| Buying Used Speakers Just as an example… if you were looking at speakers on USAM from a seller who has numerous positive ratings and has sold speakers… you can be pretty confident you are dealing with a seller who will do everything possible to give a fair rating and ... | |
| FAKE NEWS - NEGATIVE REVIEWS NOT ALLOWED!! If every time we read a review our brains could remind us that is an opinion or a preference and not an absolute truth…we may then react better to what we read… positive or negative. If I reviewed my buddy’s system, it wouldn’t rank as high as... | |
| what's a good Gan / Class D option under 3k? Nilai or Ncorex500? You can try the orchard by joining the amp tour they currently are running. https://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/orchard-audio-starkrimson-stereo-ultra-amp-tour.1148415/page-40 | |
| My experience with The Music Room Two questions… Was there a less expensive option than $800? Did you also have to pay sales tax? | |
| Any normal size speakers that sound like Volti I suspect that the new Volti Lucera which are a lot smaller might very well fit the bill. | |
| Magnepan LRS+ which amps do you use ? * 100 watts or less ** The Pass XA25 drives the LRS+ beautifully and plenty loud. Next up, I’m going to try the AHB2… just for the heck of it… and it’s 100 watts. | |
| Gallium Nitride GaN Class D Amplifiers I've had the Orchard in my system twice..for a week each and it is a great sounding amp...but as we all know, it ultimately comes down to personal preference. Fortunately, the amp is on tour and if you join the tour, you can try the amp for a wee... | |
| Volti does it again! And...if he can't/won't/doesn't...just remember that many manufacturers are increasingly reluctant to put people together unless they really know both parties pretty well...and it's hard not to blame them in this time of increased "tension" betwee... | |

| Battle of the Open Baffles Here is another option for $6k: : https://pureaudioproject.com/trio10-heil-amt-open-baffle-speakers/ Or maybe this one: https://josephcrowe.com/products/open-baffle-speaker-no-1695 | |
| Volti does it again! I don't think that Volti is taking a harsh or unreasonable position in that I don't really know, how on a practical basis, when you are making more or less one off custom made products you can have a return policy. I guess, in theory, he could ha... | |
| Volti does it again! The Lucera sounded fantastic…incredibly lifelike presentation without the need for insane volume. Since all of Greg’s speakers are custom built to order… why should they be returnable? And given their weight and the cost of return shipping, w... | |
| Orchard Audio Starkrimson Stereo Ultra The Stereo Ultra has been on tour…. You can read the reviews of those who have tried it here…. https://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/orchard-audio-starkrimson-stereo-ultra-amp-tour.1148415/page-37 | |
| Do You Buy Speakers Without Hearing Them? Yes, 3 of the last 5 pairs of speakers I purchased were without hearing them first. | |
| Rogue Audio hard to resell, has it fallen out of favor ? My 2 cents… I did not view this a disguised ad… it’s a legitimate concern…even Benchmark sales prices and timing have taken a hit….and there is definitely a lot more completion with more and more people wanting to at least try a Purifi, Hypex or G... |
