Pass....Accuphase....or......

you can grow a beard waiting. Go back into your dive bar, find someone else to pick a fight with. You attacked me personally several times without me giving you any reason, I am not playing with bullies. 

Done with this conversation, if you can't ignore it, I sure will.

Ahh, there it is.

You have extolled some information that has no merit and now you say you won't (I say you can't) back it up. You were the one who challenged my post regarding the sensitivity of this speaker. I gave you facts to validate that assertion and you continue to disagree. You told me it's just my opinion and the facts prove otherwise.

Well what are those facts?

It’s not so much high volume I’m after but dynamics.

@southofdallas Proper ’dynamics’ should arise from the signal and nothing else. Quite often amps can generate higher ordered harmonics which the uses to sense sound pressure, so just as often these harmonics are mistaken for ’dynamics’. So you can see that in many audiophile conversations you can replace the word ’dynamics’ with ’distortion’ and not change the meaning of the conversation.

I’ve found (using LPs and CDs I recorded personally) that the mark of the best systems is that of a relaxed, effortless presentation even at higher volume levels.

You don't need great power for that; just finesse.

I’ve had significant seat time w great musical happiness with subject speakers and a variety of Ayre amplifiers…. still a great company after CH passing. Ariel is agreat engineer…with ears

PS …if i was a younger man and wanted to spend more than my normal 3 months in Canada… i would seek to restart Verity….
