| The Magnificent Magnepan 30.7 speakers....wait, I don’t like planars! With the sheer size of these speakers, very few people have the room to accommodate them.

| New D'Agostino Monoblocks...$250,000 Friends and guests ask me what my rig costs all the time. I've never told anyone what my stuff costs. Anyone that knows audio already knows or have a pretty good idea what it costs, and won't be taken aback.Anyone who doesn't know audio wouldn't... | |
| New D'Agostino Monoblocks...$250,000 LP, ...at 485 pounds, it’s going to take 6 men to move that thing around in a room. | |
| New D'Agostino Monoblocks...$250,000 .slimkikins5...If a guy can afford $250k for a pair of amps, he really doesn't need to worry about resale value. Guys that buy Rolls Royces don't worry about resale value, because they already know that in 10 years, the car will be worth one eigh... | |

| New D'Agostino Monoblocks...$250,000 .I wonder how those $150,000 Master Reference monoblocks are holding up that Dan produced at Krell 15 years ago?Any electronic equipment costing that much has to have a lifetime guarrantee justify its price. | |
| New D'Agostino Monoblocks...$250,000 Anyone care to estimate how many pairs of these per year will be sold?How many pairs do you think he needs to sell to break even? | |
| thoughts on new Adcom 585SE I haven’t heard them, but they seem ideal if you have a need for power and if your speakers have a demanding load. I read a review somewhere that they are rock solid stable down to 2 ohms.Yes, I would buy them. | |
| From Four 12 inch Woofers To Eight 12 inch Woofers, Will I Get Deeper Bass Or More Bass? 68pete, according to all the posts I’ve read here on the ’Gon regarding integrating subs into full range speakers seamlessly, it sounds damn near impossible. This is for 2-channel listening only...this is not a home theater application. | |
| From Four 12 inch Woofers To Eight 12 inch Woofers, Will I Get Deeper Bass Or More Bass? jafant...I'm very familiar with the Kappa 9 and the power that they require. That won't be a problem. I still have the Pass amps.The whole reason for this approach is to get more bass in the room to emulate the Infinity IRS Beta speakers that I ... | |
| Pairing Planar Speakers With A Subwoofer (Eminent Technology) Ctsooner...I went to the Vandersteen web page and did not see the model you speak of. Please provide a link to this sub. | |
| Thad Jones Charles1dad, my current trumpet faves are Lee Morgan, Freddie Hubbard, Blue Mitchell, early 60's Donald Byrd and of course Miles. The catalogs of just this handful of guys as leaders and as sidemen is exhaustive.I've heard of Kenny Dorham and Fat... | |
| Thad Jones Charles1dad, I work from home and have jazz in the background all day. I've listened to jazz all my adult life...a lot. I've heard a LOT of jazz. In the beginning my only exposure to jazz was jazz radio. If the DJ's didn't play it, I didn't he... | |
