| Would you pay to audition speakers As kurk tank says, the problem for High End dealers is the dreamers and tyre kickers. Too many of us go for demos for a mornings enertainment and a free coffee. As far as I am concerned, I never trouble a dealer for a dem, unless I am at least pla... | |
| In Europe, owning Coincident Super Victory/ TV IV? Azh Yes that is the speaker. You may be correct, but I thought there were no major changes in the various Victory series speakers. I have just checked the website, you are correct, there is a different driver compliment. Appologies if I mislead yo... | |
| Koetsu vs Dynavector If anyone is interested in differences in Koetsus and indeed other cartridges, take a look at the 10audio site, lots of good sensible opinions, though only one persons of course. I used a Rosewood Signature bought second hand on the Gon for 3 year... | |
| In Europe, owning Coincident Super Victory/ TV IV? AZH, yes of course, they are at Shadow Audio in Glenrothies, near Perth and Edinburgh, if you were to fly in. Take the chance to look around the Scottish Highlands, the most beautiful scenery in the world IMHO. Delightful people to deal with and a... | |
| In Europe, owning Coincident Super Victory/ TV IV? I have been trying to audition the Super Victories also, I live in the UK. There is'nt a pair in the UK at the moment. The distributor would like to get a pair in, but in the current climate, there is little chance of selling a pair. There are a f... | |
| Raven One Motor Noise Problem I certainly can not hear anything at either speed, on mine. I suggest you ask the US importer, I understand he is very helpful and the company is very supportive too. | |
| Art Loudspeakers, upgraded Crossover components As I understand it, the origonal Emotion came as the Signature version. Art were persuaded to produce the cheaper version by dealers. I think the point of it, is to give you options and allow for later upgrades. Ponnie, the difference is not a sho... | |
| Any audiophile who is on blood pressure medication Indeed Jadem, good luck with your impending operation. You are right, that not everyone is salt sensitive. However on a population basis, I am not so sure. A study on Amazonian Indians some years ago, found there BP's were about 90/70 and they did... | |
| Tyler Decade D1s I am interested in the Tyler line, have been for years. Hoping to get to hear them at RMAF this year, if Ty is there. Coming over from the UK. Any thoughts on minimum amplifier output. I use a 22watt 845 SET, which I love. I suspect they would not... | |
| Wyetech or Coincident Frankenstein IIs Another thought, the UK importer of Avantgarde makes his own line of amps, Tron. You may have seen the name on Gon threads. I am not a fan of horns, a defect in my character I am sure, but they certainly made a nice sound with his amps at a recent... | |
| Linn LP-12 compared to TW Acustic, SME, Nottingham As you say keepitsimple, everyone has had and loved their LP12, I did. Is it up to other current models? No I do'nt believe it is. Moreover, the add ons like the Keel, Lingo, Circus bearings, are outrageously over priced and make a fully kitted ou... | |
| The Economy.. will hi end audio mfgs lower prices? Jimaxp, I agree there are real risks for main street hiFi stores, but there is a model for how to survive. The clue, bricks and mortar. In the UK, nearly all the independents have closed their stores and operate from home, or a small lock up indus... | |
| Classification of Benz Micro cartridges No-regrets, well the LP has been in place for a few days and I have to say, I could'nt be more pleased, even though it is still breaking in of course. There is always a risk with 2 components, that it sounds better, because it is new, but the LP s... | |
| Power conditioning Gbart: Nowone is telling Swall3 what to buy, just telling him what has worked for us, so he can consider auditioning them | |
| Travails of Adagio burn-in...include tweeters? I agree, mine did'nt click on and off in burn in, though thet did take 300 hours+. Sounds like a fault to me. |
