have a ordered Sold my 1070, have had a few different brand amps in here with no issues. Just picked up a nice sounding vintage Rotel RA 1060.... same issue. Zap, no sound, LOL. Must be Rotel, other brands not exhibit, same living room, same conditions. | |
| Maybe I'm crazy, JBL 530 vs DCM.. reubent,This will work even with horn loaded tweeter/tops? | |
| Maybe I'm crazy, JBL 530 vs DCM.. Thank you, guys, I will do that. This morning I put on ' crazy baby' by Joan Osborne, and I'm hearing open airy snare drums on the DCM, and a more cupped snare but stronger bass line on 530s. Maybe just dramatically different voicing. I'll give it... | |
| Smooth sounding integrated <$1k Full disclosure: I'm selling a Wyred4sound STI 500. Personal interest aside, it truly sounds fabulous. 250/ a side into 8 ohms. | |
| BEST SPEAKERS AT A REASONABLE PRICE Reasonable price? Find yourself a vintage pair of DCM Time Frame speakers 500, 600 or 700, you'll be n pleased. Roughly $350-550 tops. | |
| SCAM ALERT ON MULTIPLE CRAIGS LISTS - Watch Out! I've been fortunate, sold several items on Craigslist from kids bikes to ADS L570/2, in person, at my house. I think you just have to trust your gut. Now ARMSLIST, that's a nest of scammers. | |
| Your favorite Small Apartment Speakers On the higher end, I think Reference 3a Dulcet BE have to be on this list. On a budget, I've heard terrific music out of a pair of NHT 2.1 SuoerOnes. | |
| What are some of the most underrated and overrated loudspeakers you’ve auditioned? My old DLK 1 pair had a more ' live' realism than many more modern, ' accurate' speakers I've owned. Paper driver, cts cone tweeter, real walnut cabinets..I dunno, some low tech magic. | |
| Reasonable high end interconnects: without breaking the bank I remember reading good things here about Duelund interconnects, $100-$200 budget if I'm remembering correctly. | |
| Which area of components to spend the most $ on? Boy I was wrong all my life! Yeah, I'm no maven, sorry, but 10 posts and big free shill for Marantz... Best anecdotal advertising money can buy. | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound Instead of listening to music per session and trying to hear if there is a difference, wouldn't it be better to record, say, cymbals, or a flute tone, a guitar note, isolated, and try to a/b it to see if the cord is impacting the sound? | |
| Speakers with the most detailed midrange? (non-ESL/planar) Respectfully I think real magic works when achieving this ideal midrange with a speaker that a working stiff can afford, say under $2K instead of $12K... I'd be interested in those recommendations | |
| New $24,000 inter-connect That's the thing, it's all relative I originally went from a Radio Shack interconnect to a $100 Duelund. That's a multiplier of about 50x. Who's to say the average shnook views my spending $100 on cable the same way we scoff at a $24 K one? | |
| Considering used towers under $1000.. I have a pair of new 2.1 SuperOnes, maybe I should revisit their tower options as well, thank you |
