| Tight accurate midfield monitor pair suggestions If possible, I would try to hear the Induction Dynamics 2-way monitors. I heard them once in Florida and they are very impressive. Just a thought. | |
| Clayton M200s and Single ended preamps Very interesting outcome of that test between the two Jensen pieces. Don't expect me to study the Jensen pdf spec sheet to figure it out though..... Also, forgive my ignorance, but is the Jensen piece something you feed the unbalanced preamp into,... | |
| Review: Tube Research Labs Dude Tube preamp I had had the mistaken idea that this unit was closer to $5K, and I was STILL thinking of checking it out. At $3500, it's even MORE tempting. Thanks, "Dude." Even though I'm already satisfied......still......didn't regret upgrading to Chimera cabl... | |
| Review: Tube Research Labs Dude Tube preamp Outstanding review! Your mention of the "incredible bass and dynamic range" of this piece under listening vignette #5 is very highly appreciated, at least by me. My main "phobia" regarding tube amps or preamps has been the potentially anemic bass ... | |
| Review: Intuitive Design/Pitcher Sound Labs Summit PSL 624 Speaker Hi Rick,I bought the Signal Cable upgraded Speakon cable and I've never regretted purchasing it. I can't say that I've done any back and forth A-B testing versus the stock cable; instead I just put it in and never took it out to check for the impr... | |
| Speakers for the ears, eyes, and for the decade Hmmm, it sounds like you'd be able to post a very nice Virtual System. Just a thought. | |
| Dynamat on speaker stands - WOW This makes sense to me. When I had a high end audio system in my van, dynamat lining the door panels was very helpful. Your idea of using it on the home speaker stands is a clever one, and something many may not have thought of. The price is right... | |
| Salvaging worn cd's... I've seen at least one CD store using the same type of system that Ml8764ag describes. Ml8764ag: Thanks for the link. It's bookmarked now. | |
| Review: Tube Research Labs M-225 mono blocks Amplifier That's the answer I expected, and I believe you. It's also good sign when people favorably compare these to such iconic names as Gryphon, etc. I'm still very happy with my Odyssey amp and preamp, but the TRLs are now on the short list should I eve... | |
| Review: Tube Research Labs M-225 mono blocks Amplifier It sounds like these are stellar amps. Is there any Achilles heel, like anemic bass, etc.? It sounds like the answer will be "No" but your thoughts would be appreciated. Another A'gon-izer whose opinion I highly respect is also intrigued by these. | |
| Is there a truly musical multiple CD player? The Onkyo Integra DPC 8.5 is a 6 disc changer universal player that will decode SACD. It was about $700. The DPC 8.5 has a button to bypass all video circuitry, and this improves sonic detail. It's not bad, but (from what I've been told) would be ... | |
| Vienna Die Muzick flagship speakers The primary driver pictured in the ads for the Die Muzick speakers vaguely reminds me of the Manger (sp?) driver used in the Audio Physic Medea and the Overkill Audio speakers. Whether there's more than a superficial similarity is unclear to me. P... | |
| Vienna Die Muzick flagship speakers "And if you were asking, the answer is a very sad NO. . . my wife won't let me buy them! G."Dude! Don't be expecting too much sympathy from this crowd when you already own a smokin' pair of the Mahlers! You're just going to have to suffer...Yeah, ... | |
| Best U.S.A. speakers? Agree with Agear on Intuitive Design. |
