| Cones vs. factory spikes? JD; you are correct. I just mentioned J. Dunlavys's comments because he is a well respected speaker manufacturer, and I found his position regarding spikes "interesting".Until a few weeks ago, I didn't even know Dunlavys weren't spiked. I personal... | |
| Best headphones under 800.00 USD I own the Sennheiser 600s and also the 580s, and have listened to many others. On balance, I agree with Sdcampbell's comments about the 600's. The 600s are smooth and relaxing yet detailed-- also comfortable for long term listening. Cheers, and Go... | |
| Cones vs. factory spikes? Ikarus; you're right, it is complicated. I recently called Dunlavy Labs and ended up talking to John Dunlavy himself. I asked him why he did not put spikes/cones on Dunlavy speakers and he said "because they don't measure as well as without" (he w... | |
| Best Thread in Audiogon. Hi Kareoke; Audiogon is a large diverse community of individuals with a common interest, but only connected via the internet. I like the "Who R U" thread where we have an opportunity to get to know a little more about each other.I keep going back ... | |
| Cowboy Junkies Fans........ Hi Audioxcel; There is a Cowboy Junkies Video on VHS that was done fall 2000. They were not backed by an orchestra though-- it was just the regular band performing in a small venue. The tape is available from www.maplemusic.com or www.cowboyjunkie... | |
| I am stunned Hi Dekay; re your last 4/19 post: I suppose an internal biwire could be connected as you suggest, eg to compare single wire vs biwire, but I think the results would only be valid for that particular set up. R. Vandersteen says true biwiring is pre... | |
| I am stunned Dekay; don't read too much into my agreement with Redkiwi. It's as Paulwp said, I agree with the "spirit" of Redkiwi's post. Otherwise, IMO, in the near term, we've had enough of going around and around around about AB testing, ABX testing, scienc... | |
| I am stunned My take too Redkiwi, nice post. Craig | |
| Too snobbish for SACD as it exists? Sean; we were posting at the same time. As you can see, I agree with your position. Craig | |
| Too snobbish for SACD as it exists? I have used the Sony XA7ES and CA9ES CD players in a fairly high end system, and can say that the XA7 is an especially good product-- built like a tank and excellent music quality. I would have no problem setting a good Sony SACD player next to, e... | |
| Sonic Frontiers Tech Support is Great Weiserb; that has been my experience too. Both Nick Platsis and Douglas Brown are great to deal with. Cheers. Craig | |
| Cowboy Junkies Fans........ Kelly; I pretty much live out in the boondocks, and it seems it takes at least 10 days to two weeks to get anything form Sonic Frontiers-- must be near Cowboy Junkies home base. But you're right, I'm anxious to hear their new CD. Pops, never heard... | |
| SACD Going Mainstream? Does anyone know how many SACD titles (approx.) are presently available? Thanks. Craig. | |
| How much time do u spend listening. Hi Ssomsit; yes this topic has been covered before, but I think it's one of those subjects that needs to be brought up every once in awhile. I listen 3-5 hours every evening, sometimes while doing light reading. What I find interesting is the many... | |
| What is a "Redbook" CD player? Chstob; Sorry I didn't catch your question re "it" sooner in my above post. Yes, "it" refers to HDCD. Craig |
