| "will ship at buyer's risk and expense" My take on those adds:1. The seller does not advise shipping...WARNING2. If you want it bad enough to skip the warning then fine...I'm interested in the money and will let you take your chances.3. Don't expect your money back from my pocket should... | |
| DVD Player.....I am stumped..... Did you set it's outputs to bitstream? Is the chirp DD and DTS or only DTS? Also, you do know that SACD is only analog output don't you?Sorry if my questions are somewhat simple...but thats a lot of bad dvd players.Dave | |
| First Order Crossovers: Pros and Cons Ahhh, but it would seem you do have the phase chops for this Drubin...coherency (is that how it's spelled?) is what we are all after and why some turn to single driver systems...they can hear the X-over.Dave | |
| Would you buy speakers with out first listening ? You know Trelja...I think you would be OK with that move as long as you had a fairly large room.That said...I had my Apogee Centaur Minors (still do) a good while before I bought my Duetta Signatures..Took over a year to find a pair close enough f... | |
| how do you determine what to upgrade next? Go down to Home Depot or the likes and pickup some insulation rolls (comes rolled up and in plastic wrap...do not open). Stack about 3 rolls in each corner...I think your bass will take-on a new sound in your small/square room.You can make um pret... | |
| Would you buy speakers with out first listening ? Interesting that some of the speakers mentioned are of the work-horse variety, ie..give up a little to gain a lot. These are the types I tend to go with as my choices in speakers for the last couple of pairs.My question came about after reading so... | |
| Would you buy speakers with out first listening ? Hummm, I'm a little suprised so far that no one has been "let down" to any degree, I am thinking that the discription we use at these forums in regards to sound, ie...dark, bright, laid-back, forward...ect...must be a fairly good meter that one ca... | |
| how do you determine what to upgrade next? It's been my experience that my pre-amp (Audioprism Mantissa) has had a greater effect on sound quality than changing between my 4 amps.This is just my opinion but unless something is mis-matched in the system the speakers and pre-amp do seem to h... | |
| Help / Comments - New Construction - Sort of... What is the idea behind the extra sheetrock? Are you going to have a gap between the layers with insulation? It would seem to me that making the wall more stiff (cement like) would reduce flex and redirect bass freq's back into the room?Are you th... | |
| BEST 90's Audio Gear that holds its own today. I agree with Onhwy61...pretty much everything should still hold it's own, maybe even some of the digital stuff?I own some 90's gear so will mention those:Krell Ksa-250/AmpApogee Duetta Signatures/SpeakersAudioprism Mantissa/Tubed pre-amp Dave | |
| Jungson or DK Design: good with Quad 989's? I don't know about the Quad speakers but I did get an e-mail a few months back from a Maggie 1.6 owner.He was wondering if I could give any advice on a pair of used Apogee Duetta Signatures he had found for sale and wanted as a replacement for his... | |
| King of the Hill Reminds me of this post I read at the Apogee forum the other day:Tiny TimI just read this post. Owning the VMPS RM30 i do not understand how someone would take this over a Apogee big Maggie, Soundlab etc.. quote:I have 626R w/ Auricaps, matched to... | |
| Equipment that has made you 'stop' looking? Shimmery highs, mid-range to die for...devastatingly good bass, only a cd player upgrade and Behringer DCX-2496 in my future.Dave | |
| Help with room treatments You do have a few things going for you that many do not, your room is large and your speakers are well away from the corners. As Rob mentioned...you are listening at a fairly close distance also. On top of that...your ceiling is a non-mirror of yo... | |
