| Merlin vsm mme owners, Cardas cabling Question. Robbob: I wasn't referring to the TSM. I believe they were called Excalibur -- or something like that. They were tower-type speakers and looked something like Mirage or big Vandersteens.It's your opinion that the Totems -- you don't even say which... | |
| Merlin vsm mme owners, Cardas cabling Question. Robbob: No ax to grind at all. In fact, I've repeatedly praised Bobby for his passion and commitment to customers. Also, I really wanted to like my Merlins. His enthusiasm is contagious and he uses top-notch components.Unfortunately, he made his b... | |
| Merlin vsm mme owners, Cardas cabling Question. For the record, I had all Cardas cables (Golden Cross and Neutral Reference) -- this was mandated at the time by Bobby and my dealer. The associated equipment consisted of a Levinson 37 transport, Levinson 360S processor, Audio Research LS25 and A... | |
| Merlin vsm mme owners, Cardas cabling Question. I followed Bobby's advice and bought Cardas Golden Cross speaker cables and interconnects and the Merlins did indeed sound way better; however, when I got a pair of Dunlavy SC-IV/A's and then switched from Cardas to Acoustic Zen it was actually st... | |
| Merlin vsm mme owners, Cardas cabling Question. It's the same speaker with some tweaks and TONS of marketing. Same basic cabinet, same woofer, same tweeter, same basic crossover design. To you it may sound way different but blindfold a dozen audiophiles and let them hear all 15 versions of your... | |
| Merlin vsm mme owners, Cardas cabling Question. Juancgenao: The Cardas cables will provide precisely the not-so-subtle tone control element that the Merlins need. You'll be amazed. | |
| Having problems with a NAD 3020 Anyone know a teacher? | |
| Audio Research Sp-6a-Should it be modified? I recommend that you ask Steve Huntley at Great Northern Sound Co. He's honest and his work is exceptional. | |
| What Color is your system My system is the color that would blow your head clean off.(With apologies to Clint Eastwood.) | |
| B&W vs Von Schweikert house sound? I think Maineiac nailed it, plus he has great taste in women. You'll be happy with any pair of Von Schweikerts for many years. The VR-4Sr. certainly helped me get off the crazy upgrade highway, and I owned probably 20 high-end speakers before sett... | |
| TOTEM Sttaf removing mass loading Yeah, beaks and mass loading are kind of the same . . . | |
| TOTEM Sttaf removing mass loading The last time I checked, Totem recommends loading speakers like the Arro and Sttaf. Having the seller remove the sand, kitty litter -- whatever -- is no big deal and certainly no reason not to buy. | |
| Can you get "bookshelf sound" from a floorstander? Marty: I'm not kidding. You are a moron. You weren't taking liberties with the English language. You're sloppy and you obviously don't know better. You can be thankful people edit -- probably heavily -- anything you may have "authored."The only pa... | |
| Can you get "bookshelf sound" from a floorstander? Marty: They obviously didn't teach you English. Master's needs an apostrophe "s," LA-based should be hyphenated and what's the name of that school again? Also, was the cathedral or Passau the largest such instrument? Oh. You meant the organ. You h... | |
| Can you get "bookshelf sound" from a floorstander? Marty: Did you even go to school? Based on your posts and your writing prowess I tend to doubt it. Your ability to misinterpret is almost as impressive as your arrogance. I never claimed that you said "1st order crossovers were worse than any othe... |
