| Remedy for Spendor sub 60Hz deficiency? Get a sub. Bass is what they're made for. Used REL or velo will do the trick | |

| Sonus Faber Sound? To throw a different opinion in the mix - I am not a fan of the Sonus Faber sound. I have had extensive auditions with: GPH, original GP, Concertos, Concertinos, Cremonas, Cremona auditors. All different electronics, tubes and ss. Though there are... | |

| B&W 802D vs Wilson WATT Puppy Jungsan - I've seen the Sophias in a metallic-blue color that looks stunning and would be my first choice at this point. It might be the sebring blue on their website. The cosmetics of Wilson speakers were an aquired taste for me. They seem strang... | |

| Help with Kilpsch KLF30 rattling cabinet My first pair of speakers were the klipsch klf20. Heard them at tweeter - what a great sound. DYnamic as hell. I don't think tweeter carries anything as good as these anymore. (except the MLs - but they don't have any amps nice enough for MLs) | |
| Quad ESL 989 and Maggie 3.6s Jeffreybehr - I looked at your system as well... You've got some nice stuff, but you've got to clear out the space between / behind those Quads of yours! I can't imagine how there could be a soundstage without any space behind/between the quads. T... | |
| Quad ESL 989 and Maggie 3.6s HighDungeon - Put a pair of Quads or Maggies next to a big pair of wilsons or Dynaudios. Play some dynamic rock or jazz music. You will near night-and-day differences in dynamic capabilities between the planars and the boxes. Granted, you'll also ... | |
| How would you desribe Von Schweiket VR-4jr sound? Snook - You are telling me that the VS VR4JR has superior bass than the Piega C10ltd? Couldn't be more the other way around in my experience. While I ultimately found the Piegas too lacking in dynamics for my taste, I thought they excelled in bass... | |
| How would you desribe Von Schweiket VR-4jr sound? Snook - I would be interested in what $20K speakers have worse bass than the VR4JRs in your opinion. Wilson Watt Puppy 7s? Avalalon Eidolons? Dynaudio C4s? Verity Parsifal Encores? JM Lab Alto Utopias? B&W Sig 800s? Piega C8ltd?If so, I would ... |
