Can You Hear Me Now
Go to a concert to hear an artist three nights in a row and you will undoubtedly have a favorite of the three.  Now go and listen to the same artist and three different venues and again you will have a favorite.Same artist every time...which was t... 
My Experience With Tekton
Back to the Grills!Jason from 2 channel audio said in his review of he Uruz on June 26th that he had ordered the speakers on Feb 22nd...which he received late June, but without the grills.  He said he then called Tekton and they said that with the... 
Ohm Speakers and Services prices to increase September 1st
It may hurt new sales but it should certainly help preowned sales! 
My Experience With Tekton
I suspect that Tekton elicits responses positive and negative (which results in a certain amount of defensiveness) because of things that have happened over the years.  Back in 2013 they had a big hit on their hands with the Lores and ended up wit... 
Subwoofer adjustment for each recording
Does the statement "seems too strong" mean you don't actually enjoy the stronger bass on these recordings....or....you enjoy it but don't know if you are supposed to enjoy it?For my two cents, the system/tuning/music should always be to what sound... 
And Now, For All You Omni Fanatics
Doug,  thanks for this review.  On one hand, Ohm doesn't get much coverage and the coverage it does get often leaves the reader with unanswered questions.  On the other hand, they've been around for 50 years which says a lot about their products a... 
What traditional dynamic speakers deliver a sonic signature similar to a horn speaker?
How about Volti… the Razz for example.  
Considering the Parasound A23+ amplifier
Personally, I found the A23 (didn't own the A23+) to be dull...as though listening through a blanket.  Another member here, Whitextix, has both a Don Sachs preamp and power amp...and just purchased a Purifi as a "run cooler" option for the summer.... 
Carver M 1.5t
There is some older gear that makes sense to consider because of the reputation of the gear or the designer...but that doesn't apply to the Carver...it was trend setting in its time and it sounded decent...but $500 is too much...maybe at $250 I'd ... 
Carver M 1.5t
The M1.5 @ $500 in is the ballpark of what hifi shark says they have sold for...BUT....why buy a potential problem (10 years old) when you can spend less and get a brand new amplifier that will sound as good and probably better, easy resale if you... 
Raven celeste competitors/alternatives
I heard the Raven Celest at the 2020 Florida Audio Show...not sure which Raven amp they were driven by....the show rooms are not great rooms...maybe 15x25....speakers set up on the long wall, seating position maybe 9’ back....they were not polite ... 
Recommendations for a modestly-priced audio system?
Here is what Crutchfield says about the remote: Use a universal remote controlAn RF (radio frequency) remote can be used to control components that are out of the line of sight of typical IR (infrared) remotes. RF signals can pass through walls a... 
My NAD 3020 D proves your Class D tropes are wrong
I’ve never had a warm up issue with my 2Cherry...sounds the same if it’s been off for 2 weeks or on for 2 hours.  
My NAD 3020 D proves your Class D tropes are wrong
If you really believe class d can’t sound good... there are a lot of cherryamp owners that have owned other amps and would disagree. As for one approach to the technology and how to extract good sound... this is an interesting read. https://positi... 
Recommendations for a modestly-priced audio system?
Since the mini Lores are pretty high sensitivity, you don't need much power to get them going....so, here is another option that is well reviewed, has a remote, blue tooth connectivity, phono connectivity, and more....total price of speakers and i...
