| Which Audioquest XLR? The Diamondback at used price is the way to go. | |
| Proac problem: tweeters or crossover? With the crossover at 3kHz as Almarg stated, I think what you are hearing is normal. I had a pair of Paradigm Studio 60s that experienced a tweeter failure, the dome disintegrated. When I replaced it I first listened to the tweeter separately as y... | |
| Proac problem: tweeters or crossover? Hard to know exactly what you're hearing but tweeters alone don't make a lot of the sound when music is played. Assuming the crossover point is above 2kHz, there wouldn't be much information to produce as the majority of the music signal is below ... | |
| What are your favorite speaker finishes? Truly a shame pics can't be posted here. | |
| Rock and roll speakers? Bose 901. Yeah, I went there. | |
| DIY AC Cable advice Agree with Mitch2 on using shielded cables for source components, especially digital. | |
| What are your favorite speaker finishes? I had a pair of Silverline SR11 monitors in the gloss red finish. I loved the look (and sound) of those small speakers. I also once had a pair of the Usher S520s in the gloss yellow; they were beautiful.That being said, my current favorite is the ... | |

| the difficult second Lp Counting Crows made a masterpiece, IMO, with August And Everything After. They never came close to that one. | |
| 12ax7WA I received a pair of Sylvania 12AU7WA tubes in the little white boxes with the Federal Stock Number stamp a while ago. Holding those boxes in my hand transported me back to my early Air Force days in 1974. Not sure if it was the memory or the soun... | |
| Muffled voice in the back of stage? I had similar trouble with a pair of Magnepan 12qrs. Sometimes voices were very prominent and on other recordings it sounded as if the singer was hiding behind the stage. It was a very curious phenomenon as the same recording on my Thiels had the ... | |
| Thiel with "Warmest" Midrange? 2.7 vs 3.7 vs Older Prof, Thanks for the informative response. I do enjoy the 1.6s in my small room but think I'll go for the 2.4 if I find a pair close enough. | |
| Thiel with "Warmest" Midrange? 2.7 vs 3.7 vs Older Prof, what do you mean when you say small room? I ask because I use a pair of Thiel 1.6s in a small room. They work beautifully IMO, but the lure of the 2.4 has had me for some time now. If a pair comes up within driving distance I may just get th... |
