| Anyone Remember the B&W DM3000s? "Now I'm in the market for something new and different, and I am sure there are many speakers on the market that will crush those good old B&W's."I don't know if "crush" is the right word. The S800's are better, but they do not "crush" the DM3... | |
| Anyone Remember the B&W DM3000s? I was a die hard Klipsch fan (hence my user name here) and always heard memebrs on the Klipsch Forum bashing B&W's. I had never heard B&W's but figured they must be good if everyone felt that they had to bash them. A pair of used B&W's... | |

| In case you haven't seen the new Maggie? I saw them at The SHOW too. They did strain on some of the music that was played. This is what I found interesting. I was in the front row and saw the clip indicators on the Bryston 28B 1000 wpc monoblocks light up. I used to have Bryston 7B St mo... | |
| It is 5 AM, Do you Know where Mikey Fremer is? Cleaning vinyl is the bane of our existance. But you gotta do what you gotta do.I use a Perfection steam claner and listen while I clean. I usually do two to three hours and get a lot of listening in whice I clean. Its fun if you have a Corona or ... | |
| Flash report from 2009 T.H.E. Show The Teresonics were awesome speakers. I was considering buying teh floor samples but they all sold, including the back ups. I enjoyed teh Show and will go again in the morning, but CES last year at the Pallatzo (or however it was spelled) just did... | |
| Who makes a 4-way speaker besides Revel? Lynne,If you are capable of replacing the foams on a woofer you should have no problems replacing capacitors. It is very easy to do. I use Clarity Caps. Their SA and PX Series are both very reasonable for their performance. Check out this site:htt... | |
| B&W 803S Speakers No experience with the 683 but I listened to the 805S in a small room without a sub and it did not seem to need a sub. Very high quality speaker. You may want to listen to the Quad and Revel offerings in that size for the room that you describe. | |
| What is the best MM or Hi Output MC cart for $250? JonnyB,"I used and enjoyed the DL-160 for the better part of a year. When I upgraded, I got an AT150MLX. It's true that the DL-160 is a great cartridge for the asking price of $180. It's smooth, detailed for the price, brings out significant frequ... | |
| What is the best MM or Hi Output MC cart for $250? I see you have a Rega Table. I am listening to a Denon DL 160 on a Rega P9 with RB1000 arm right now. It sounds great. The cart comes with an auxilary weight to add weight to the head of the arm. You need to use it with the Rega arm. Do some resea... | |
| What is the best MM or Hi Output MC cart for $250? JR.com has the AT150 for $250.You should also check out the Denon DL-160 HOMC. Outstanding performance for the price, usually $150 to $175. | |
| Speaker advice If you liked the RF 82's buy a pair of Klipsch RF7's. I know of a pair locally that has the Dean Westscott crossover modification. You will love them and they should be better than the RF82's (more the equivalent of the RF 83's). Klispch Cornwalls... | |
| To repair/replace Utopia Be All good advice. Extra Action has you all set. I recently repalced a tweeter dome for a friend on a pair of B&W's and had to solder the leads.Note the position of the wires. If you can, take a digital photo of the old one.When I unsoldered the... | |
| Buying a New Cartridge I used an AT440 on a Technics 1200 table. It was muddy, dark and difficult to listen to. I repalced it with a Denon Dl 160 and a heavier headshell. Much much better, more natural and dynamic. Very good for the money.I mounted the Denon 160 on a Re... | |
| HELP B&W 802D or Revel Ultima Salon2 FWIW, I just read an ad where the Salon II is Stereophile's speaker of the year for 2008. if this is true I am not surprized at all, it was very impressive. Did you get a chance to audition them yet? |
