| Need new tweeters for Focal 1007Be Why don't you try calling a Focal dealer? I think that they stopped selling their drivers to other companies a couple of years ago. | |
| Gryphon vs. McIntosh Kwb,Which models of Gryphon and McIntosh do you, or have you owned? | |
| JA Perspecitve Stereophile review I just read it the night before last as I was listening to music before bed. I have never heard them, but have heard the Pearls a few years back, which I thought were very nice.I have read so much hype and enthusiasm for the Perspectives, I was al... | |
| Rack Recommendations Well stated Samhar, Thanks. | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? "I know it's completely unrealistic for me to ever own but it was the best pair of speakers I've ever heard."Sjc1204What speakers are you talking about? | |
| Review Stillpoints Ultra Mini Jwm,I agree with you somewhat. Not too many audio pieces or accessories are beautiful, but if they are designed well for their intended purpose, without superfluous doo-dads just for effect, they can have their own utilitarian beauty. The particul... | |
| Review Stillpoints Ultra Mini "For me it is a pre."Do you mean for you it is a prerequisite?In any case, I appreciate audio jewelry as much as the next guy, but not enough to pay the prices that they charge for performance that is the same or even not as good. | |

| Rack Recommendations Schubert,Keep your $1,500 and donate it to one of your charities. Your statement that your Salmander with all of those footers etc. beats a higher grade stand may be less than the educated guess that you said it was in a previous post.Besides, wit... | |
| What time do you wear? Hi Schubert,Sorry for the confusion. I was actually referring to the comment about all watches telling the same time, regardless of cost.I am sorry that you feel religious guilt concerning material possessions, and I'm not sure of what you mean wh... | |
| Rack Recommendations Schubert,In that case, since my own personal experience with racks is that spending $1,500 - $2,000 makes a very audible and worthwhile difference, I will have to respectfully disagree with you on this one. | |
| What time do you wear? Schubert,Yes, they are both unecessary luxuries which cost money, but that is not how you framed the comparison in your original comment. | |
| Rack Recommendations Schubert,If a 2% improvement was a quantifiable subjective improvement over a rack that cost let's say $250.00, then I can see someone thinking that it it doesn't represent good value. The question is of course, where are you getting the 2% figure... | |
| What time do you wear? Schubert,The enjoyment factor for those who own one or more better watches comes from a deep appreciation of the quality, craftsmanship and science involved in the making of the movement, as well as the artistry in the design of the case, and the ... |
