| Borresen Acoustics Speakers - Have you heard them & what did you think? I haven’t heard them yet, but they’re not going to release a new speaker line without making sure they’re better than the Raidho lines. I’m sure they did lots of comparing with Raidhos they already had on hand. The only thing is since the Raidho t... | |
| Borresen Acoustics Speakers - Have you heard them & what did you think? Yes they are. | |
| Why so many used focals? I don’t know of any dealer who will normally give a discount and completely remove it because they brought you some speakers. Are you 60 miles from the store or something?You are making some very foolish assumptions. Oh, and 30% off a speaker t... | |
| Why so many used focals? Everything you mentioned has been discontinued for awhile and are all on clearance. Also, you’re wrong about dealer cost, of course. | |
| Why so many used focals? philkoan: What body part do you pull those numbers out of? Even 20% off Focal speakers would be pushing it. I don’t know of a speaker line with a smaller margin. They sell through a distributor and do NOT have the same margin as other speakers . S... | |
| Paradigm Persona series Not at all. A friend just got them for his center and 5F fronts. They're super nice, and make no detectable difference in sound. They're stupidly expensive, but definitely the nicest grilles I've ever seen/felt. | |
| My JL Audio sub is dead. What exactly happened? Every single E112 and E110 I’ve owned, and every one of my friends have owned, have all had their amps replaced. A few of them TWICE. I have moved on to the Paradigm Defiance X series (NOT the V series, those are not anything special) subs. They a... | |
| Why so many used focals? That is why the Kanta no. 3 exists. | |
| Why so many used focals? Music Direct has the Electra’s? If so, you’re listening to a speaker that has zero in common with any of the newer designs. Also, the listening rooms at MD are not good. | |
| Why so many used focals? "I suppose we have to consider how poor they can sound improperly set up. On rock recordings drums sounded live with excellent pitch definition and speed, but I thought I could hear the woofers working It was all very exciting and made me want the... | |
| Paradigm Premier. Thoughts Definitely not. The smaller floor stander Premier is $1,600 for the pair. I think you misread my post. | |
| Paradigm Premier. Thoughts Outstanding. Have you heard them? Keep in mind the smaller floor stander is like $1500 -- so, over your budget. If you meant the bookshelf speakers, I’d try your hardest to spend a little more and get the small floor standers vs the big bookshelfs. | |
| Isolation for Focal Aria 936 FYI Aperta 200's fit perfectly under the 936 if you take the bottom base off. Provides a completely different look however. I'm not a huge fan of how the Gaia's look on the Arias under the base, so it's a toss up. You can also screw Gaia III's ... | |
| Isolation for Focal Aria 936 What is the goal? | |
| Why so many used focals? Kanta is a far superior speaker to the Electras. Better on good recordings, and much better on bad recordings. |
