| Anyone in Vegas listen to the Gilmore speakers??? TireguyAre you trying to say the speakers sounded dead as in Ron Jeremy being dead. He may have died with a smile on his face. Although what he died from isn't pretty. | |
| Vandersteen-like "In-between" speakers You could try www.tyleracoustics.home.mindspring.comYou will find a model or two in the $4-$6k range. And I would venture to say they do a better/musical sound than the 'steens. I've owned the 3's and sold them 'cause after I got them home and set... | |
| Are Sub-woofers really for music? Read the article at 'Audioperpectionist'. It will disspell many of the myths you will hear.If someone tells you they ruin the music then that person either bought junk to begin with or didn't know or didn't take the amount of effort it takes to in... | |
| Audio Experience gear direct from factory Does it have a remote? Cause I'm sure not gonna get up just to chage the volume like I did 10 years ago. | |
| what's the best pre amp Doesn't the Cary have 'variable' output on it. Seems like many of the Cary's do. Unless you have others sources to hook up, I'd go right into the amp from the cd player, as long as it has enough voltage output. | |
| 2 ch HT/music...hope to hear from the 2 ch purists Just a suggestion. Try the speakers with the Denon and a better amp before you spend a wad on an amp. At your Dads age he may not, may not, but he may, hear no difference in the two.Funny how age srcews up your hearing.I say this because my Dad ca... | |
| Any small monitors that dont sound thin and bright Are you a music lover or an audiophile? If your a music lover you'll most likely love any of the Spendor's.If an audiophile, you'll most likely hate the Spendor line.There strong points don't lie in the false soundstage/imaging of audiophile speak... | |
| Where oh where do I place my speakers You can't use the 'front effects' channels of the RX-Z1 for 'side effects'. It will mess everything up.The 'front effects' are using info from the front mains.Basically it is ambient info. Thats how it was explained to me. Which seems logical. | |
| Apogee Mini Grand Questions Prior to the availability of the subs the 'Stage' was recommended as a class 'B' rating. I believe it was Thomas Norton who wrote the original review. In his words the "midband was as natural as I've heard", I believe were his words.The 'Stage' im... | |
| My wife says yes Help what to upgrade next? Well, I wouldn't be upgrading the wife, for sure. | |
| Non fatigueing speaker under 1500 I'd say your on the right path for a non fatigueing speaker. I will say that there is simply no way the Maggies can be considered non fatigueing. I've had Maggies in the $1000-$1500 range in and out for at least 12 yrs. and I've never found them t... | |
| AV receiver for 4 ohm speakers? I will say this, although I've had people tell me I was ABSOLUTELY NUTS, that it wasn't possible.Back around '93 or '94 I ran into some money problems and needed to sell a couple amps. In the meantime, till the money problems were straightened out... | |
| Prepro or receiver with Paradigm Active speakers? I have the RXV1 and can say if you don't need all the channels of amplification I'd go with something where your money is going more to the processing. But, if you are getting it for 11 or 12 hundred $ it might be the way to go.I paid $1200 for a ... | |
| The triangle Celius 202 speaker In the last 4 months I've been looking for a replacement for my Apogee Stages, that wouldn't get into silly money.What I've found so far from auditioning B&W 803,4,5's,Revel F30, M20's, Sonus Faber models and the Paradigm Studio 100's, which a... | |
| Speakers Needed: Audiophile Taste - Low Budget Although more than you'd like to spend, the Meadowlark 'Swift' at a $1000/pair would be a great combo with the Sony.Meadowlark also makes a bookshelf speaker, the 'Swallow' which is the Swift with less low end, for $800. But, then you buy stands a... |
