| How to connect a subwoofer to the MF M6i? I run 2 RELs from my Musical Fidelity M3, it has 2 sets of terminals but I sometimes use only one the way Telescope described. | |
| B&W suggestions - N803 vs. 804S I remember HIFI News or HiFi Choice recommending the two and a half way speaker over the bigger one but can't remember the generation involved, I'll try to find it. | |
| VPI SDS question See this thread: VPI Single Motor Flywheel / SDS / Aries 3So apparently the problem, if one exists, is not related/confined to the Classic. | |
| Suspended vs. non-suspended turntables I noticed a difference when I switched from suspended to non-suspended but tables are complex systems and hard to generalize about. | |
| VPI SDS question No, mine does that and I use it with the Aries with Single Motor Flywheel as well as Scoutmaster and Scout with standard motors. I have no idea why it does this but others have noticed it and it was discussed on a recent thread. | |
| HRS Isolation Voodoo, anyone experienced this? Undoubtably quantum entanglement; some of the particles of the platform became entangled with those of the CD player and they are still exerting an influence although physically separated. See "SPOOKY ACTION AT A DISTANCE" for further explanation. | |
| What's the best system in the world? Infinity was top dog only in Arnie Nudell's mind, I never cared for them. The real reference system is live music, try to find the system that sounds the most like it. There is no one system that does everything the best or sounds the best to ever... | |
| Subwoofer reccomendations for B&W 805S? Here is a good one, there are also 2 Stadium 2 subs for $2000 which is a very good deal if it is in your price range. You can buy one wad look for another at your leisure. Search Buy Sell Learn MyPage Home > Buy > HT: Subwoofers > Item: 1... | |
| Subwoofer reccomendations for B&W 805S? Not all subs are created equal, two good ones would be more than enough. I spent 11 months in DC some years ago, the system I took was the 805's with the 2 Hsu 10" subs, sounded quite good. I ran the 805's full range, they were intended to be used... | |
| Subwoofer reccomendations for B&W 805S? Totally disagree, modern film is sound effects plain and simple. My HT set up is quite satisfactory for BLue Ray etc but I would never tolerate it for music. I have at least 6 pairs of speakers sitting around that are better than the ones I use fo... | |
| Other than music, why are you an audiophile? You omitted that they can be considerably less than the sum of their parts if you aren't careful. I have been assembling audio systems and selling them since graduate school, first unofficially and then as a factory dealer. I do it because it is a... | |
| Amp switcher Yes, any device you insert in the signal line will degrade the sound. The degree of degradation and your tolerance for it is unpredictable. | |
| Spendor Classic 9/1 Speaker AMP Suggestions I use 300 watts with my SP-1s with no problem, too little power destroys speakers, very seldom too much. Have used Spendors for 40 years but very seldom with tubes and with none that are now available. Having said that I regularly listen to a frie... | |
| Subwoofer reccomendations for B&W 805S? I meant I believe they will work well in your new room, I have used my 805s in fairly large rooms and they were fine. | |
| Subwoofer reccomendations for B&W 805S? Yes, I believe so. I use Spendor SP-1s with my 2 Stadium subs most of the time in a 13'x35' room with a Cardas set up on the short wall. I play them quite loud at times with a 300 wpc amp. I run my main speakers full range, if you use the REL cros... |
