| Speaker Spikes - do the shake test I was merely pointing out that the test procedure, as carefully managed as it was, resulted in results that are useless to ME. After all, it's me that matters. I have done my own tests on my stuff with myself, and the result of de-coupling my Silv... | |
| Who needs drugs when you've got music? To make your herbal recreation choices based on the fact that some people shouldn't use it since they clearly have a propensity for abuse of it, shouldn't matter to the rest of us. I don't want to sound like a NORML crusader because I don't care e... | |
| Thiel CS1.7 loudspeaker A local audio "salon" has the last "new from the factory" 1.6s and although they've priced them pretty high it's comforting to know they're out there as I like the way they sound...I have seen used 1.6's pricing all over the place so I'll just lur... | |
| Thiel CS1.7 loudspeaker I think the 1.7 replaces the 1.6, and will cost a lot more. | |
| Who needs drugs when you've got music? Reefer Madness. There really are alternative universes it seems. | |
| Speaker Spikes - do the shake test The entire test noted above was not performed in my house with my ears, and thus is rendered useless, especially since it didn't test my speakers or any other floorstanding speakers on wood floors using vibrapods. Also, the text of the post was cl... | |
| Who needs drugs when you've got music? I don't mind memory loss as it simply allows me to experience things multiple times as if they were new. | |
| Who needs drugs when you've got music? "So what is the loss you claim when attempting to benefit from an otherwise useless experience?"...mostly vitamin B. | |
| PSB Image t6 or Imagine T? No sub and rotel amp I think we need a moratorium on music style seeming important to speaker selection. "I listen mostly to streaming Bangra dance music and solo flute on 78s, with some Mahler and Tibetan Throat warbeling 45 rpm LPs"...I can't take it...please...I re... | |
| Elevate Floorstanders to Ear Level? It depends on the speaker of course, but I found some butcher blocks that fit under my Silverline Preludes perfectly (2 blocks per side) and painted 'em flat black. Raised them to exactly my ear level (added maybe 4 inches) and since the Preludes ... | |
| Who needs drugs when you've got music? You can smoke pot and noodle all day, but few other drugs allow that...sort of speaks to the "lumping together" nonesense of the term "drugs." The image of the "creative stoned musician dude" is a lame parody to most pro musicians who have experie... | |
| Who needs drugs when you've got music? Some notes on drugs and music: The bebop era jazz world was devastated by heroin and I (and pretty much every informed fan) assume a LOT more great music would have been produced without it, with many less dead musicians. I've been a musician sinc... | |
| Speaker Spikes - do the shake test Yes, the engineers I've known are utterly responsible for ruining pop music as we know it. Bastards! But then I don't listen to much pop music... | |
| Jolida jd-502p Yeah man. I've thought about the mono 502p path but my speakers seem to be efficient enough to make me not want to bother...and I don't really have the room with my current rack space...HOWEVER...let me know how that works out as I've never heard ... | |
| Speaker Spikes - do the shake test France. They're from France. Also, I point out the lack of an audiophile propensity among many pro producers and engineers because it's interesting that in spite of that fact great stuff gets done. I've worked with people with great ears for recor... |
