RMAF 2016................Boenicke W5
Charles, I heard the Raidho 2's at the show? they were big speakers anyway at the show, whilst I liked their sound and stayed for a whole song, the ahem W5's were musically better, in that the Instruments and vocals sounded more real with an uncan...

Hi Charles, I have not read the 6moon review, but I will for sure. I think darts are being thrown without a dart board in sight with regards to some posts. It is good to have a lively debate on a subject closer to our hearts rather than our ears. ...

The W5's are the smallest speakers in the range.The Peachtree room on the Mezzanine floor had the loudest demo that I heard, to loud for me, although the sound was quite good.I liked the Mackintosh room to especially the fish spinning on the turnt...

RMAF 2016................Boenicke W5
Hi John,I believe they are made with a solid piece of wood. The Innards look like someone was having fun with a router. I won't be buying a pair as I have enough (ahem, hope she does not read this....) speakers in the house. Another, and the most ...

step inside Klipsch fans and fanatics
I have just purchased an unmodified cheap as chips used pair of Klipschorns. They suit my ears and wallet for most sounds, although for rock/Indie/goth genre's of music I  prefer my Oris 150 horn loudspeakers.  
Best Turntable for the Price - Linn Basik
I personally think dealers advertising their wares in a discussion is ok, they have disclosed a disclaimer after all. No one is holding a gun to someone's head forcing them to buy it. The price of the TT1SE turntable sure looks a good buy pricewis... 
What in the world is going on.....
"This has been one of my complaints that as your system evolves (improves) some poor recordings sound worse "eh?surely, everything should sound better, no? 
Loudspeakers have we really made that much progress since the 1930s?
I personally think technology has Improved for boxed speakers. I had a pair of Linn Isobariks DMS speakers, which were considered up there with the best available back in the 1970's/ 80's. Today I think they are bested by the ELAC cheap as chips r... 
klipschorns, they kick ass for sure
Tomtab; I am not sure if there are many out here who really care whether Klipschorns are considered 'High End' loudspeakers or not, or indeed your passion for them. Why do you care about other audio'piles' views? Its not going to change your belie... 
Magnepan MMG........amazing
An AV reviewer in a blind listening test that was in the Magnepan room at a Hi-Fi show said ' it is the best sound he had heard at the show so far', he was listening to a pair of MMG's and two Magnepan DWM panels which cost a mere $2375...... 
Magnepan's 1.7i c/w 2 DWM bass panels v 3.7i
