| JBL's Marketing Blunder.. It’s actually brilliant & yes, without question girls in this agegroup speak EXACTLY like this. It’s pretty cute but is really just an extention of how they comunicate through SM. JBL gets it... these kids had JBL Pill Bluetooth speakers in co... | |
| Pairing Bookshelf Speakers to my Yamaha A-S801 I'd say go for a new set of KEF R3 Meta. Couple of hundo over $2K but superior to the others in many ways. They are really VERY good and the Yamaha/KEF pairing has been a match made in heaven all the way back to the 80s & the Tweeter Etc days ... | |
| McIntosh Sonus Faber love affair, alternatives? And @verdantaudio - clearly you get it ✅ | |
| McIntosh Sonus Faber love affair, alternatives? @emergingsoul yeah, that's a setup I put togther for a home office which ultimately morphed into much more of a listening room although I do get some work done in there, lol. I guess I'm still a fan of SF products just have had my fill of their re... | |
| Mcintosh MAC7200 or Hegel H390 for a new pair of Kef R7 META I'd consider a Unison Research, Unico 150 to pair with the KEF R towers... a departure from the mainstream yes but maybe read the reviews and try and demo one. I bought a 150 for my son & his wife for their new place. He's got Focal, Kanta No.... | |
| McIntosh Sonus Faber love affair, alternatives? I mean knowing that The McIntosh Group owns Sonus Faber realy Spills The T does it not? My experience with Sonus Faber is that it mated extremely well with Luxman, Hegel & Plinius. Had my Cremona Auditor, M with a variety of amps and with a Pl... | |
| Audio Cables: All the Same? "Let’s begin with what to avoid—gold is always a good myth to start with. All expensive audio cables on the market and even the cheaper ones will often make a big deal out of “gold plated interconnects” this and that. The reason for this has not... | |
| Tune of the Day Fleetwood Mac, "Songbird" off Rumors & Elton John, "Grey Seal" off Goodbye Yellow Brick Road... actually played GYBR in its entirety - one of those masterpieces that flows perfectly front to back. So good! | |
| Modern Covers of Classics Did this once before and I had about 100 great ones so not gonna list them all again but, how about Vanessa Fernandez, When The Levee Breaks... all Zepplin covers and really pretty cool from a polar opposite artist & presentation. Recorded wel... | |
| Weiss 204 Dac or LTA Audio Aero Dac as an upgrade from Chord Qutest Dac I tried the Weiss and it gave me anxiety, its sooo resolving and precise. Would think if one had an overly tubey/fat setup this DAC might tighten things up however, I also have speakers with metallic tweeters and they need some taming so the Weiss... | |
| McIntosh Sonus Faber love affair, alternatives? I had to move on from all things Sonus Faber... Customer service is the absolute worst. They have a US distributor in MN, Fine Sounds, that is a complete clown car of incompetence and jackassery; just my experience. | |
| Tune of the Day Mother Love Bone - "Chloe Dancer/Crown of Thorns" off Shine & Jeff Beck Group "Going Down" off Jeff Beck Group | |
| Finding a Bookshelf for Luxman C900U/M900U @laaudionut - "The budget is around $5k -> $7k (secondhand speaker is a great choice)" you gonna let the CE1w/stands go for that... I'm in if you are. | |
| Finding a Bookshelf for Luxman C900U/M900U I'd love to give a set of Wilson Benesch, ARC Carbon a twirl... there's a set here on this site for $5K - make a deal? They are $7K new & sound like they would be a nice fit with you Luxman electronics. | |
| Tune of the Day @slaw... you're pretty much keeping this thread alive these days. I have some time today though. Just put some NOS Brimar 12ax7/4004 tubes in the linestage & wanna give it a twirl. Nils Lofgren Band, "Tender Love" off Every Breath, Gladys Nigh... |
