| REL Stadium and Rowland 201's setup -HELP This doesn't help. but I could never get satisfactory performance from a REL when I had a Pass X-150 amp. The REL worked, but not properly. And Sumiko was of very little help. The RELs appear to be somewhat fussy, I guess.I use 201's with Thiel 2.... | |
| REL Stadium and Rowland 201's setup -HELP You might want to call Rich Maez at Rowland, see what he says. The 201s use those newish Cardas binding posts that tighten down simultaneously on both + and - spade connections. Bananas aren't accomodated. | |

If I'm not mistaken, that would exclude most of the phase-and time coherent designers out there, including many models from Thiel (my 2.4's have a passive radiator and a Q of about .8), Vandersteen, Mea... | |
| Current Trends in multi thousand dollar speakers This sure is interesting. I wish you guys would name names, not to put down anyone but to help us get a better handle on the sonic implications of the various design choices you are describing. | |

| It's 2008 A remote controlled, low-profile, moving platform for positioning speakers. Very granular control side-to-side and front-to-back, with memory presets. Probably a rental.Also, a tonearm with remote controlled VTA. | |
| Current Trends in multi thousand dollar speakers Is multi-woofer the culprit? | |
| Current Trends in multi thousand dollar speakers Are you saying that the response must be flat in order to be accurate? Which speakers out there are flat? | |
| Current Trends in multi thousand dollar speakers Sean, are the response graphs you refer to from JA's measurements? Aren't those in-room and not anechoic?From the year or so I lived with TacT room correction, I know that big bass humps are the norm "in room" and also that a flat response in the ... |
