The usual suspects: S1, Cirrus, Tempesta, MMM1
I own a pair of Cirrus Blacks. In my basement room the sound was good but lean and too forward or bright. The room is very long, (40 feet) and only about 14 feet wide. Low suspended ceiling also, not very good for the sound. I spent a lot of time... 
Polk audio rt2000p or LSi 25 big difference ?
Sorry if I said something offensive? You would be better served at Avsforum, actual owners that would likely help. So no need to waste your time with us snobs then. 
Polk audio rt2000p or LSi 25 big difference ?
You can check out AVSforum.com too, there is a dedicated Polk owners thread in the speakers forum. I never owned Polks but remember how impressive those SDA-SRS 1.2TL speakers looked. Really wanted to get a pair but too expensive for me back then ... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Update, Axel sent email explaining the situation. Things work a little different in Germany. He picked up the cartridge at his customer office after receiving letter notifying that package is there for pick-up. He needs to drive 60KM to pick-up hi... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Thanks for the recommendation Griffiths, unfortunately I can't send the P100CMKIV anywhere because I don't have it. I sent another email to Axel to ask for acknowledgement if he picked up my cartridge and stylus. Will update on further development... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Nandric, I don't think you understand. I know the package is at Axels PO, he just did'nt pick it up since DEC. 4. He needs to pick it up, that's all! If he already did and my tracking doesn't show that,than sorry for these posts, but he never ackn... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Nandric, my package is not lost its at Post Office according to my tracking information. "Addressee requested pick-up" since Dec. 4, which is fine as long as the post office keeps holding it. I thought it is a limit to how long the PO will hold a ...

Edit: That's lose or throw away... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Nandric, maybe Axel needs a new secretary. My expensive package is still sitting at the German PO, nine days now according to my tracking info. If I used an excuse of Christmas shopping as to why I can't do my job I'd be laughed AT then soon afte... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Thanks Raul, I don't want to rush Axel, just was a little concerned. I bought the P100ED4 from a private seller on line, this was his only sample. All but impossible to find them now. 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Does Axel always request pick up of his mail from his post office then leave it sit there several days? I sent my Technics P100C MKIV cartridge plus a NOS stylus to him for check and refresh suspensions. After tracking my cartridge it's been sitti... 
New Oppo 103 & 105 Q&A Interview
I just got a 103, the sound quality from SACD and CD surprised me. At first the sound was bright and grainy. After some hours it sounds very good to me. Very clear, imaging, dynamics and sound staging very good! For the price a true bargain in my ... 
REL G2 or JL Audio F112 ..thoughts for 2 channel
I guess I am lucky, I don't know much of anything about integrating subs. Just read the instruction manual, stuck it in the corner and adjusted till it sounded "right" to me, and sounds just fine to me. Just one little REL T9 is all I needed for m... 
The best speaker you ever heard?
Curious how the wood glue tweak improves with time, that stuff dries fairly quick. I guess it stiffens and damps the drivers some, but it seems strange that it would make so much of an improvement. Anyway hopefully more people report on this, it i...

Vapor Audio Cirrus stand mounts, awesome!
