Speakers That Will Party Hard Good suggestions all. However, some satellite speakers will work for this situation. The music is not played anywhere near "techno club" levels. These people are ballroom, Latin, and swing dancers so they find rhythms and phrasing in dance music, ... | |
What song best sums up the previous year? "First we kill all the Jews, then we come and kill you!" - Omar, student at Western Mich. Univ. when asked why he was going back to the Mideast during mid-session - 1972"He has gone back home to kill Jews." - Answer from Nabil when asked where his... | |
Speakers That Will Party Hard Ron wants to stick to ceiling hung satellites so there are no obstructions on the floor. He has Harmon Kardon amp and a Crate mixing board and Cd players. I've played around with the system and it really sounds like the speakers misbehaving; they'... | |
Is Smoking Really That Bad For Audio Equipment? I bought two interconnects from someone who smoked and they stank for over a year. I had them ozoned professionally and then sold 'em. They really stank and stunk up my room. I will never again buy from anyone who admits to smoking, even those who... | |
Red Trumpet still in business? Thanks, guys. I'll check out the website. All I know is the St Pepper's and "White Album" CDs I bought when first available in the 80s are unlistenable. The CD versions I got from Red Trumpet (Toshiba) are quite good with real bass, presense, and ... | |
Beginning Audio System Cyrillic! That's funny! | |
Beginning Audio System What kind of keyboard do you have?!? Guess I'd have to give a crap about computers to find those things...but I am curious. | |
Red Trumpet still in business? I bought two Toshia Japanese Beatles CDs from them a few years ago. Sound quality is very good and 10-15 times better than the Beatles crap currently available. The CDs we can get now are pretty much unlistenable. Anyone know where I can get some ... | |
Aesthetix Calypso and Herron VTSP 2 I really like it (think I already said that). It is, at the same time, more open, naturally dynamic, and musical than the $8,200.00 tube pre I had before. | |
Beginning Audio System Damn you, Gunbei!! (Just kidding...) Anyway, are you serious about the $876? I'm too lazy to Google it. | |
Aesthetix Calypso and Herron VTSP 2 I really like my Joule Electra LA150 MkII. Kinda off topic but just finished working and am kinda bored. Gonna watch "Dancing With The Stars" with my wife tonight. | |
Beginning Audio System I'm an ignorant American and don't have any idea how much 500 "lbs" is in USDs (where did you get that key for the symbol?), but Pabelson is right. I'd go for the best speakers you can find and look for used. This is a quite controversial subject ... | |
What's With the Ring Radiator Tweeter? That certainly provides a lot of info, but I wonder if anyone knows what material(s) are used in making them. I've always been a big believer that materials always inpart their own sound in speakers - metal tends to sound like metal, plastic to so... | |
What's With the Ring Radiator Tweeter? I'm not sure which one(s) are used by Sonus Faber but I'm curious as to the design, how they are constructed, etc. Also curious as to any experience with them in specific speakers. | |
Speaker Cable for Merlin TSM-MM I third the TG Audio speaker cables recommendation. Less than 1/2 the cost of Golden Ref (I use all Gold Ref ICs) and a little better sounding, to my ear. More solid and open at the same time. I fully agree with Mattybumpkin as regards Audience. T... |
