| Schweikert VR4-Jr vs. Gallo Reference 3 with SA Yeah, I hoped they would have been. But even if they were 5-10% less than overseas it wouldn't help much. They are simply in a higher league than the VSA and Gallo's. I have heard these and they are just incredible! To give you an indication of pr... | |
| Schweikert VR4-Jr vs. Gallo Reference 3 with SA Cinematic_systems: because Vivid audio is extremely expensive. For the same price they are asking for their floorstander I would rather looking into something like a Diva Utopia or Wilson Sophia or Dynaudio C4 etc. You are talking about the equiva... | |
| Schweikert VR4-Jr vs. Gallo Reference 3 with SA It's about the 15th I've hear :pI gave up about 6 months ago already. I am sitting very happily wit my Revel Gems :) | |
| Gallo Reference3 back orders Jcruse - the response I got from Gallo said Spring, latest end of March :) . They specifically said that delivery would be by end of march, for both the speakers AND the amp! And I understand Teonyc's point of "Gallo has a reputation of taking the... | |
| Gallo Reference3 back orders I ordered my pair in the beginning of December 2004. I waited until the end of March this year. I got zero feedback from Gallo, and the local distributor for my country could not give me any information. I do not blame him really - Gallo were dodg... | |
| Upgrade time way past : Amp/Pre or Int for $1000 I recommend the Electrocompaniet ECI integrated amps. There is the ECI-3 (70W) or the ECI-4 (120W). They are superbly built and sound spectacular. They are also great as they can be used in possible future upgrades, in that unlike many integrateds... | |
| Revel Gem Positioning and Tweeter Settings Bump....Anyone at all?? | |
| general query about cables on Agon Agreed. Whether it's a side-business, hobby etc. I believe if the cables are sold NEW then only those authorized should be able to sell, with full cable-manufacture backing and support. In the 2nd hand market though it is not neccessary - just lik... | |
| general query about cables on Agon One thing you must remember is that cables are the easiest to sell. What I mean by that is that they:-are generally far less expensive than other components (electronics, speakers etc.)-take up little space and weigh little, thus shipping costs ar... | |
| Gallo reference /TAS vs Me I placed an order for these end of last year. I kept on getting runarounds from both the dealer and Gallo direct. One problem and delay after another. Not to mention it takes 3-4 emails before getting a reply and the emails were fairly rude. I was... | |
| VR-4jr or Gallo Nucleus Reference 3 I have to disagree with you jdm61.The reviewers referring to the SA as a possible weak point are those that did not get a chance to hear it. Those that heard it (especially those that got pre-launch units and had a good few months to spend with it... | |
| PowerCon Connectors Hi There,Thought I might chime in on this. There is a local company here in South Africa called Aeolian. They mainly distribute very high-end equipment (eg. Burmester, Avantgarde etc.) but they make their own power cables and distribution unit cal... | |
| Am I crazy????? Try THIS Don't forget that there are two things you can do with speakers and floors: couple and decouple. It all depends on the underlying floor material, room acoustics, speaker characteristics etc. | |
| Am I crazy????? Try THIS That assumption has been proven wrong. Not sure where exactly but I remember people doing experiments. They found that, even with large speakers with dual 10" drivers, the amount of air they moved induced minimal movement, not enough at all to cau... | |
| Am I crazy????? Try THIS Haven't done it but have heard of it. Meant to be the ideal means to isolate the speakers from the floor, which is especially important with resonant floors such as suspended wood etc. The main difficulty is actually having them in a safe way (wou... |
