Let go of the music " Releasing " the music is a factor of the speaker design. Two properties come to mind. The easy one in my mind is " a large and complex crossover " in a speaker eliminate that possibility. Crossovers do not add music they subtract. | |
Let go of the music bjesienYou might think that more stiffening is the reason for quick release of the notes..I am not so sure. you would probably agree that electrostatic speakers let the music go quickly. Smaller speakers also do that. They seem to be more spaciou... | |
Pop/crackle in one speaker at only low frequencies in the tweeter Obviously I can only guess but here it is. You have a loose wire in there. It may not be a tweeter wire at all. Open it up and take a look and add foam around the wires and make sure they are isolated..good luck | |

Best speaker cable for Focal Sopra 3 It really depends on whether you are working to correct something about the sound that you do not like. If you love the sound then I strongly recommend Kubala Sosna cables. I believe the represent a baseline from which you can judge equipment by. ... | |
My hearing deficits are becoming clear... whitestixIf you think you have hearing deficiencies then you should consider becoming a reviewer. You would fit right in. | |
Speaker upgrade for classical music Gestaltt hi fi has some very fine brands. the Stenheim Alumine two would be worth listening. Just no hype. soft dome tweeter Great efficiency so late you could upgrade to a sweet tube amp. Don't be fooled by the fact that it is a stand mounted sp... | |
Devore Fidelity Orangutan O/96 jjss49 Give John Devore a call and ask him if he could rename at least one pair of speakers just for you....I think the name " jjss49" sounds good. Or perhaps the jjss49 Experimental might even sell better...lol |
