Removing components from between the speakers Hi all. In typical net pattern, responses have ranged from helpful to snarky, extending to rejecting, spurious to critical. And, also in a familiar pattern, along the way my original question was blunted and redefined. But I'm quite appreciative o... | |
Removing components from between the speakers Good responses all. My monitors are pulled forward of the salamander rack. A good 12" forward. So maybe it wouldn't make that much difference, other than putting the tt (a good, heavy VPI) on a more stable platform. | |
LSA the gem of a good system When I got the Statement back after Mr. Tucker upgraded it, I rolled the 6922's out and replaced them with Amperex 7308 gold pins ($109/tube) from Upscale Audio. It definitely widened the sound and gave it more presence. I wonder if the 6DJ8's wou... | |
LSA the gem of a good system Larry - how much of a difference would rolling the pre-tubes make? | |
Reference 3A De Capo BE Review And here's another slightly off-topic question. Should I hold onto my old tweeters from my de Capos that I have left over from when I installed the beryllium tweeters? Should I try to sell them?What have others done with them? | |
Sold in one day Phd - I agree. When I sold off my first system back in 2003 during a divorce, everything sold quickly - Maggies, ARC's, Musical Fidelity, Blue Circle - everything. Granted, I was living in the Baltimore/DC area and so the population (and money) wa... | |

Bookshelf Speakers with the decent bass Can we stop ankle biting and address the OP's questions? Seriously. I hate it when people hijack a thread for their own aural-ideological differences. | |
Trenner & Friedle ART/Ella or Devore 9 or O/93? Bump. Thank you to those who've responded. Any other Devore or TF owners who can weigh in on their speakers' sounds and personality? | |
Bookshelf Speakers with the decent bass Reference 3A de Capo's. All the tight bass you'll ever need. Those or a good pair of Dynaudio 1.4 | |
what speakers That's what I did. I fell in love with the ARC VS-110 and then tried a few pairs with it before discovering the synergy of the pairing with Maggie's. | |
Trenner & Friedle ART/Ella or Devore 9 or O/93? Hi. Actually, any feedback about either brand would be appreciated. | |
what speakers Reference 3A Grand Veenas mate well with the ARC, as do Magnepan 3.7's. | |
Sub suggestions Thanks for clarification, Willland. SB1000 ordered today. Thank you all for helping me along with this. i've had my old Velodyne for 15 years now. i feel like im having an audio component divorce. | |
Sub suggestions Yes; music would be 95% of my listening. HT almost nothing. Again, ported or sealed? |
