| High priced power cords and power conditioners???? The route I recommend, based on searching the archives here and at Audio Asylum, is to install upgraded outlets first then evaluate the power cords. I am getting incredible results with ACME cryo outlets and Elrod power cords. I have a couple of A... | |
| Dedicated line question Thanks for the responses. I truly appreciate them. | |
| Window treatment ---Recommendations on fabric? I have a lot of window area in my listening room and acheived very good results by treating my windows with Marigo VTS dots. I gained more focused and palpable images. | |
| Foolish Question, I believe I have what is essentially a dedicated line seeing that the only other things this line serves are an overhead foyer light (incandescent) and two outlets in the garage that are seldom used for anything. Can I somehow get this p... | |
| Overrated & Underrated I agree with Mike about rating art, but did enjoy seeing Toots recognized at the top of the underrated list. | |
| Norh Speakers from Thailand: High-end or Hype?? I have never heard them, but know of at least 1 person that favors the Model 9. I would suspect that they are very good.One nOrh 9.0 Fan's System | |
| Alternative to Avantgarde Uno? Take a look at the Köchel K300 used, or the Köchel K200 new.tmh audio Website | |
| What are the "Must have" LP's? Black Uhuru - The Dub FactorOne can never tell if you will like the music, but this WILL show off a systems capabilities, more vigorously than any other that I am aware of. A must have for me. | |
| How important is speaker positioning?My experience I have Köchel K300 horns and found placement on the long wall sounded horrible with these. Come to think of it, I remember not liking my N.E.A.R. 50Me II along the long walls either. | |
| Why is Double Blind Testing Controversial? Very well stated Hearhere. | |
| Opinions of Near loudspeakers I had some 50Me II's and was pleased with them. Relatively speaking they are dynamic and transparent. I used Marigo dots on the cones and dynamic bands on the basket arms, which elevated their performance, more weight and articulation. I don't kno... | |
| Are Horn Speakers good or bad or simply a complete joke? Amen to Sean's post. C'est La Vie | |
| Why is Double Blind Testing Controversial? Sean, my response to Hearhere pertained to his/her first post. While Hearhere, in my eyes, appears to be one of the more honorable, reasonable, and sincere of the DBT suporters, there is still a significant insinuation that audiophiles, as group, ... | |
| Audio Physic Virgo 3 vs. Usher's Compass 8571?? I have heard neither, but can tell you that Jim Ricketts of tmh audio, carries some pretty nice gear. Usher is one his lines.tmh audio WebsiteI suspect that he finds them superior to Köchel loudspeakers, another line that he carries. I love my Köc... | |
| Why is Double Blind Testing Controversial? Hearhere, again why the need to insist or imply that the average audiophile is deceived. What are the "many factors that drive preference in addition to sound" besides ergonomics, convenience, and build quality.In a Utopian sense I love the idea o... |
