| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic OK...I guess this means I'm on my own, so no Bentley for mapman...I started on the prototype by gluing some pics of graphite (car magazine McLaren seat pod closeups) on a Littelfuse. I've decided these should also be "music specific"...certain one... | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic I think we’re close to the $500 fuse, which should arrive in a wooden box with a registration number...gets me thinking...hmm...hey mapman...wanna make some bucks? Let’s see...we need paint, something we claim is graphene (we don’t need to expose ... | |
| The Difficulties in Component "Shootouts" My hearing is hard to quantify unlike herring which, clearly, is a fish. I've been hired to work at a concert later this month where the performers are using all their own stuff but the concert producer doesn't trust them. Consequently, my job see... | |
| What speakers would be an upgrade from my klipsch la scallas and my Klipsch Chorus Great tube amps aren't "euphonic" or muddy or anything other than musically accurate, more linear, and hipper...unless you have one of those new Pass amps, which in itself is pretty hip even with zero tubes. Otherwise I get that many don't feel li... | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic Where the "$150 fuser" likely goes next is off to the latest bit of hyperbole fueled silliness launched by some "magic tweak" purveyor bent on discovering how much people will pay for something like a fuse. Note that fuses don't and can't improve ... | |
| Opinions needed on some Klipsch for 2 channel I had considered the new Fortes, but their largeness was an issue...they did a good job with the improved version (new mid horn I think) and I thought they sounded nice and clean when I heard them, but the Heresy IIIs are less obtrusive and maybe ... | |
| Opinions needed on some Klipsch for 2 channel As I mention often (too often maybe, but hey...I’m an insecure attention monger!) I have been enjoying a new pair of Heresy III "Capitol Editions" (meaning they’re signed or have different finishes than stock...or something...mine are labeled Ebon... | |
| Opinions needed on some Klipsch for 2 channel Heresy III need a sub (or 2) but otherwise are simply a great sounding relative bargain, and unobtrusively short. | |
| What Matters and What is Nonsense "Nurse...get some Power Ports in here...my pulse monitor is blinking." | |
| The Difficulties in Component "Shootouts" I think "shootouts" are an unnecessarily violent means of determining the validity of a component as it only determines which component is a faster or more accurate shot. | |
| What Matters and What is Nonsense There has been a recent wave of hospital burglaries where confessed audio geeks have been caught trying to steal the AC receptacles. Sad... | |
| The Difficulties in Component "Shootouts" When I sense that something isn't quite right it causes me to get rid of whatever doesn't work (assuming I can figure out what it is)...a pair of "balanced" Mogami cables didn't work, possibly due to the fact that my amp wasn't actually balanced a... | |
| What speakers would be an upgrade from my klipsch la scallas and my Klipsch Chorus Klipsch Heresy IIIs (since you seem to like Klipsch) and a couple of subs (RELs)...I recently started using this setup and it’s sounding astonishingly good, and it’s all within your 4 grand budget. You’d have money left over to get that Dennis Had... | |
| Surprised Sorry you missed the humor in my post Clearthink (I bet you're a LOT of fun at parties), but I still wonder if anyone moves a sub a little from time to time. I don't need any suggestions regarding my "fiddling" with my system as I've had decades ... | |
| Schiit not shipping Interesting that many of the alleged "drug addled" posters around here have maintained some basic punctuation skills as well as the application of rational and (sometimes) logical thought to their posts. Clearthink might be well intentioned, but c... |
