Gallo Reference 3.1 questions... Well, Im glad you liked the Gallo's. I really wanted to. I think the Legacy focus 20/20's have just spoiled me over the years. I am surprised you thought it was a world of a difference from the paradigms. I owned the studio 100v.2's years ago and ... | |
Does anyone out there NOT hear a difference in CD Well, lets be realistic. I like the high dollar stuff as much as the next guy, but were in 2008. There are plenty cheap players out there offering great sound. I personally find benifits of a good player, but they are small. Often only adding a ce... | |
Subwoofer Selection HELP ? ? ? I think you went the best route. SVS makes amazing subs. Ive owned paradigm servo 15 (stereophile a / b) the hgs 18 velodyne, the martin logan descent, and none of them sounded as good on music or movies as the svs ultra/2. I will say a sms-1 take... | |
Marantz SA 8001 vs. Cary 308T I saw a good review in stereophile for the marantz 8001, i think they compared it to a cary if I remember correctly. The 8001 was in class a for sacd, which is crazy for stereophile at only 1k. | |
Power conditioner or not? My OPINIONIve found power conditioners usefull for video, not so much audio. At least not with the top companys Ive owned in the past years.-bryston,ayre,anthem-all of which recommend no power conditioner. It did make a small improvement on my rot... | |
Anyone listened to ML Vantage? Sorry for the bad spelling, typed in a hurry. | |
Gallo Reference 3.1 questions... I thought they had a great look. Something different. I will say they seam to be made with great quality and construction. My only little gripe would be the screws that hold the giant grille on. The holes didnt seam to line up with the screw holes... | |
Anyone have Legacy speakers these days? Legacy are killer speakers. If you want to enjoy the music, buy Legacys, if you want to constantly worry about imaging, coloration, tweaking,positioning and all the other boring things out there that drive a person nuts buy other speakers, because... | |
Gallo Reference 3.1 questions... I would have agreed with the break in, but one of the pairs I bought used and they were a few years old. I thought they were better then the new pair but still just didnt do it for me. As I mentioned, I just tend to like big speakers that throw bi... | |
Anyone listened to ML Vantage? The spire looks nice. I just think the price/performance ratio of the martin logans has gotten worse with every model. Think about it the requests were the same or less the the ascents, the ascents less then the vantage. Its hard to truely say ml ... | |
Gallo Reference 3.1 questions... I purchased 2 pair of gallo 3.1's. First speakers Ive sold within 2 months of buying. What a disapointment. They wouldnt be bad for a office, but just dont cut it in a med to large room for me. I didnt find the tweeter as smooth as others, maybe I... | |
Anyone listened to ML Vantage? I personally think panel size does matter. The reason I used to love my magenpans and ascent's had alot to do with the wall of a sound they threw. If tradition speakers could match this wall of sound and keep the benifits of dynamics, etc, nobody ... | |
Speaker Preferences? I cant wait to hear it(clx). Maybe it will be a fiture purchase :) | |
Legacy Focus 20/20 Speaker amp My ayre v-5xe is 300 watts into 4 ohms, but most good 150 watt amps will do near this. I would agree the bass sounds softer a LITTLE with my ayre then my bryston, but Im not sure thats a matter of power. Brystons are known for bass/midrange, and a... | |
Silverline Sonata III or Legacy Focus 20/20? I thought that was a little funny also. I only posted my comment for furture readers trying to find info on the focus 20/20's. I often go through all old threads and read up on a product Im interested in buying and seeing the responses and feedbac... |
