| floor speakers upgrade Agree with above posts. At least Tekton offers a 60-day trial period, although you'll probably be out some shipping dollars if you return them. The mini Lore and Lore Reference are in your basic price range and may be worth a look. Another choice,... | |
| Quality Power Cord Pretty much universal praise for Triode Wire Labs in this forum, and they offer a nice in-home trial period. Best of luck. | |
| B&W 703 front and HTM7center low end speakers ?? Avgoround, I was referencing the original post, not yours. Sorry for the confusion. | |
| B&W 703 front and HTM7center low end speakers ?? A while back a buddy of mine had a B&W Matrix HTM center, and although I'm not really a B&W fan I thought it excelled as a center speaker. I think at least some of it had to do with the tweeter being positioned directly above a single mid ... | |
| Free $3K preamp to lucky listener who names it Interesting sticking with the "Rh" theme. Personally I think Rhyme would've been better, but sounds like a promising product and best of luck with it. | |
| Recommend A More Dynamic Monitor Than Harbeth C7 Yeah, ATC may well be your boy, and your amps probably have the juice to drive them. In addition to more snap you'll likely notice much more dynamic impact and force to the sound that captures more of what you're probably sensing when you play. Gr... | |
| What are my preamp choices? Yikes. Nice catch George. Does that strike anyone as odd? HK must really like their preamp section. | |
| Any thoughts on passive v. active speakers? You've got a really nice amp you seem to like, and although going active has some practical and potentially sonic benefits you'd really be limiting your choices. Lots of great speakers you could pair your amp with, and I'll throw Joseph Audio, Ref... | |
| Modular Room-w/in-a Room HT? Think's a good idea? Thanks Ptss. I actually ran across that site a couple years ago when I was researching this so I'm familiar with the product. Looks like a good product, but I'm not sure what it gets you over just bonding two sheets of drywall together with Green ... | |
| Best loudspeaker with coincident/coaxial driver Man, maybe you have high ceilings or something, but it sure seems like you're trying to cram a lot of speaker into that room. Given the bass capabilities of today's better monitors and their usually better ability to be coherent in the near field,... | |
| Best Used Phono preamp around $2500 In a prior thread there was someone who compared the Allnic 1201 to the Chinook they much preferred the 1201. Maybe they'll chime in here, but just FWIW. | |
| Class D Amps Cable matter?? When you swap your Silverstring interconnects between left and right, does the buzz move to the right or does it stay on the left? Wasn't clear if you did that or not. Also, have you swapped your speakers from left to right? If the buzz moves to t... | |
| Modular Room-w/in-a Room HT? Think's a good idea? "Keep in mind I am aware that even simplly isolating w RESILLIENT won't help keep bass in or out very effectively! Only wall thickness depth and mixed with mass barier is only way there. SPRUNG walls only really help mid and high frequencies used ... | |
| Class D Amps Cable matter?? Just because interconnects so rarely just start acting up, have you tried cleaning the connections on your amp and pre, or just swapping the interconnects? Worth a shot to possibly save some $, and many report improvements in their system's sound ... | |
| Modular Room-w/in-a Room HT? Think's a good idea? Avgoround, just for my own information in case I redo my basement in the near future (more for better sound than isolation, although isolation would be nice too), what things did you do wrong? Thinking there's a good chance I'd make at least some ... |
