| Do Bigger Speakers Mean a Bigger Window? Looks like there have been various interpretations of the OP’s question.One thing I’ve noticed is that, yes, in generally bigger speakers sound bigger. Not just the size of the soundstage, but the size of the sonic images and the sense of actual p... | |
| Thiel Owners ^^^^ Hey, who let the riff-raff back in here?No turncoats allowed! Well, seeing as you like CJ gear we can still talk. ;-)That CJ ET3 looks nice!I consider my CJ Premier 12 amps and Premier 16LS2 preamp my secret weapons. They are "organic sound... | |
| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers So with a bit of time off work, I'm deciding on my speaker purchase this month, hopefully within the next 2 weeks. Tomorrow or Friday I intend to re-visit the Joseph Perspectives which I haven't heard in a long time now. Then it will probably be... | |
| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers ^^^^ (btw...the post removed above was just a duplicate post). | |
| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers I don't have a second wife; maybe that's why I can afford to audition these speakers ;-) | |
| Thiel Owners Jeff,Congrats on the Revel speakers. They have such good engineering (and science) behind them that it's almost a sure bet a Revel speaker will produce excellent sound. While we may hear they are not to everyone's taste, it's very rare to see s... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? Funny how the complaint of people have an "axe to grind" only ever goes one way on this forum.Always aimed at someone who may be more skeptical about the claims of cable manufacturers. But if you fall in line with "of course cables make a differen... | |
| Thiel Owners The other thing about the coax driver design in both the 3.7 and the 2.7 is the coherency achieved! Try as I might I just can not "hear out" any tweeter sound from the midrange. It just sounds perfectly meshed together. Even the most challengi... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? rja,Someone with the relevant expertise in EE could certainly predict to a significant degree what you hear. People in audio do it all the time. In my work in post production sound, if I couldn’t predict what you hear my job would be impossible (g... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? rhartshorn,Just to make it clear (if it wasn’t already): I’m not an engineer myself and therefore no expert on cables. I remain skeptical about many of the claims made by high end cable manufacturers, but open minded to the possibility some cables... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? calvinj,It seems to me, at least thus far, that you only wanted a one-way conversation: you telling us cables make a difference, asking what we thought, but not really caring and implying critical questions are just jibber jabber. Did you not thin... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? nonoise,I don't think your analogy quite gets around my point.If you had a richly detailed Ansel Adams photo, and took a picture of it with a newer camera producing a new version, every bit of detail you swoon about when looking at that photo spe... | |
| Thiel Owners jafant,I have the MFSL gold CD for SNF and, yeah, it was a GREAT CD version.I haven't really investigated the best pressings for SNF in vinyl - picked this one up at a record show and was told by someone in the know it's the most recent release. | |
| Talk but not walk? Thanks for the kind words, folks.Everybody: Welcome to the "faker/talker/troll" club now, I guess ;-)Too bad MG won’t ever let himself acknowledge I (or others he’s called trolls) may have sincerely said or asked anything reasonable. But he went ... | |
| Thiel Owners This thread reminds me of talking about your kids to your spouse.You can’t really go on about how wonderful your kids are to anyone else. It would make them puke. But your spouse is someone who shares your feelings for your kids, so you can tell t... |
