| Recommendation for detailed/analytical bookshelf speaker? @insocFrom a logic standpoint, your strategy makes sense...BUT...just remember that as you move "up the chain" the higher versions will likely be bigger and as a result, they may or may not couple well with your room...especially if the speaker i... | |
| Bryston 4B3 or Ps Audio M700 monoblock? @benjosef1 The M700 seems to have a lot of likes... and of course it is returnable. In addition I’d suggest you take a 45 minute drive up to Allentown and visit Digital Amplifier Company as they are getting a lot of great feedback for their class ... | |

| Recommendation for detailed/analytical bookshelf speaker? I'm going to throw five speakers into the ring for consideration...which are musical and have great detail because of their tweeters...all have good forum comments and are not bright/harsh even though detailed.http://www.ascendacoustics.com/pages/... | |
| Our Responsibility @bigkidz+1I have two boys....both grew up with music, good gear and great sound. At this point, one has more money invested in guitars and guitar amps than I have in my home system. The other plays acoustic but not electric.Both....love music, h... | |

| Sound quality vs. volume @erik_squires+1No doubt that higher volume will exacerbate room reflections and other problems and that the 3' test will tell the tale....room or equipment. | |
| Speaker Break In...? Or listener “Break In”? @b_limo Im interested in opinions regarding which has more impact; a speaker changing sound over the first 100-200 hours or a listener becoming more in tune with a certain speakers qualities and characteristics. Since we all hear what we hea... | |
| What equipment upgrades or tweaks will improve the sound of drums? @udogListening to drums live, I am immediately struck by two things....that drums have both tonality and impact...and when being reproduced on home audio, if either one is missing, they will never sound like drums sound live.So, the question is, ... | |

| Crown vs Vidar Wolf... I agree... I should have just said that the Halo and the Cherry are good alternatives. I’ve heard the Vidar... but not in my system... and that is the only place that matters. | |
| Crown vs Vidar Here are a couple of alternatives to the Vidar that are in the price range.I have no doubt that the Cherry Amp is better and if you contact the company, they have a sale going on now. I own a Cherry Amp and I'm a big fan of the sound...which I de... | |
