| I am Looking for That Elusive 3 Dimensional Room Filling Soundstage @kenjit I thought the same thing... nope, wired in phase... but tons of ambience probably caused by all the reflections off the hard walls, ceilings and floors.... so pinpoint imaging isn’t the greatest but soundstage is pretty impressive. | |
| I am Looking for That Elusive 3 Dimensional Room Filling Soundstage I've got a buddy who has 25 year old M&K bookshelf speakers which he runs full range; he also uses an M&K 12" sub to augment the bottom. His electronics are 25 year old Adcom fed by an Oppo 103 player in a 12x14 room with drywall and hard... | |
| Open Baffle vs Box audiosaurusrex I think there is one more aspect of the new Spatial M3 that you will only know for sure by trying them at home....that is the saphire (ceramic) mid/tweet driver. (from the Spatial Audio page on Audio Circle..." new wideband, large... | |
| Need Salk/Legacy speaker help/opinions These are two great speakers from two great designers with beautifully finished cabinets....I'm thinking you might consider the following questions on your journey....1. What are your current Legacy models lacking...or what is it you are trying t... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? The one thing you learn over time is that all loudspeakers have pluses, minuses and trade offs. It seems that John has designed a speaker that meets what his ear tells him sounds "right"....and it would seem that tens of thousands of people agree... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Given the Ohm website price of $1400 for parts...not including refinishing the cabinets...and then probably $500 of packing and shipping to and from Ohm.....it seems overall that a new pair of 2000s might be equally good...so maybe it comes down t... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Thanks guys....so how do you guys feel about putting a pair of the 2000s in a really big room with a 15" sealed sub to fill in the bottom end....vs buying a pair of 4000s, 5000s, or the sound cylinder....assume listening at 80db with 85db peaks 15... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? @mapman Thanks for all of the comparisons. I have to ask about what "laid back" means to you and what you are hearing?I would probably say that for me, "laid back" suggests that the high mids and treble may be down a few db thereby giving two imp... | |
| Speaker Imaging - Do you hear a line, or do you hear an arc?? First...THANKS Eric....for so darn many thought provoking threads that you have started!I agree with the hemisphere/half bubble description. No doubt that often the slightest change in speaker positioning will affect the overall sound...sometimes... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? @mapman So my question to those of you that own one of the models would be about the high end..... If the crossover is really in the 6-8k range, then I would say that the Walsh driver is carrying most of the load for the midrange and top end exce... | |
| Speaker Imaging - Do you hear a line, or do you hear an arc?? I have a pretty big room....10' ceilings....12,000 cubic feet. Speakers are Salk Veracity STs...9' apart and 30" out from the rear wall. No room treatments...lots of glass, ceramic tile, and drywall...with a few area rugs and furniture....normal... | |
| Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? Interesting review and comparison to the Magnepan LRS by Steve Guttenberg....bottom line, while not perfect, he loved the ohm walsh 2000https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pV1EOFzcu9M | |
| Two Thumbs Up For SALK and the Veracity ST MPI've only heard the Devore Super 9s....in a show type environment...and they sounded really good...but almost impossible to draw a fair comparison with my Veracity STs.I've had the Salks now for five months and I can only say that they continue ... | |
| Ascend towers with Raal owners I suspect the best opportunity for you to read about and connect with people that own or have heard the Ascend products with the RAAL are on AVS...here are a couple links...and you can search for more. Needless to say, you will find fans and detr... | |
| Options on Belles / Belles Aria? I’ve had a Belles 22a tube hybrid preamp for 18 months.. excellent sound in every respect and when you open it up... beautifully laid out on the inside. Attention to craftsmanship is obvious. |
