| Specific Specs to Recommend a Bookshelf Speaker Thanks for all the responses. You guys were right! In the end, after trying some speakers on the shelf, I was not happy with the aesthetic inability to toe-in the speakers. It could be done, but it kind of defeats the purpose and I think having th... | |
| Specific Specs to Recommend a Bookshelf Speaker An actual shelf (with left, right, top, bottom and back cabinet walls). Thx. | |
| Heed Obelisk Si There's a great review with reat photos up on DigitalAudioReview dot net. I think like Marc fron Vinyl Anachronist, John from Digital Audio Review has great taste in unique gear and music.http://www.digitalaudioreview.net.au/index.php/audio-review... | |
| Blue Note Jazz Recordings Hello there.I just got two of the RVG CD's last week. 1. The Horace Silver Quintet, "Song For My Father" and 2. Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers, "Moanin'". I have many Blue Note titles on Vinyl but not these two. I don't like to own the same th... | |

| Rotel 1072 & Arcam 73 comparison So I received the Arcam today and have played about 5 cd's on it. Right now listening to the Kings of Convenience, "Quiet is the New Loud". Had U2's new on one today... some jazz, electronica and indie rock (Wilco, Elefant)... so you could say I'm... | |
| Rotel 1072 & Arcam 73 comparison Thanks for the response Zenaissance. I completely agree with you about the amp and speakers remaining if done well... and they have. I've had the same amp (although I upgraded it) and same speakers through all of this downshifting. I tell ya, I wa... | |
| Floorstanders for small rooms? Budget $1200 used My room is similarly sized and my system is simlarly built on tubes and is warm-ish sounding. I have the Meadowlark Kestrel II's and am VERY VERY happy! They're 2-way floorstanders... no stand needed and better bass. I have them on my long wall, a... | |
| Rotel 1072 & Arcam 73 comparison I was just researching these two players (the Rotel and Arcam) and ordered the Arcam CD-73. It will be replacing a Classe CDP-10, which replaced a Sim Audio Moon Eclipse. I've been stepping down, selling my gear, pocketing the $ and still trying t... | |
| Want More Bass Thanks again for all the great comments and advice. - - - I repositioned the speakers back closer to the wall and now I have some more bass... at med-high volumes. I still would like more bass at low to med volumes. Is this a tube thing? Now I hav... | |
| Speaker placement/balance Who would have thunk... but I recently upgraded from my solid state integrated amp to tube separates (Rogue Audio separates in fact: an 88 and 66 Magnum) and did NOT change my speaker placement and noticed things to be very different in respect to... | |
| Want More Bass Thanks all. I AM fearful of the sub-speaker integration difficulty. My speakers are Linn's and I don't want to spend the $ on the Linn Sizmik sub. I like the REL Strata III sub, but am thinking that a full-range pair of speakers might be a better ... | |
