| Speakers: all-time worst Bose Blows the Most. Even setting aside the rediculous over pricing, and their marketting that is killing high end audio, they are still some of the worst speakers I have ever heard. The AcoustiMudds, the 9 mids 0 tweeters 1 helluva price model, a... | |
| Gold CDs sound Darker? Interesting. So perhaps the difference in Gold releases is that the whole package is better. From the masters used, to perhaps the polycarb medium as well, that accounts for some of the sonic differences, with or without the tweaks. Overall, I hav... | |
| Gold CDs sound Darker? Not in the industry either, but agree with Carl. One other thing to consider is that your system may be "tuned" for the sound of the aluminum discs/normal pressings. For example, maybe your system is a little on smoother, mellower side of neutral,... | |
| Most important link: Source? Pre-amp?or? The survey SAYS ... I'll put my money on the speakers if digital sourced, turntable if analog sourced. I once bought into the Scottish 'top down' theory (Linn that is), and was quite happy with an LP-12 running to a Linn preamp, NAD amp, and some ... | |
| It's not the sound I want! EARPLUGS ! Wow! What a tweak. I think I'll start a company to sell earplugs, and start by sending several samples to reviewers at Stereophile. | |
| It's not the sound I want! I also agree that the Adcom has GOT to go! In addition, I would say GET SOME TUBES. Given the resolution oriented amplification and speakers that you have, and the fact that you like acoustic guitar and vocals, you could do very well with SOME tub... | |
| Are my speakers blown??? Well, if the distortion is very similar between the two speakers, it is probably NOT the speakers. One would expect only one speaker to fail at any time, or for them to have different sounding distortion from each, considering they are mechanical ... | |
| Black Diamond Cones ADVICE Hello. My experience with the BDR has been that choice of placement makes a big difference. Where you put them, and whether you point them up or down makes a noticeable difference. Also, they are NOT sharp pointed, so they wont scratch your shelf ... | |
| Best platform for Rega 25 Dave says "Need be I will throw myself under the falling slab to save my electronics.".. . . hehehehe.... back when I was getting into the home theater thing, I had my rears held to the ceiling by a spring tension curtain rod. You know, while I wa... | |
| quality of fisher tube receivers The Fisher's are a great way to warm up to tubes :) I've had a couple and like the sound quite a bit. There used to be a problem with getting output tubes of the type used by some of the Fisher receivers, but they are back in production and readil... | |
| Proac Studio 100 I think perhaps you were looking at the Studio 150, which sold for $2300, as opposed to the Studio 100, which sell for $1500 new I think. The 150 are floor standing, whereas the 100 are stand mount. In general, you can't go wrong with Proac, if yo... |
