| Reference 3A De Capo BE Review I've had my de Capo's for about a year and a half now; installed the BE tweets six months ago or so and can't testify to a startling difference, but a pleasant one nonetheless.These speakers are a keeper for me for a long time. | |
| How quiet is your Rogue Sphinx? So let me get this straight: any hum or hiss you hear becomes inaudible once the music starts playing? When you're actively/critically listening, can you discern a sonic deterioration because of the hiss/hum? If not, stop micro-managing and enjoy ... | |
| Shrinking my system Actually, I'd agree with Zd who suggested to wait and check out the apartment and surroundings and wall surfaces and neighbors and such before commiting to anything. de Capo's are unparalleled for their price; Triangles work well with tubes, as do... | |
| Shrinking my system The Rogue/Triangle coupling is a good, small system. | |
| What should I sell these for used here? Buyers? This entire forum needs serious updating. We need threaded responses, quote/multi-quote options, likes, flags, member-based moderation; you know, something less 2004 and more 2014. | |
| What should I sell these for used here? Buyers? And I'm curious as to why you haven't listened to the system at all since you bought it. What's the point?And I'm also thinking this could be a troll. | |
| What should I sell these for used here? Buyers? Agreed with Czar. And you'd be better selling on ebay or craigslist. The T2 is a huge system designed for huge rooms; shipping alone would be pretty prohibitive due to the number of boxes. There are better, cheaper 2.1 systems out there. However -... | |
| Talkin' 'bout my De Capo's Hey all,So - a brief update:When the BE tweeters came in, they were already wired - as in, wires already soldered to the positive and negative leads on the driver itself. Hmm. I called Tash and he said once I took out the original tweeter, II coul... | |
| Recommend a recording that shows of soundstage Took response34's advice and played Madonna's "Vogue" and was blown away by the soundstage. It did indeed extend beyond my de Capo's horizontal plane! In fact, much of The Immaculate Collection post 1984 is immaculately produced. Thanks for the ti... | |
| Advantages of monoblocks I could consider them, but my budget won't allow them. In fact, that's what I ran up against last time: for what I can spend on a DAC, I may as well keep the 1072.Also, @Tbg - I had the LSA Signature which I sent off over the winter to John Tucker... | |
| Advantages of monoblocks Actually, I was wondering about an external DAC. My digital source is a Rotel 1072 - an acknowledged giant killer, but still the weakest part of my system. I looked into DACs about a year ago and nothing came up that people said the Rotel couldn't... | |
| Talkin' 'bout my De Capo's Finally got around to soldering in the beryllium tweeters last night and tightened in everything. Will be breaking them in over the week. Update towards the end of the week. | |
| Hum from one set of IC, but not another I believe Paul made it as a common line level. I'm going to follow Czarivey's advice with troubleshooting and see what happens. The same Clear Day IC's running from the cd player make no noise at all. | |
| Monitors that compete with quality floorstanders?? The Sjofn (the clue) claims to measure from 28-33Hz to 42KHz - that more than competes with most floor-standers. | |
