| Home owner's insurance question The overriding thought about insurance is to put you back as you were before the loss, nothing less or nothing more. While your home (the structure, otherwise thought of as anything you’d leave behind if you moved), is covered as all risk. Let’s ... | |
| Value of upgrading only 1 set of interconnects? @dorkwad - Well said, Bob. | |
| Vienna Acoustics 'The Music' Audio Consultants in Evanston, IL has a pair of Vienna Acoustic The Music in their high end listening room powered (at the time) by a pair of Ayre monoblocks. They sounded pretty incredible to me. The only thing negative I can say is that this dea... | |
| The KEF LS50 price drop has me considering a small system for my office. Suggestions? @jetter - I've been watching the interview videos, but I missed this one. Sounds interesting.@mapman - Thank for your response and explanation. Makes sense. I'm willing to put the right amp with the LS50 to get the most out of them. I thought ... | |
| The KEF LS50 price drop has me considering a small system for my office. Suggestions? @oregonpapa - leaning towards Sound Anchor stands. I'll take performance over looks every time.@audiotroy - have read about the Uniti Atom, but thought the LS50 would respond better to more power. Will look into that other option. Appreciate th... | |
| Full range tower speakers with bass under $10k I've auditioned at least a dozen tower loudspeakers in and around $10K and up. Of those, the speakers that had decent base and hover around or at $10K, are the Magico A3, Revel PerformaBe F228Be, and the Legacy Audio Focus SE, in my opinion. | |
| Why so many wilson alexias for sale Clinical line of product from the get go. That results in listening fatigue and eventual realization that they pale next to many other speakers in their price range.@dobnbav I am a fan of the Wilson sound. To what speakers in their price range a... | |
| Music streamer with no DAC and no storage? What about the Bricasti Model 5 Network Player? It has USB. | |

| Any love for Rogue Audio Apollo Dark monoblocks? @stevecham Thanks for the response. I have the Manley Shinook SE phono stage. Didn't even know that Manley made monoblocks. Interesting. | |
| Wilson Audio Sabrina . . . I'm smitten. Should I consider others? Auditioned two more from my list, the Magnepan 20.7 and the Legacy Aries. Was also able to hear the Magico A3, albeit not yet fully broken in. Auditioned the Maggies in a less than desirable situation. Small room with the speakers only spread abou... | |
| Road trip to demo $10,000 speakers I am in the process of doing something similar. Not that you asked, but here is my advice. Call ahead to these dealers. Tell them what you’d like to hear. Ask them what source they use for demos and/or ask them if they can have your preferred sour... | |
| "The End of The Road" What are you driving them with and what is your favorite source? Thanks in advance. | |
| Wilson Audio Sabrina . . . I'm smitten. Should I consider others? @mcreyn Great points. I especially need to burn a CD as I've relied on a Tidal playlist and encountered two dealers that couldn't access Tidal when I went to audition. Which Maggies do you have now? | |
| Wilson Audio Sabrina . . . I'm smitten. Should I consider others? @jafant Nope. I had to travel to hear almost everything. I travel for work anyway. |
