Upgrade to my system - Speakers maybe Sorry, can’t say anything about the AVM components. The reason I brought up the hegel was because of the profound effect they had on some older revel’s I owned, though if you had an opportunity to demo one with your existing speakers you might dec... | |
Upgrade to my system - Speakers maybe Those look like very well made speakers. congrats. | |
Upgrade to my system - Speakers maybe I was referring to the recommendation for the A3 on ag the previous post mentions, If you consider them look at the pics closely. | |
Looking for new speakers $10-$15k is enough money to get anything you want and the good thing about buying used is you can resell if they don't workout. I usually just tell people to go up the line in the same brand they already have since thats the sound that will probab... | |
Upgrade to my system - Speakers maybe did you see the damage? | |
~$15K floorstanders: opinions sought The coax tannoys? I listened to a pair, I think a single 8 or 10'' woofer and the mids sound really colored when out of the sweet spot. Listening chair, sure, great speakers, but walk around the room and not so much. | |
What do/did you do for a living? 60 yo Carpenter startin' to feel like I'm 90. Young mans game. | |
Upgrade to my system - Speakers maybe It's like asking which condiments to put on your hot dog. Local dealers usually will allow home demos of display and used equipment if you have the means to collect...Revel products that I've owned in the past were quite vulnerable to amplifier ch... | |

Vienna Acoustics 'The Music' my coax kef R105/3 baked a tweeter when the wires inside my antique RGR amp shorted and the design with those was a hole in the center of the mid magnet and a stem soldered to the back of the tweeter which was about the size of 4 quarters stacked.... | |
Vienna Acoustics 'The Music' $2100 for a tweeter is unacceptable. VA is proud to say they have their tweeters made for them and even giving them 50% markup after getting the ScanSpeak/visa/seas unit there’s no way it should cost that much. Sometimes you can figure out which t... | |
Lots of bass at walls, lack of bass in center of room/listening position These are the ns 5000? Excellent choice. I really appreciate what Eric is suggesting. I have a 6’x8’ piece of carpet hanging on the sidewall of my listening room, it helps. One day I may replace it with vicoustics or another brand, but it showed m... | |
Paradigm Persona 3F Owners Bump, did you buy them? Details like room size, spacing, amplifier, umm, break in, sub(s). Satisfied? | |
Recommend speakers for Hegel H190 The H190 is great and any decent speaker that doesn’t need 400 wpc should sound better by association. Hegel doesn’t spend all your money on shiny faceplates they deliver the sound as good as any, | |
Paradigm Persona: what do you think? Not cheap, but a lot for the money |
