KRK ERGO
my level matching comment was directed at Bob_reynolds. Regardless, it's puzzling why it measured the way it did. No idea. I did contact them (never got a reply) but when the software glitched out after hitting Cancel during a test (subsequent tes... 
Best 3 tube preamps under $18000?
Jesus, $18k on anything better sound good. 
KRK ERGO
The Ergo asks for multiple mic placements after the focus position. It did not ask for specific mic placements -- in fact it specified to get very general with mic placements to emulate real world listening from a global standpoint. Different posi... 
KRK ERGO
I haven't measured my room -- that would be the hard way. I was hoping the KRK would just do its thing. The room suffers primarily from a lot of reflective surfaces and open area creating slap echo. Addtionally I have vaulted ceilings that go to 1... 
KRK ERGO
I just returned mine. I tried it on a whim -- easy to find from the big name online music stores w/return policy. I was excited at the notion of room correction utilizing the famous Lyngdorf Room perfect technology for $500, and hoping for distinc... 
Odyssey Tempest pre-amp any good?
I'd like to revisit it sometime. It was one of my first preamps (a steal at around $400 used) and it sounded thin and sterile to me. I ran it with a SS multi-channel amp at the time, perhaps a bad match spec-wise, not sure.I'm sure pairing it with... 
what's better than a milk crate? lol
There were some cool DIY stands made by a reviewer on 6 moons, can't remember what they were called. They were made from Ikea parts -- legs were from a stool I believe, and platform was a square cutting board. They were holding up a pair of Mark &...

Tube matching: 30 hours vs 0
Jim, I think that's the shortest response I've ever read from you! Yeah, thanks for the responses guys. Figured it would be ok. Cheers.. 
How to tell the difference between two cables ?
Man, by the title i thought this thread would be more general, and therefore, interesting. At least the OP found his answer. Like the joke says, after exhausting every conceivable way to tell the 2 horses apart, they found that the black one was 2...
