| My list of seller red flags It's the market that determines the price, not what you think it is worth.The Seller is the other component that makes up a Market. Value is relative to each party. When 2 parties are in agreement on the value, you get the transaction. Doesn't mat... | |
| Who are your favorite A'gon posters? I was going to list a few but after reading this I just kept thinking, "oh yeah, that guy too.". | |
| Pro-Ject Debut Carbon DC with Ortofon 2M Red Cartridge vs.Pro-Ject - Debut Carbon Esprit S I just purchased the Pro-Ject Carbon Esprit. I went with the Esprit over the DC simply to save on the platter upgrade at a later date. With the acrylic platter you can forgo the felt, rubber, cork mat as well. There are one or two additional benef... | |
| I'm interested in hearing what "the best" systems sound like, where to go? @mike_in_nc Don't know what part of NC you are in but there is a great place called Liquid Hi Fi outside Charlotte, NC. Ron has a great listening room set up in his home that you could spend hours in, playing around with different components and p... | |
| Suspended cables I still think the mini Statue of Liberty models are the best idea I've heard so far | |
| Suspended cables @hleeid I tried it for myself and while I could not hear a difference, that doesn't mean you won't. I like the orderly arrangement the cables are in now. This makes it much easier to keep everything separated. Not only that but it does keep that d... | |
| Tubed Monos for Focal Aria 948s @gmercer I'll bet that sounds great. If the Sopras sound half as good as they look you must be pretty stoked. I heard a pair of Kantas at a dealer's home and that's what got me hooked on Focals. The clarity and detail was like nothing I've ever he... | |
| Tubed Monos for Focal Aria 948s @decooney I have a Prima Luna Dialogue HP pre amp that is connected to a pair of Odyssey Khartago mono blocks. They sound fine as is but the Focals are so clear that it sounds a little lean in the bass. As erik_squires pointed out, there is a dip ... | |
| Tubed Monos for Focal Aria 948s @decooney I agree with bass on the 948s. I thought Focals were a bit light on the bass by nature but not these. I'm using a Prima Luna Dialogue HP for the preamp and love the sound.@big_greg I figured that I would need around $5k for a good set of... | |
| Speaker sensitivity, impedance, and calculating amp power Glad you didn't delete the thread. I wanted to know this too | |
| Tubed Monos for Focal Aria 948s @oddiofyl You are the second person to recommend the Quiksilver 120. I will send a message to the company and explain what I have. Erik_Squires mentioned the 100 Hz dip so now I'll be focused on that as well.Again, thank you everyone for the infor... | |
| Tubed Monos for Focal Aria 948s Thank you everyone for the replies. As I expected, there is a good bit more to understand before making a selection and your information cuts down on research time.@erik_squires I was wondering where that part of the signal went. I love the sound ... | |
| Speakers Don’t Matter As Much As We Think They Do? I started off with a JVC receiver and a Sony 300 disc player that I kept on shuffle most of the time. Infinity bookshelf speakers completed the system. I new nothing about synergy, tubes vs SS, cables room acoustics, etc. Walked into a high end st... | |
| Why are Trolls not blocked @millercarbon Hear! Hear! We're in the age of information but no one has the capacity to process it | |
| Axe to grind know it alls Can't imagine who this thread is about.You could double the amount of of those fools and it still wouldn't detract from the quality of this site. I don't read their posts expecting to learn anything, I read them to see all the funny responses. Per... |
