| Frequency Response Measurement Question Good comments - It is possible that things moved inches. I also have noticed the effect of my body position on the high frequencies. I will go back and try some different positions to see if the 2k problem is placement.I spent all day today workin... | |
| Do I need a power cable - if so what brand? I recently changed amplifiers and have been a bit dissapointed with the results of the upgrade. Rather than run out and buy a bunch of expensive cables, I am pursuing tweaks such as Room acoustics and power. I admit to being very skeptical about s... | |
| Most overlooked part of your system? Tvad - great response, I find a margarita really opens up my system, much more transparent, on a serious note - I think all audiophiles should read Oliver Sach's recent book "Musicophilia". It is a great study in how much our experience of music i... | |
| Integrated for Green Mountain - Classe, Bel Canto Yes, Roy recommended I look at the Edge - I am just really on a budget as I am in the middle of a career change, in a couple of years, the whole kit is getting upgraded anyway! | |
| Integrated for Green Mountain - Classe, Bel Canto Thanks for all your responses - after a lot of research, I decided on the Simaudio I-5 as a great match for the GMA's. I have to say also, that not only are the Green Mountain's amazing speakers but Roy, the designer and the owner is a terrific gu... | |
| Integrated for Green Mountain - Classe, Bel Canto Garyralph,thanks for your input on the Eico, I did read the article. I think that I am probably to lazy to deal with finicky and really need a remote! Simaudio I-5 keeps coming up on the reviews - anyone have experience with it?drew. | |
| Integrated for Green Mountain - Classe, Bel Canto The Ayre seemed like the ideal amp but it has no pre-outs at all. That is a big problem as I run a sub with my GMA's. | |
| Integrated for Green Mountain - Classe, Bel Canto Thanks for the feedback, I will look into the Eico.I am using the Europa's but am hoping to find a pair of Callistos. Slowly moving up the chain! | |
| Experience wit MMGs and Monarchy SM70 I heard a pair of Maggies with SM70's while auditioning the Monarchy DAC24 with Mr. Poon in San Francisco. The SM70's were driven by the tube pre-amp of the DAC24. Unfortunately I don't know which model the maggies were (I suspect an older version... | |

I hope everyone on this forum realizes how involved you are in the community and how much time and energy you put into su... | |
| Subwoofer Frequency Response question Thanks for all the suggestions. I am using the Rives CD with 1/3 octave tones calibrated for the RS Meter. I am going to check out the realtraps site. Using this, I was also able to find a wire vibrating inside the speaker at mid-range frequencies... | |
| Speaker Stands adapters for Heavy Speakers? This is an interesting topic - Roy, the designer of Green Mountain recommends Blu-tak to decrease resonance from the stands. Green Mountain's cabinets are made from Q-stone and have low resonance.I also found this article http://www.stereophile.co... | |
| Speaker Stands adapters for Heavy Speakers? Thanks for feedback. I am planning on using blu-tak. It sounds as though it holds well enough to secure the speakers. Thanks for the suggestion about the lead, I think I will try that as well.Drew. |
