| Tube Friendly High End "Big" speakers Hi Bgupton,Big windows like that can be a challenge with a lot of speakers, but I totally get that you don't want to lose the glorious views. The room is probably too small for the Classic Audio T-1.4s, but the T-3s with field coil drivers could d... | |
| Anyone going to RMAF this year? Here is a link to access the Excel file from the website to which Realremo referred (thanks).The link button is at the bottom of the exhibitors list page on the site. | |
| New Vandersteen oil cooled hybrid amplifiers Rpeluso: Spot on!A speaker manufacturer who starts making amplifiers tends to damage relations with amplifier manufacturers with whom they have worked in the past, hurting themselves. Time will tell, but I expect Vandersteen is aware of the risk. ... | |
| Basis Audio Super Arm 9 A customer just ordered a Kuzma 4Point to replace his Phantom II, to be mounted on his Basis Debut with a custom adapter I designed. Can't wait for his reaction and figure he'll be losing a lot of sleep :) | |
| Soundlabs London/UK/Europe I responded to your post on the SLOG site. Once you hear a proper Sound Lab system...Atmasphere is right. People should avail themselves of the opportunity to audition the product(s) of interest rather than buying blind. The latter can become very... | |
| New $35K pivoting tonearm 06-26-14: LarryiI recall that a very rare Air Tangent arm allowed for remotely controlled VTA. I never heard of azimuth being adjustable that way. Kuzma had an arm pillar with a digital readout that made it easy to adjust the arm up or down and ge... | |
| JC3+ Anyone? Alternately from the methods described by Lew and Doug, one can use software, which takes the rest of the system out of the equation, among other things. I have been using the Feickert software ever since it came out and am able to quickly converg... | |
| Panel Sound Hi John,I remember that comparison here well. You might want to come down for a listen to the speakers (U-1PX) which have all the bells and whistles and are in the much larger, acoustically designed room.Brian | |
| Service from Audio Research A dealer's primary obligation must be to his customers. In this case he should be communicating diligently with ARC to quickly resolve the issue without you needing to be involved. A dealer deserves to make a fair profit on the sale, and as part o... | |
| Kuzma Stabi S and 4point? overkill? The 4Point is an easy drop-in installation on the Stabi S. This combination, with the external power supply, was demonstrated at CES in January with a Kuzma CAR-30 cartridge to good effect.Compared to the Stogi S 12 VTA the 4Point is better. I hav... | |
| Some Axpona thoughts The system at the show pales in comparison to what's here, even though the electronics and cabling are the same. Chris and Melissa Owen of Clarity Cable, who were in the room, came by today for a listen and were just about in tears the whole time. | |
| Some Axpona thoughts 04-27-14: PapermillSound Lab Millenium with Clarity Cable.Thank you, glad you liked the sound.Actually the speakers we demonstrated were Sound Lab Majestic 845s. (A review of this model was just published on EnjoyTheMusic.com) Power cords, power d... | |
| Tidal Piano Cera or Magico S3 It's ironic that a speaker that wasn't asked about in the original post is brought up by someone who not coincidentally happens to sell it, followed by several people replying that they have heard that speaker against the other two asked about and... | |
| Most expensive Thanks, Cdc, I understand, but my information is much more current. Then again, anyone with a room of proper size, construction, and furnishings for the 37' wide Ultimate system probably wouldn't look at the price tag. I read elsewhere that they h... | |
| AXPONA or T.H.E. Newport? Mrschret, my information and instincts tell me that Axpona will be held elsewhere after this year. That you are so close to the show location makes the decision even easier for you. We'll be there, so please stop in and introduce yourselves and ta... |
