| 10K$ Speakers for 845 SET amplification Tannoy Kensington | |
| Teo XLR You're right - I have no business commenting on the speaker cables which I never heard.I did have the latest XLR ICs.It's only my personal opinion that they cannot survive at these price points without a more compelling story that reaches many mor... | |
| Teo XLR I've heard the 1M & 3M ICs.In many ways the most musically invovling sound I've ever heard from a cable.But when I found out their prices, I sent them back. I don't believe any company can survive at those price points, especially the speaker ... | |
| Thoughts on Audio Research D70 In the mid 80s, I used to put the D-70 on Quad 63s (with custom stands) for my clients.Sometimes used Entec subs, sometimes not.To this day, some of the most lifelike and stunningly involving music reproduction I was ever privileged to hear (withi... | |
| Opinions on Tannoy Canterbury SE? Mike,How close are you to Atlanta? | |
| Speakers sound best facing wall???? I meant to say face-down as the position that was least offensive for me from some speakers. | |
| Wilson Sasha or W/P match with Pass Labs XA-100 or XA-160 if you can afford themX-250.5 is still an awesome combo with them. | |
| Pass Labs XP 30 VS Ayre KXR Pre I've now heard these on several occasions.Depending on yor system/room interface, you might pick the Pass if you are looking for a slightly warmer forgiving sound.You might pick the Ayre if you are looking for a more dynamic, involving sound.Both ... | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow Agreed.Better dynamics will help most of the "high-end" spearkers out there, even the great ones. | |
| Room treatments - GIK Vs Acoustimac My only probelem with Acoustimac was that their quoted ship dare was not met, then not met the next day after I called and was promised it would go out, then not met for two more days.Guess I am old fashioned. Do what you say, and do what your say... | |
| Speakers sound best facing wall???? I've heard some speakers that I really prefer in that position. | |
| Your jaw dropping cables 1M & 3M Teo balanced XLR-XLR cables - for two reasons:1. Unexpectedly involving musical performance in a number of areas.2. At $5,000 for a 1M pair and $17,0000 for a 3M pair, jaw-dropping is a totally inadequate description of my reaction whe... | |
| Speaker spikes on concrete or wood floor best? My reasoning is simply from listening.Everyone who hears the comparison always agrees. A lot of head shaking goes on as people cannot believe they been led to believe this myth.The sound goes from tight "audiophile" bass to realistic sounding bass... | |
| Speaker spikes on concrete or wood floor best? No Spikes. Ever. Not turntables and definitely not speakers,no matter what is claimed for them. At least not where compellingly musical sound is concerned.And concrete is vastly inferior to wood as as surface to support real music.Should have said... | |
| What is the best amplifier for Tannoy Kensington ? I don't know what is the best, per se.I've had good luck driving my Canterburys with several amps.Does ss or tube make a difference to you? |
