| MAC Autoformers? one thing I greatly value is a collegial, challenging, supportive and sharing attitude in the user AND supplier community....I did not know Roger did the bias forming....also..so I will add to my list of collaborative yet competitive firms RM, Van... | |

| Planar/panel speakers to replace Carver Amazings surely a call to the wizard of Lake Stevens ( aka Bob himself ) might yeild a name of somebody supporting his old products ????? | |
| Bestmatch the NAIM group on FB is pretty global and reflects fairly wide range of speakers successfully employed...some faves the usual UK lines, Focal, PMC, etc..i have a 40 wpc Atom driving Vandersteen Treo CT with what I think are sublime results.....you... | |
| MAC Autoformers? i am rebuilding a set of ESL63.... to learn but also listen to....will start out with a rebuilt MC240 ( which probably has the best transformers available in 1961 !anyway, my mentor Richard Vandersteen always says run it on the best sounding tap”b... | |

| narrow and wide baffles and imaging great thread has me reading some old and new papers and thinking about ( anything is possible with a third Margarita and some good Jazz ) brushing up on my partial differential equations......wellmaybe not....can we agree humans can hear + / - 5 d... | |
| Have you ever changed speakers to expereince a different "soundscape" or presentation?? @electroslacker i love radio paradise !!!!!! | |

| narrow and wide baffles and imaging Duke: hence my blackart comment... much harder to figure out with reliability psychoacoustics than the more or less well understood physics... Werner H not withstanding....perhaps it is useful to think of the large baffle as a 180 degree Horn....a... | |
| Have you ever changed speakers to expereince a different "soundscape" or presentation?? chasing your tail with flavors..unless you have a true ( but faded ) reference back to the origional event...this realization came in evaluating some planer ribbons vs. my trusty time and phase coherent box speakers.....( i shall keep it brand agn... | |
