| Impression of Acoustic Zen Hologram II 8ft I am currently using a set of Audio Art SE-5SC cables and they made a fairly significant improvement in my system as well. I'm starting to collect a few Acoustic Zen cables (Tsunami III and Gargantua II power cables along with the Matrix Reference... | |
| Magico A3 vs. Joseph Audio Perspective vs. Spendor D9 @twoleftears Definitely a valid opinion. Many people love the sound of Harbeth's. I had heard a lot about the musical midrange and I was very excited about listening to them. When I heard the 40.1, I was disappointed. Midrange was there but felt t... | |
| Magico A3 vs. Joseph Audio Perspective vs. Spendor D9 @drrsutliff I got the dark walnut finish. Counting down the hours to the weekend when I pick them up! I have heard that after a few months, they sound incredible but that they do sound great right out of the box as well. Either way, I'm excited to... | |
| Revel Performa 206, PSB T-2, Focal Aria 936: Which offers the best overall sound? Interesting comment re the Focal 936 not having detail in the highs. I thought that this was were it was a fairly strong performer. I had the 936's for a few weeks at home and I enjoyed them a good amount. I decided on a set of Ascend Acoustics Si... | |
| Prioritization of Power Cords @twoleftears right, that is what I was wondering - "what is the definition of source?" To me, it could be my DAC/Streamer or it could be the wall to my conditioner. It sounds like there could be some benefits elsewhere along the chain as well incl... | |
| Audioquest vs Acoustic Zen @nasaman I wonder how or if your opinion changes with the new line of Storm series power cords by Audioquest? Is it an improvement over the Acoustic Zen in that case? | |
| Power Cords @ricred1 Looking forward to hearing your thoughts. I am contemplating the new Storm series power cords as well to connect to my Niagra 1000. Wonder how it compares to an Acoustic Zen Gargantua II... | |
| Magico A3 vs. Joseph Audio Perspective vs. Spendor D9 Guys, I have made a decision and put in an order. Spendor D9's will be mine by next week. I expect to love these based on what I have heard in the D7's but will report back with thoughts, especially compared to the Magico A3's after I get a chance... | |
| Wilson Audio Sophias to Sabrinas Really liked the Sabrina's that I heard, powered by the McIntosh 252 or the Naim Uniti Atom. Dynamic and exciting are two adjectives that immediately come to mind. Some of the best bass I have heard for a speaker at that price point. Haven't heard... | |
| Joseph Audio RM-33LE vs DeVore Gibbon 8, my experience. Agreed that playing loud in order to appreciate the sound from your speakers is asking for a bit much. A great speaker will sound fantastic at low/moderate volumes too - or, at least it should. Based on my quest to find a new set of speakers, I ha... | |
| Magico A3 vs. Joseph Audio Perspective vs. Spendor D9 @twoleftears Neither of those two would be a good match for our decor unfortunately. I am in the Seattle area though. | |
| Magico A3 vs. Joseph Audio Perspective vs. Spendor D9 @dantheman76 Awesome, another local. How are you liking your 805ia and the D7's? I have heard the D7's at Hawthorne but not with the LM obviously. They sounded fantastic and I can only imagine that the D9's are better all around. | |
| Magico A3 vs. Joseph Audio Perspective vs. Spendor D9 @twoleftears Totally agree with your view that it all depends on the listener’s ears. I personally didn’t like the Harbeth 40.1’s that I heard paired with both Primaluna and then Naim gear. While the midrange was musical, details and clarity were ... | |
| Best used speakers under $10000 @marrduk24 how are you doing on your search? Have you zero'd in on one? | |
| Magico A3 vs. Joseph Audio Perspective vs. Spendor D9 @otinkyad Hope you are having as much fun as I am with this search. There are definitely a lot of candidates at this price point. One thing that I have learned is that the question, "which speaker to get" leads to more speakers to add onto the lis... |
