| Has anyone tried these products? I have a number of Audimute panels throughout my listening room along with a couple of GIK diffusers and they were a big help. I have the fabric covered 2" panels, not the same as those you are looking at. Where is the wall in your listening sp... | |
| Svs sb17-ultra for music If it's a relatively new sub, you may not get much actual hands on experience. I would get the SVS before I'd get a REL. With the high efficiency of your JBL speakers, you want a sub with some power and most will recommend a sealed design for mu... | |
| Vintage Japanese DD Consult and Suggestions Please I love my JVC QLY66F. I bought it a few years ago. At first, I thought it was horrible. It howled like a banshee at higher volumes. I replaced the feet and stuffed as much plasticlay as I could inside the plinth and now it sounds and looks bea... | |
| Do you agree with John Atkinson (and me)? My music collection certainly cost more than my gear, but loving music and loving the way it sounds don't have to be mutually exclusive. | |
| New remastering of Steely Dan's Katy Lied review by Fremer Katy and her lies showed up on my doorstep yesterday. My expectations were not high, but the sound quality was nothing short of incredible. The guitars had a nice edge to the them that is missing in previous versions, the vocals were much cleare... | |
| R2R next? Don't like ESS I have been through a few DACs. Different chip types do have a certain sound character, but the same chip type can sound completely different, depending on the implementation and output stage (I may not be using the correct technical terms, I am ... | |
| speaker upgrade fever I think you'll love the JA's! Let us know. | |
| speaker upgrade fever Harbeth and Joseph Audio speakers share some similarities, but are also very different in some ways. They both do imaging and soundstage very well and are fairly neutral. Harbeths are less detailed. Your KEF Ref 1 speakers have more detail than... | |
| speaker upgrade fever for example my comments about the KEF R1 were in a reasonable sized room w a lot of bric a brac diffusion… a very well sorted high quality SWARM and a chain : SOTA > Jelco > Dyna XV-1S > Cary top of line tube phono > Herron line stage... | |
| HAVE CABLES EVER TAKEN YOUR SYSTEM FROM SOUNDING JUST OK TO SOUNDING GREAT? Experiences ? I just swapped out the Zavfino Highlands MK2 silver tonearm cable on my Sota for my Audience AU24 SE and I think the Zavfino may have been holding things back. The AU24 SE is more "musical", and has more body. There is a pretty significant price... | |
| Enjoying the Original Music Streaming Format - Analog FM Stereo When working from home, I normally listen to jazz all day on KNKX through a Magnum Dynalab Etude. It's close to CD quality and better than most digital streams. Radio Paradise is about the only digital "radio" station that I've found that is worth... | |
| Adding a tube amp is a good idea? I would keep what you have or consider an amp that is all Class A. I've heard the JA Pulsar Graphenes with both Sugden and Pass class A amps and to my ears, that was a great pairing. | |
| Looking for advise regarding Rogue M180’s I has some of Quicksilver's Horn monoblocks for a while and they were really good with my Klipsch Chorus speakers. I was most impressed by how quiet they were. I moved away from tube amps, as much as I like the sound, I got tired of the issues ... | |
| Looking for advise regarding Rogue M180’s I'm not sure I have much to add, mulveling covered a lot of ground. As he said, some hiss is normal with high efficiency speakers. I think I had Klipsch speakers when I had my M180s and if you got close to the tweeters, you could hear some hiss, b... | |
| Who is Roon? They don't "create narratives about tons of albums." Perhaps there's some original content that I've missed, but as far as I can tell, all of the music reviews come from Allmusic or Wikipedia. Not a knock on Roon, I love it. |
