| Want to try separates, what to expect. By all means explore, but keep the Modwright.That way (1) you can compare in real time between the two sets of components, and (2) you can sell on the separates if they don't outdo the Modwright.You can probably achieve better sound, but how much ... | |
| Core Power Technologies Many transformers will hum under certain conditions. Really good quality ones, produced under high levels of QC, usually don't. A lot is in the QC. If the winding is a little "off", an individual example of a brand with a generally good reputat... | |
| Need Help With Focal Scala Placement At 2 feet out from the front wall, that would still give you about 7 1/2 feet, on the diagonal, between your ears and the front of the speakers, if you push back to the back wall. You won't know unless you try it. If it works pretty well, you ca... | |

| Linn Audio You could say something similar of Meridian--how many discussions here? I think both of them lost their way a while back, at least w.r.t. the US market. | |
| How good is your hearing ? And how do you know ? Is there a different between what I'll call sensitive hearing, and the physiological ability to hear the whole spectrum appropriate to one's age? | |

| Road trip to demo $10,000 speakers At Command Performance, they have three main rooms. Heard the Dynaudio Contour 60, Devore 0/93, and Kanta 2, in each of the rooms. I liked the Kanta best of the three, though it didn't make my shortlist. YMMV. | |
