| "Against design" Question: why do so many box/driver speakers use MDF instead of real hardwood? | |
| Talkin' 'bout my De Capo's So, the other day I went to a wonderful local audio dealer to audition the Harbeth 7es3 and SHL5's. They were hooked up to a Line Magnetic 501 integrated, with an LM cd player and several turntables, including Well Tempered. This dealer was perfec... | |
| Of all your gear, what piece impresses you most? My de Capo's are amazing monitors. But the LSA Statement integrated is also a lifetime piece. Truthfully, it's the Rotel 1072 cd player that performs far out of its league. | |
| Line Magnetic 501-a gold? any experience? I listened to the 501 Gold/Harbeth combination the other day at a delightful listening session at a local audio dealer. Source was a LM cd/dac and a variety of turntables. I was auditioning the Harbeths - the 7es3 and the SHL5 - but it was the LM ... | |
| Talkin' 'bout my De Capo's Rebbi- did you install the tweeters yourself? | |
| Talkin' 'bout my De Capo's I have the non-beryllium de Capo i's. And here's the crazy thing: I love them BUT I'm considering the Harbeth 7es3 or the HL5. And yet there's absolutely nothing deficient with my de Capo's. They're beautifully neutral with just a tad on the warm ... | |
| Harbeth 7es3/HL5 or Usher Dancer Mini 2? No_Regrets - the HUG was fascinating - and gave me a bunch of stuff I didn't know about the product. Thanks for the tip-off!I plan on moving to a larger listening room in a few years - thus the focus on a larger speaker. I have Reference 3A de Cap... | |
| Harbeth 7es3/HL5 or Usher Dancer Mini 2? Like, 12' x 14' x 7' | |
| Usher Tiny Dancer 2 - opinion Hmmm. I'm not sure if I want to go the monitor route. I mean, I might as well keep my de Capo's if that's the case.Any other opinions? What about Dalis or Audiokinesis? | |
| LSA Signature to Statement upgrade Well, a happy one here. I got the Statement upgrade back several weeks ago and am floored by how good it is.It easily rivals my old ARC VS-115/Blue Circle 2.1 combo and is more full and engaged than my CJ ET250s amp. This one's a keeper. | |
| Usher Tiny Dancer 2 - opinion Thanks, Jax. I was considering the Contour 3.4s as well. They pop up on audiogon every now and then. And thanks for the youtube ideas, too. | |
| Usher Tiny Dancer 2 - opinion I'm glad you corrected me. I feel much better about my place in the audio world. Now, do you actually have an opinion about them? | |
| Usher Tiny Dancer 2 - opinion Actually, that would be Mini Dancer 2. Forgive the misnomer. | |
| Afraid to buy new speakers I didn't know they allowed audio components in prison | |
| Help for a vinyl novice So, the Pro-ject 5.1SE arrived a few weeks ago - a day after I had shipped off my LSA Signature to be upgraded to the Statement Integrated. Thus the Pro-ject sat idle for about three weeks until the amp arrived last Thursday, blinged out and respl... |
