Do you listen to equipment or music. As a sideline...I'm involved in live music as a musician and live sound engineer. Talk to the sales people in either of the High End shops I live near and not only do they not do little "house concerts" at their shops (ask about that fact and note... | |
Talk but not walk? Bob Dylan actually DID sell out to ladies garments when he astonishingly appeared in a Victoria's Secret TV ad a few years ago. | |
HELP!!! I need a “GOOD-CHEAP” preamp solution??? I ignore the fuse in my Schiit Freya as I think magic fuse myths are utter inexplicable baloney touted by shills and wishful thinkers ( I tested some highly touted Special Fuses to see if they were better, and they not only aren't, but the ones I ... | |
Horn based loudspeakers why the controversy? I completely agree that speakers like the Heresy IIIs I have been enjoying are perhaps the most coherent I've heard to their 58hz or so limits (there is bass below that point of course, but not in the same tonal or dynamic ballpark)...very clean, ... | |
New Member And few questions on First Tube Amp. I highly recommend one of the newer Jolida/Black Ice integrateds...made in China, tweaked in MD, and you can call 'em with questions...less expensive than Primaluna's stuff, and it sounds great...owned an older model 502p for years and loved it.Fu... | |
What class of amplifier has the most high definition sound ? When I joined the single ended tube amp cult (the meetings surprisingly require elaborate disguises and often feature meaningless chanting) it was sort of an experiment as I became curious about all the fuss and mythology about these amps, so to ... | |
Head-Fi Rack Recommendation If there is no sound to disturb the tubes I can't see that justification either, but then I'm easily confused... | |
high-efficiency loudspeakers By the way, tseamless isn't an actual word. | |
Beware of the cable claiming long burn in period. I have some Morrow ICs that broke-in 87% over a couple of weeks and just stopped...then they resumed break-in on their own about 2 days later, like they were messing with my brain. After being away for a weekend they un broke-in about 8% and then ... | |
Head-Fi Rack Recommendation Why would you need isolation for a headphone rig? You live in a construction site trailer? Share the listening space with a Flamenco dance school? Digital jitter is actual jitter? Listen to headphones REALLY REALLY loud? Lots of pesky seismic trem... | |
Horn based loudspeakers why the controversy? Except music with a 5 string bass at 31hz for the low B, percussion overtones, pianos, the ambient sound around live orchestras, life...etc.... | |
Any Audiophile Fuses UL approved? Littelfuse products are UL approved, they sound every bit as good as hyperbole laden "audiophile" fuses, perform flawlessly, and cost about 2 bucks. | |
Pro audio amps for a home system I saw a pic of the Magico factory and there was a QSC GX3 amp sitting there...I have one of those, and I had to wonder what Magico uses it for. I use mine for live stuff here and there, but its fans are too loud for my recording studio...I have a... | |
high-efficiency loudspeakers One thing about the Heresy IIIs that's interesting and noticeable when looking at them (which I often do since they're in front of my eyeballs when listening) explains part of the musical coherence they display in spades...measured from the center... | |
Ordered Magico S5 MK II traded S5 MK I - Thoughts - Feedback - Anyone here them? Has Magico come up with anything like a grill to protect that tweeter from being poked? I was talking to somebody at Goodwins last year about that exact thing, and he said, "Oh yeah...that happens more often than ya want to know." A small barbed w... |
