Best guitar explosion of all time
Many cuts off Joe Satriani's various albums...excellent guitar 'shredder' action throughout... 
Legacy Focus 20/20 versus Focus HDs
Hifiman: Are you all set? Did you receive the info I sent? 
Legacy Focus 20/20 versus Focus HDs
No problem, would be glad to. I had already did twice but for some reason, it's not making it through...I'll try sending through Audiogon to your UserID's registered email address. 
Legacy Focus 20/20 versus Focus HDs
Colem9; Did you receive my emailed feedback on these speakers? 
Legacy Focus 20/20 versus Focus HDs
Anytime...would be glad to. I'll place a caveat on the fact that I've read alot of folks like the Aerial's and many other speakers. The comments I'll send you are only my opinion (I'm not a dealer!) and a comparasion between the 2 models each of w... 
Legacy Focus 20/20 versus Focus HDs
Yes, I own both and the HD's are a fantastic speaker with many differences that I like over and above the things about the 20/20's I (still) love.Correspond with me in email and I'll give you quite lengthy feedback that I've shared with 2 other A-... 
are spike threads standard for speakers legacy
Chad,Another idea to try....I removed the rails and spikes from my 20/20's altogether and have the Focus 20/20's on a 4 Black Diamond Racing Super Jumbo Pucks per side. This makes a hell of a difference over any spike that I tried with the Foci....

Thank you both for your help and advice....Happy New Year! 
Subwoofer with XLR I/O
REL Brittania B1 has both XLR and RCA LFE inputs...I own one and love it 
Which $7000 speakers to ask Santa?
Try Legacy Audio Focus 20/20, 16Hz-30Khz (+/- 2db),ability to play a large variety of material musically from pipe organ and full symphony to techno and rock. They retail at around $6500, are extremely well built and a tremendous value for the mon... 
Legacy Helix Reference Speakers
Thank you for your reply....(at least according to specs) the Helix is 16Hz-25Khz +/-2db while the Focus 20/20 is 16Hz-30Khz +/-2db. The Whispers are the ones (at least on paper) where the bass goes to 25Hz. In principal, this would seem to indica... 
New Pre-Pro or Pre with HT by-pass
After alot of listening of both less and more expensive components ($5K-$18K), I came to find the Classe SSP-600 pre/proc to be a great (IMHO) HT as well as 2-ch and multi-channel analog bypass-capable pre/proc.It's got much more to offer than its... 
Power cord that improve the soundstage the most?
From my personal experience over the last 2-3 years during which I've heard many different brands of expensive to ridiculously priced power cords is that my personal prefs tend toward Shunyata powersnakes all around. I owned Taipan, Python and Ana... 
The current SOTA SACD player
I've been wow'ed by and now own a 2-channel, 2-box solution, the Esoteric P-03 and D-03 combination running in Dual XLR AES/EBU configuration; gives pure DSD for SACDs and lots of other options. Word clock in DAC can be used to slave the P-03 tran... 
AMP RECOMMENDATIONS
I am using an EDGE G8 with Legacy Focus 20/20's with extremely good results in all areas. Audioquest Panther interconnects complete the circuit with AQ Volcano wire to the speakers.Good luck!
