| Forte FP1 night and day difference...ok but which is the night and which is the day? I have a pristine FP1 I've owned for nearly 15 years and am more than a little curious just how good it is...thanks. | |
| VR-5 Anniversary VS Sasha I own the VR5 Annies and don't agree with your comment regarding the fit and finish. I find it quite beautiful and the VSA sound is much less fatiguing that ANY Wilson I have heard to date (WP7&8, Sasha and Sophia). The metal tweeter makes my ... | |
| Is McIntosh a stepping stone into HI/FI? I've found that MAC electronics match up with any speaker you can throw at them. Other amps having higher resolution?...that's what everyone seems to say but the many A/B comparisons I have witnessed hasn't proven that. You can spend more for sure... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? I'd have to say Barack Obama.. | |
| Audio Art Cable SC-5SE Speaker Cable I would be remiss if I didn't mention Scott Warren from Texas way. Scott is the MIT dealer who sent me the loaner MAs. I purchased two pairs of MIT XLRs from him last year and was afforded an attractive discount plus a generous return policy. Scot... | |
| Speaker cabinet construction.. Shadorne,Being a retired EE and putzing around with this hobby for over 40 years, no one is more skeptical than I am....trust me...so believe me when I tell you that Albert Von Schweikert, the "mad scientist", would NEVER put form above function. ... | |
| Speaker cabinet construction.. Not sure this can truly be considered a white paper as it was originally penned on parchment. | |
| Speaker cabinet construction.. Shadorne,That's quite a conclusion you've jumped to. Am I sensing a history with VSA? I think it's fair to say that a paper regarding cabinet resonances can be written without the inclusion of porting. That's a different can of worms altogether. A... | |
| Speaker cabinet construction.. All the VSA speakers are ported, either front or rear, and employ a tunable transmission line woofer cabinet. The speakers can be tuned to the room by adding dacron filling to or subtracting from the port tube. The speaker can effectively become a... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Best speaker I have ever heard? There are tons out there that I haven't heard but two that I have heard; the pair that I now own, the VSA VR5 Anniversaries and the Magico V3s...I can speak to how they compare. I have heard both driven by MAC elect... | |
| CAT Legend vs WAVAC PR-T1 ? Better yet, buy solid state. | |
| How does smoke effect speakers? Smoke effects the listener more than the speaker especially the kind of smoke they blow at most high end stores. | |
| Usher 6371 vs Von Schweikert VR4jr I don't own the JRs but own the SR MKIIs with MC501 monoblocks and can say without hesitation, no subwoofer necessary! The bass response is indeed very dependent on the speaker position. I have the about 4' from front and side walls and slightly t... | |
| Best speaker for vocals Any speaker made by Von Schweikert is great on vocals but also huge soundstage, pristine non-fatiguing highs and tight, powerful bass; integration of drivers mimics the ideal single driver point source. Go hear them if you get the chance. | |
| Anyone heard the Von Schweikert Unifield 3? Thanks for the correction johnny.bonehead |
