| Great deal on some Salks . . . Hmmmm if the Salk SS8 non Be is $9k per pair...and the SS10 is $12k per pair....then it would seem that these new speakers might actually be $5k...but $5k per speaker....but I'm pretty sure they will sound great! | |
| Stereo pre-amps with dual outs for bi-amping and a subwoofer line out And if you don’t prefer a Parasound preamp, look at their Halo poweramps that have a preamp (passthrough) output. | |
| Spatial Audio M3 Tubo S open baffle speaker review @falconquestNice write up...and I'm not surprised by your findings. I've posted this a few times but I had the chance to hear the M3s in Salt Lake at Clayton's assembly shop...which does not have a good listening area set up...and they sounded gr... | |
| A New? Way to Buy Loudspeakers?? Since they just rolled this out a week or two ago, I suspect that there will be some tweaks in the months to come. Its pretty interesting that they hired two phd engineers to develop this program...and I'm sure a bunch more to program it into the... | |

| A New? Way to Buy Loudspeakers?? I'm still thinking that if this an entry point for young people who only wear headphones...then midfi is better than nofi....and then later, they can always move up if they really get interested. | |
| A New? Way to Buy Loudspeakers?? No doubt, it won't work for serious audiophiles....but is it clever enough to entice the 20 somethings into their first audio system...from which they can move up. I'm not really sure because the young people today are often pulled or pushed in a... | |
| A New? Way to Buy Loudspeakers?? I tried it with some $20 KA ZSA dual driver earphones....and what I noticed is that you can definitely hear difference in treble and bass....but obviously not enough to make a serious evaluation as to what to purchase.Since the younger generation ... | |
| Tekton Design's new THE PERFECT SET equals "goosebumps time" Reading through lots of threads on various forums, the one thing that seems common is that when it comes to the smaller companies, those primarily selling through the internet....there is a pretty good chance that if you call the company, you will... | |

I can pay a few hundred dollars... or less and return it if I don’t like it. minimal r... | |
| What responsibility does a seller have to tell a customer an item has been serviced? If you look back at Audiogon's listing content from their "Seller's Description" it is pretty clear that Audiogon expects that the seller will provide an honest and accurate description of the unit's condition and working status. It does not requ... | |
| Expo Florida Audio Expo....further updateI should have said that the Persona system sounded good with the room correction turned on...but the low end was bloated with the room correction turned off....they just overpowered the room which was pretty sma... | |
| Expo @ twoleftears No...they were showing the S610s on Sound Anchor Stands...which really sounded good. Trevor Ryan was there and said that the S840s are pretty close to ready and that in their own test speakers, they are very, very similar to the 61... | |
