| New Construction Acoustic Design & Consulting Now there's a consultant worth interviewing!!Good points, Soundprogression.-IMO | |
| New Construction Acoustic Design & Consulting Cinematic, my experience tells me that there are far fewer professionals in this industry that really know what good sound is and how it can be achieved than even I'd care to admit. Whereas you seem to believe that the majority of 'professionals' ... | |
| New Construction Acoustic Design & Consulting Cinematic, just to get an idea where you are coming from, what percentage of enthusiasts and professionals do you suppose have truly superior sounding systems?As for the 'luck' that you flippantly impose on my supposed achievments. Save the the lu... | |
| Harmonic Technology vs. Audioquest Cheetah As one who previously owned both the HT PS MKII and Magic Link One's, I'd highly recommend you consider the Audience Au24 XLRs. New or used, the Au24s should be in the same or similar price range and may provide substantial sonic gains for you as ... | |
| New Construction Acoustic Design & Consulting Or you can use a little common sense. There are no guarantees whatsover that hiring a professional consultant will do a better job than you. In fact, if your would-be consultant can not demonstrate for you a real system/room combination that s/he ... | |
| How does Red Rose compare to older Levinson stuff? My one and only experience with Red Rose was about 20 months ago. Regarding your first question, I have no idea. However, as I was driving thru Kansas, I stopped in at Acoustic Sounds in Salina, KS. In the owner's office was a nice little Red Rose... | |
| New Construction Acoustic Design & Consulting I would prefer the 13 x 21 x 8 ft dimensions.A lot of the points you mention above are good and definitively should be considered in the new room.Assuming that the room is built well with all the basic elements(many of which you already mention), ... | |
| Best Speaker Placement Rules you've used? Kerry, I've gotten a bit of mileage from the Allison rule as described in TAS issue 127.There the author describes the rule as follows:"The distance from woofer to floor, side wall, and back wall should be as different from each other as possible ... | |
| Where has the respect gone? Oh, hi, Sean. Attacking (is not how I put it). I intentionally and specifically used the words destroy and destruction. I'm not sure who you asked to 'let by-gones be by-gones'.But if you've turned over a new leaf then I say congratulations, time ... | |
| FPB 300 vs 600 - Incremental or Fundamental? Zuraid, I too am an owner of the 10Ts. Of course everybody has different tastes.Anyway, there was a review about 6 years ago by Peter Moncrief that placed the McCormack DNA-2 LAE(limited anniversary edition) amp head and shoulders over every other... | |
| Shunyata vs Richard Gray Power Co vs Chang??? Encyclopediabsh, I don't believe the LCs are meant to do anything with power surges. I believe that would be the job of a power regenerator or some function like that.But I can assure you that if you were very pleased with the results of the old v... | |
| Shunyata vs Richard Gray Power Co vs Chang??? You might consider the Foundation Research LC-1 and LC-2 passive and dedicated in-line power conditioners.In the Aug. 2003 issue of Bound for Sound, Marty DeWulf called these simply the best that he's aware of and he's been a stickler for line con... | |
| Where has the respect gone? Lousyreeds1, I have to agree with Sbank. So long as it's an isolated incident. However, like, Sbank, I too know of one whom I consider to be nothing more than an opportunist (when he's not Mother Theresa and he's not Ralph Nader) who is always on ... | |
| Re-Cabling system Need advice Nik, that's why I mentioned 'used'. If you check here on A'gon for used AU24 cables, you should notice that you could come close to the $1000 budget that you've established.On the other hand, I now notice that you require 3m XLR lengths. Regardles... | |
| Re-Cabling system Need advice As a previous owner of Harmonic Tech cables (pro 9's, pro-silway II's, and Magic Link 1's), you should experience dramatic increases everywhere by upgrading to Audience Au24 speaker cables and ics. Particularly in the bass regions as the Au24s abs... |
