| Anyone hear Thiel CS1.6? I don't know what to tell you Drubin. We must have as opposite tastes as they come. Spendors are some of the most neutral, accurate and coherent speakers made. In particular, their midrange, soundstaging and vocals have few peers. You will rarely ... | |
| Anyone hear Thiel CS1.6? FWIW, I've heard the Totem Arro on a couple of occasions and was pleasantly surprised by the bass response. In almost all respects, I remember it being better than the Thiel 1.6. Totem's whole product line seems very impressive for the price. Lots... | |
| Anyone hear Thiel CS1.6? Frankly, this speaker (and probably the Wilson Audio Sophia) are two of the most overhyped speakers of the year. There are so many great speakers for the same or less money that it is irresponsible and irrational to hype these as new standards. On... | |
| Tubes Do It -- Transistors Don't. If all tube amps sounded the same and all SS amps sounded the same, then maybe this argument would have a verdict. Actually, it is the design and implentation of these technologies that make the most difference and should be debated.Even if you co... | |
| McCormack Preamp??? I've had the TLC-1 and currently own the RLD-1 with two DNA.5 Rev A (one is Rev A Gold).For the price, the RLD-1 is an exceptional performer, versatile and well made. It won't give you a tube sound (I'll tell you how to get that later), but it is ... | |
| New Spendor S9's seamless, very nice - I have the S9's and really can't summarize them any better than Spendor does on their website. They won me over after several months of auditioning similarly priced speakers from Magnepan, Thiel, Martin Logan, JMLabs, and Monitor Audio. It was the... | |
| Return to Audio: What Products to Consider? If you're looking for new equipment, the LFD Mistral integrated amp has gotten nothing but positive feedback from very respected people. Musical Fidelity products also tend to have the characteristics you mention.If you're looking for used gear, I... | |
| My new dedicated room sound like crap,please help. I hate to be pessimistic, but you have ALOT of obstacles to overcome. While the above suggestions will probably all help, an extremely small room with wood ceilings and tile floor is a heinous combo for listening (especially at loud levels).I thin... | |
| Amp Upgrade - 3k to 4k used? If you're eventually looking to upgrade to JMLabs Mezzo Utopia's, you may just want to save the $3-4k you're looking to spend on amps and allocate it to the JMLabs.I suspect the change in speakers will be much more dramatic then changing amps. Bes... | |
| Martin Logan Scenarios Positioning? Speaker positioning is critical with these and most electrostatics. The key is just to experiment alot because the size of your room and listening position will affect the proper placement. I think they sound best in a small room with a nearfield ... |
