| Help with speaker selection had the salon 1 and 2. Agree the s2 are clinical side of musical compared to usher be20dmd, Meridian DSP8000se, VA beethoven and persona 7f. I never heard the Aerial 10t so don’t know what you’re used to. A full, rich midrange while sounding more ... | |

| Speakers - Your "Safest" Choice I'd take a trip to FLA to shop $40k speakers selling for $15k, in fact I'd make it an annual event. | |
| Efficient speakers -- What was your journey from A to B to ? My old Kef R105/3 had a 93.5 rating and would play insanely (114 db in room) loud without distortion. | |
| Speaker that are 'KEEPERS" for the long haul!!! 110 replies and 90 different answers! No love for Vivid audio? Nobody mentioned Usher audio either. Genesis anybody, wtfarkle? I have a pair of KEF Blades with a pair of Mc611's driving them and yeah, they're gettin' it done. My previous was a ... | |
| Speakers - Your "Safest" Choice What I did was shopped the market to get a feel for actual value, read all the reviews of the speakers in my price range and then shopped used so I could get my money back if my ears didn't hear what everyone else did. I learned that when a revi... | |
| Have you found your "End-Game" speakers yet? I have. And it feels so good!!! stjernholm Those Dali Epikore are special and imho, better than the Kore considering how amplifier friendly they are. | |

| Why No McIntosh Recommendations? I’m late to the Mac party probably because I considered the brand snobbish. The current products I’ve heard are impressive for their price, power and sound. Not for budget shoppers, but definitely for anyone considering next level brands like krel... | |
| Has anyone actually heard the Dali Epikore 11? Impressions welcome. The way the 11's sound I agree is comparable to the Kore, but that they need less power to sound dynamic is why I'd choose the Epikore 11 over the flagship speakers If I could pick either pair as my endgame speakers. Now if they threw in a couple ... | |
| Your method for discovering great music. I love the Shazam app. I can snatch any song I hear anywhere to play at home. Sometimes I'll pick a single song to play on tidal and either roon or the tidal app, IDK will just start loading similar music after my choice ends and I have history t... | |
| Oldies that stick in your head... Anything by J Geils band Redbone-Come and get your love. Basically, if you grew up during 70's am pop get the soundtrack to the first 'Guardians of the Galaxy" movie. | |
