| The next step to a better system meambler,You might not like my answer, since it will not answer your digital or analog side. I have found that two of the biggest improvements that you can get in a system are:1. Proper AND precise placements of loudspeakers in the room2. Room tre... | |
| Structural beam in middle of listening room I am with swampwalker. The beam in front would be a big issue, especially since the symmetry of the sound waves would be compromised. The beam behind your head is alright and you can manage with treating it with some sort of acoustic treatment.You... | |
| Need feedback on loudspeakers tdimler,That was supposed to happen today. Unfortunately could not go visit the local dealer who has them, I believe. But will certainly check them out. And yes, it is the same dealer from where I got my A21. Thanks for the recommendation. | |
| Need feedback on loudspeakers pennsy ,Also wanted to point out that most folks don't "get" the loudspeaker positions correct in their room. Precise measurements make a HUGE difference. Amplifiers are a distant third/fourth when compared to things like positioning your loudsp... | |
| Need feedback on loudspeakers Thanks knownothing.hm1, I am hoping to audition the Spendor at some point. Really interested. Way back in 2005, I spoke to a dealer in the Bay Area and for some reason he kind of said that Spendors have peculiar sound that you either like or don't... | |
| Need feedback on loudspeakers To an extent, yes stringreen. One thing is, because of the TVC, I really need to take care of the loudspeaker sensitivity. A loudspeaker with low efficiency might sound great in a system that has a powerful amp and an active linestage. But it migh... | |
| Need feedback on loudspeakers Any feedbacks from Revel/Audio Physic/PMC owners? | |
| Need feedback on loudspeakers dave_b,No issues at all. I found that a local dealer carries Totem and Revel. I will have a chance to compare the Totem Sigs to the Revel F208. I have heard Revels a long time back and do not recollect their signature sound. But I know many on thi... | |
| Need feedback on loudspeakers 2pysyop,Thank You for the recommendation of the Magnepans. I am sure they would sound good in the right system. For my requirements, they are simply too large a speakers and they are slightly less efficient than what I am looking for.dave_b,Don't ... | |
| Need feedback on loudspeakers Thanks for letting me know soix :-)dave_b,Last year I auditioned PSB Imagin3 T3 and the Totem Forest Sigs in DC area at the same dealer. I felt it was a unfair contest, since the PSBs were hooked up to the new NAD separates (M series) while the To... | |
| "High End" Bluetooth Receivers - Snake Oil? OP,I feel you should try the newer units from Auris, Arcam, Audioengine, etc. These are phenomenal units. I recently purchased the Auris bluMe for my system and I simply cannot stop streaming Spotify, FolkAlley, etc. I am amazed at the sound quali... | |
| Need feedback on loudspeakers carmenc,Thank You for letting me know about your speaker journey. If you were to go into a room like mine, which of the 2 speakers you would have preferred? The D20R or the DC8? I consider my room as medium, but some might call it small, and I wou... | |
| Need feedback on loudspeakers Paraneer,When I purchased the Parasound A21 locally, I found that one's room makes a HUGE difference. I was comparing the amp section of my then NAD C352 to the A21 at the dealers, and the "upgrade" in sound was alright. But when I got the amp hom... | |
| Need feedback on loudspeakers Paraneer,Your feedback on PSB vs Spendor is much appreciated. I am surprised that the Spendor sounded more full bodied than the PSB, since the PSBs have more drivers. You are correct on the Olympica III. They are rated at 35Hz. But the Spendors an... | |
| Need feedback on loudspeakers Paraneer,When I hear the Imagine T3, they had partnered it with the NAD. I feel digital amp tech has not yet caught with Class AB amplification. The Totem Forest Signatures were driven by some nice McIntosh. I felt that was the reason why the NAD ... |
