| Cannot find perfect sound If you are going to be listening in one spot, I think the Sanders Sound 10E with proper amplification is worth investigating. | |
| Cannot find perfect sound You may be looking for efficiency and dynamics. I would suggest listening to something such as: Volti VittoraPBN M2!5JBL Everest DD6700Wilson Maxx 2Heck maybe even some Tekton Double Impact? | |
| DIY - Two kits using similar tweeter to Tekton Eric, The pair I'm considering are already built; I would be buying used from the guy that built the kit.Thanks,Keith | |
| Advice for killer desktop speakers I enjoy the AVI ADM9.1. Kinda big for a desktop, but not bad.DAC, Subwoofer out, DSP crossover before the amp(s), A/D conversion. Great guy at Overture too. Newest version:http://www.overture-audio.com/product_lines/avi/html/ADM_9RSS.html | |
| Wilson Audio SOPHIA II"s or III"s; good or bad passion.;on CJ gear ? I have the W/P 5.1s and though detailed, would not consider them bright (which I define as upper midrange glare or treble prominence/imbalance).. However, I bought mid-range MIT speaker cables (HD-60), so they probably go a long way to reduce wha... | |
| DIY - Two kits using similar tweeter to Tekton Thanks much Erik. The pair I'm looking at have the 'upgraded crossover' - (I assume Madisound's definition) although I'm not sure exactly what parts that might mean. The review I read (audioexpress?) focused more on the 2.5 way floorstander. Did... | |
| DIY - Two kits using similar tweeter to Tekton Hello Erik,I'm considering the Ara speaker (with the beryllium tweeter) for a 2nd system. I am not a big fan of B&W or Dynaudio house sound (haven't heard the GoldenEar). I would be interested to hear more details about your thoughts on the Ar... | |
| Speaker alternatives Not sure where you are located, but you should try to go to an audio show like Rocky Mountain Audio Fest in Colorado, or Axpona coming up next month in Chicago, and identify speakers that really knock you out. Keeping in mind 1) the room you're g... | |
| re capping Thanks teo. Yeah, they sound very good already; just wondering out loud mostly. :) Only one of the surrounds really needed addressing with the refoam. I just wanted to do all four all at once, since the foam felt more dry than supple on all of them. | |
| re capping I realize most of the discussion here has been regarding amplifier caps. Has anyone recapped or otherwise modded the crossover in the older Wilson Audio speakers? I'm having the woofers refoamed in a pair of 5.1s, and wondered since the drivers w... | |
| MQA•Foolish New Algorithm? Vote! Thanks jon2020 for the clarification. The demo I heard was back and forth, through the same dac (Ayre I believe)Regards | |
| MQA•Foolish New Algorithm? Vote! Only heard MQA/non MQA a/b demoed one time. Constellation electronics driving Magico speakers. To my ears, there was a slight preference for the MQA. JMO | |
| Speaker Suggestions for 300b SET Amp +1 Coincident+1 Reference 3AGR Research Super V - The Super-V has 97db sensitivity and is an easy 8 ohm load. They can be driven easily with even the lowest wattage amplifiers because it only has to drive the upper coaxial driver. The two 12" SERV... | |
| Seeking Speaker Recommendations I have PMC PB1i.I would look for a pair of OB1s.Another option is something like a GR Research Super V. A pair or two for sale over on audiocircle. Finally, there's a pair of Von Schweikert VR5 HSE as well for around $3K. | |
| Power Cord Sounds like the Sablon is a good match for your application. Nice! |
