| Help with speaker system for billiards room? Get some Gallo's. You know, the round ones. Then paint them to look like billiard balls. Fun and decent sounding to boot.Enjoy,Bob | |
| Has anyone compared the Joseph Audio Pearl Speaker Heard it compared to Avantgarde Duo's and Uno's. All were pretty amazing but very different. Funny thing that - we're all shooting for that sonic perfection. That "you are there" kind of sound. You would think that with this goal in mind these top... | |
| DAC under $550? Then there's the host of non-oversampling DAC's. They definitely have their own flavor but many, many consider them more musical overall. There's at least 10 I can think of for under $500. Do a search here, on Audio Circle and on Audio Asylum.Enjo... | |
| steps ahead I think the best album by the group was one of the last -- Vibe. Some of the earlier stuff sounds dated today. All good, but still a bit long in the tooth.Bob | |
| Speaker Sugestions Wanted $1500 max For $1500 I think your best bet is to look at several of the DIY kit speakers offered at madisound, Zalytron and several others. You will get much better sound for your $$$ than buying full retail or even used. Only problem is you can't hear them ... | |

| Given my AMP and DAC, which preamp? How about a modded Squeezebox II directly into the Dodson (nice DAC BTW). No need for a preamp unless you have something else to plug in.Enjoy,Bob | |

| A brutal review of the Wilson Maxx Perhaps he was turned down when he approached Wilson about advertising in his mag? Vitrolic? absolutely. Axe to grind? Perhaps.In either case I have also not been overly impressed with wilson speakers on the few occasions I've heard them. Certainl... | |
| Montana speakers, musical? Good Value???? You must hear them for yourself, just like any other speaker. In general I've found them to be very musical, with a softer top end than you will find on speakers having ribbons or metal tweeters. In that regard they are very enjoyable without fati... | |
