| Morrow SP7 Upgrade. I just got an email from Morrow yesterday informing me that the cables are in the mail. Right now I'm assuming that they are shipping both together, they should be here by October 2, so under a month with the MA5 and a ten day break in service. | |
| Do I have to spend $4000 plus to get a better sounding speaker than GET model 7 ? The number one reason why speakers can start to sound edgy, barring system incompatibility, is over driving the receiver or amp. The receiver or amp being used is CRUCIAL to the conversation, and could well be why rackon preferred the GET speaker... | |
| Best Budget RCA cables You don't have to be in the room as the system is playing. Since you mentioned a harsh sound, I'd stay out too. Run one of your systems about 4-5 hours a day with the cables breaking in, and keep track so you know when you've reached 50 hours. ... | |
| My Parasound A21 review and VS Emotiva XPA Here’s the thing about Emotiva. Just look at the situation with the XPR line. Any basic market research would raise red flags for a company trying to decide if they should manufacture an amp line weighing so much. Research would tell them that the... | |
| Do I have to spend $4000 plus to get a better sounding speaker than GET model 7 ? Sunny, if you are sensitive to the edgy highs, I would add another to your short list. Ascend Acoustics Tower could definitely be an upgrade. They image superbly and with the Raal ribbon tweeter give pinpoint imaging but are not sharp or edgy, a... | |
| Ugly vs Gogeous speakers I agree Tannoys can be nice, some of their Definition series is quite good to me.Those Duevel Planets are something completely different, quite a conversation piece! | |
| My Parasound A21 review and VS Emotiva XPA Well that's great, except Emotiva did their usual behaviour and retired the XPR line some years ago now. No one can buy them. They've done this with line after line, amp after amp and product after product.Why would they retire the XPR line. An... | |
| Ugly vs Gogeous speakers Wolfe_g, my wife is the same. Although when I switched from towers to standmounts in my theater, she didn't quite care for that. Her hearing is quite sensitive, but she just doesn't care about audio whatsoever. | |
| Phono cable recommendations - high performance good value cable I found this thread doing a search on the KLE silver rca plugs. Williwonka's post above is exactly my situation. I've purchased Stager silver solid ic's and recently found their limits. They are solid core conductors, but I'm still getting some... | |
| Tekton Double Impact & Comb Filtering Sean, sorry about this odd little diatribe. What a strange conversation. I’ll just ignore such foolishness in the future, hopefully such petty personal attacks are refrained from.I think you’e right, indeed Tekton doesn’t mention anything about an... | |
| Ugly vs Gogeous speakers I think it could be said that some speaker designs are quite unusual in appearance. One either likes it or hates it. Other designs are quite conservative which equates to boring, the boxy design with a narrow width and longer depth made out of s... | |
| how much should you spend on cable? 1) Russel is a quack. It’s easy to hear differences in cables.2) It’s time for Audiogon to make it impossible to add posts to threads that have been dormant for over 5 years. This 15 year old thread should have stayed dormant. | |
| Quicksilver Gold contact enhancer Sorry, I'd never heard of it. | |
| 2017 vs. 1990s - How far we have come Yep, great SQ can be had for so much less these days. I wish I had the time to listen as I did when I was young. | |
| Quicksilver Gold contact enhancer What a great idea for a product, because deoxit may clean things up, but I don't think it enhances the connection like this stuff. |
