| Magico - Wide vs. Narrow I am trying to integrate my newly rebuilt Quad 63s in my room and am having a tough go of it. Alot of sacrifices that go along with the magic. | |
| Which sounds better 2 way or 3 way speaker design I really like the designs with no midrange crossover but they are somewhat output limited. Again much easier to make a good 2 way which should have better time and phase characteristics. A dedicated midrange driver is both a blessing and a curse d... | |
| Which sounds better 2 way or 3 way speaker design 3 way designs are more difficult to get right. Also 3 ways are more expensive, so be suspect of a 2 and 3 way design of similar price. | |
| Magico - Wide vs. Narrow But do we really want an increase in our sense of space? Is this illusion correct or an aberration? | |
| What contributes most to a change in how an amplifier sounds? The speakers with which they are paired. | |
| Magico - Wide vs. Narrow In my experience most wide baffle speakers do have somewhat of a distinct sound. This may also be due to the fact that many wide baffle manufacturers also subscribe to old fashioned design ideas like lossy cabinets, flat baffle fronts, etc. | |
| Entry Level Tube Integrated Amps Perhaps a bit pricey but I like the Rogers stuff made in the U.S. | |
| Magico - Wide vs. Narrow Well I just looked at the M Series on their site and these are certainly not traditional wide baffle speakers. To my eyes it looks like a superb cabinet design that is not wife baffle. | |
| The Legendary ? Infinity IRS V Very good for the time, but would not stand up to the state of the art at present. The speaker is defined, both pro and con, by the drivers. Very definitively so to my ears. | |
| And a Ho! Ho! Ho! To All! Merry Christmas! | |
| Vintage JBL Floor Standing Speakers I just bought, redid and sold both a pair of Jubal L65s and L100s. It definitely improves the speaker to put in some better hardware and to update the crossovers but I really hated the sound of both these speakers. What they did do well, especiall... | |
| Seeking speakers under $3K for 10x12 ft room and driven by 20wpc tube amp I think the impedance is more significant than the efficiency. If you plan to continue using a tube amp. | |
| VAC preamps - too expensive? I owned a VAC Phi 100 I believe and was very happy. I thought the sensitivity was too high. An excellent amp but seemed to share a similar sound with other push-pull designs using the same power tubes I have heard or owned. Never had an issue. Kev... | |
| Current or Previous Harbeth Owners… An instrument creates sound. A speaker reproduces sound. Pretty simple really. The Stereophile excerpt is copy. Do you think Fremer or Atkinson would give a Harbeth the same review as Dudley? What about the glowing reviews of a "dead" speakers l... | |
| DeVore O/93 or PureAudioProject Duet15 for a First Watt SIT-3? Just voicing my opinion. Believe it or not, the post you first commented on was listed to help, but evidently it served as a trigger. Take some time and find your safe place. |
