| New Kudos X-2's anyone? Contact Brian at Whetstone Audio in Austin.They could be the answer for many who have to consider WAF/HAF, closeness to rear wall, taut tuneful bass, ease of movement due to size, and sheer greatness for the money.Like the rest of you, I get my po... | |
| Any audiophiles brewing beer? Yes, goes hand in hand with hifi! "Relax, don't worry, have a homebrew" is like "Play Records". Been making homebrew since '84. One of my old time favs is the Charlie Pappazon "Cherries in the Snow". Still make a batch for Xmas every year.Cheers! | |
| New SS Integrated from ARC DSi200 ... Just heard one tonight, quite wonderful, and it's not even broke in yet. I expect great things from it. Even has a mono switch! And for all you constant whiners about heat/amps, this is babyfingers cool to the touch. | |
| Bass Suckout in a Square Room - Remedies and Solut I doubt it's the room....try removing the couch! A friend had the same problem, after reading Jim Smith's book Get Better Sound, he saw the same situation listed and did as instructed by Jim, and no bass probs....try it and see what happens... | |
| Harbeth Compact 7-ES3 Speakers In your room, if your Linn is any good, (pardon), if the the amp mates well with the harbeths, you probably won't need the subwoofer. ( I thought you bought the P3's?) | |
| Auditorium 23 SoloVox... You also might want to talk to Don or Jonathan again if you haven't already. From all I've read from Keith Aschenbrenner and his PHY friend, the solovoxes were made for real listening rooms,ie. smallish rooms, like most european ones. It sounds li... | |
| Auditorium 23 SoloVox... Hi,it's not that they're not popular- it's that they're kinda rare over here. You can hear a pair at Don Better's in Cleveland for sure. I'm not sure how they work in a particular room other than what we've read. You could try Jonathan Halpern at ... | |
| Harbeth Radial Driver - How Good? I wish we could sit down for a listen....I wouldn't have made my comment, but earlier you asked about ditching your Linn table for a Sota, and now this? :) | |
| Harbeth Radial Driver - How Good? Drubin, I guess you had some paint that needed peeling :) | |
| Any Thoughts on the Sonic Frontiers power 1? Sorry, cyclone, was in a hurry. I've just never liked them. A friend has the popular preamp, never liked it, and has the bigger 2 amp. I think they were audiophile products, not music makers. If you can get one cheap and like it, then go for it. A... | |
| Any Thoughts on the Sonic Frontiers power 1? I wouldn't bother if I were you.... | |
| Luxman L505u . . . why not? Oiy! but the price! that's quite a leap from the 505u...I bet it's lovely... | |
| Choosing a new turntable Very good summation of the Amadeus, 4musica. Spot on. Does the Ayre or Basis sound similiar? or were you just talking build, or looks of materials? I've seen some gorgeous-looking tables lately with flashy parts, but it doesn't always show up in t... | |
| Question regarding reputation of SOTA tables Hi Rsrex, hey, he asked why not, and I told him. Probably the people who bought em then would now, and those that didn't wouldn't. Even with upgrades, most tables would still have their "house" sound. Look at Linn, Michell, others...If a horse cha... | |
| Question regarding reputation of SOTA tables Sorry, that was a bit snarky sounding. What I should have politely said was, I listened to Sotas quite a bit in the 80's when they were prominent, and I always found them lacking musically, I suppose boring, or not being able to pull the music off... |
