| Line Array Speaker vs Point Source Speaker That's quite a compliment Duke!How do line arrays deal with "comb filtering", or is it not an issue? | |
| Flawed? Wilson's Aspherical Propagation Delay Thanks for the response thus far...To clarify, I am a Wilson fan and own their speakers. To my ears they are more fundamentally correct in reproducing music than just about anything else I've heard in my price range. I'm not trying to create a Mag... | |
| Is my room doomed? Pic Nice gear!!!I'd try switching the speakers so the woofers fire at each other instead of away. Your lack of sidewalls is probably the biggest issue, compounded by side-firing woofers.You should be honest with your dealer and make him/her work with ... | |
| Sophia 2/Magico V2 versus Sasha/Magico V3 Congrats Peterayer, update the system photos!I knew I might be stepping on some toes with the Pass comment. In all fairness, I used the XA30.5 with the Magico V3 and V2s at the dealer with an Ayre K1xe pre and a VAC Sig II pre. We played the XA30.... | |
| Sophia 2/Magico V2 versus Sasha/Magico V3 Thanks for the feedback Madfloyd. Curious as to why you ruled out the V3?IMO, the Sashas are best suited for your current system. I find Wilson and Pass Class A amplification to be very synergistic. I found Magico and Pass Class A amplification to... | |
| Sophia 2/Magico V2 versus Sasha/Magico V3 Madfloyd,Any further insights, comments, thoughts, decisions, etc.? I'm in the same situation as you, Sophia II owner looking at Magico as an upgrade. I can post some of my thoughts and experiences, although they are slightly contradictory to the ... | |
| tubes and rock and roll, good fit? I'd give serious consideration to VAC's new Statement 440 amps. I chose VAC (Phi 200) over VTL (MB 450sII) because I found more musicality, better control over microdynamics, and all around more lifelike sound from VAC. That being said, Gryphon is... | |
| Shindo Amplifiers and Audio Note Loudspeakers? Thanks Tvad. Keep us posted, we're interested... | |
| Shindo Amplifiers and Audio Note Loudspeakers? Tvad,Did you get the AN-E speakers yet? If so, let us know what you think of them and what amps/preamps you've tried with them thus far...Thanks! | |
| Magico V2 vs. Sonus Faber Cremona M I've had the Primare I30 and the Plinius 9200 on the SF Cremonas. The Plinius 9200 is clearly superior, but it's not the end of the line. Personally, I'd look at a Mcintosh integrated for the SF, the highest powered one you can afford. The bigger ... | |
| Classic Audio T1 and T3 field coil loudspeakers Agree with Swampwalker, the T1 was superior. The T3 had field coils only on the mid and high horns, the woofers were not field coil. There is so much presence and immediacy with these speakers, it's scary. Everything else sounded slow and opaque b... | |
| Acoustic Zen Crescendo - Anybody heard this one? I've only heard these speakers at shows (RMAF), but they sound really really great to my ears. We always talk about detail versus relaxing musicality, but these speakers get the closest at the shows. The only other relaxingly detailed speakers I c... | |
| Magico V2? Thanks Peterayer! It seems Spectral and Magico make for a musical system. Everytime I hear Spectral, I marvel at its ability to sound realistic and alive. Everytime I hear Magico, I get the same feeling, but with an added sense of richness, so it ... | |
| Magico V2? What Spectral amp and pre and cd in particular Mariv26 and Peterayer? | |
| Wilson's new speaker the Sasha is coming. I auditioned them this past weekend with near top VTL gear (S400, 6.5), DCS digital and mostly transparent cables.Honestly, they sound like a Maxx III in a smaller package. They are noticably bigger in size and sound than the WP8s and my Sophia 2s... |
