| What happened to the New Today box on Audiogon. Go to the "discover" tab at the top of the home page and hover over it. New today will be one of the items in the drop down menu. I like it when it is on the home page as well, but it is still available. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts I cannot go through all of the posts on this thread. I believe this has been asked but I don't remember it being answered. What is the difference between the DI and the SE version? The website says nothing. What makes up the $3000 difference in pr... | |
| Room acoustics Great thread so far with a lot of information. When taking FR measurements, what kind of smoothing needs to be applied? IOW, what is the minimum Q of a mode that should or needs to be dealt with? | |
| Soundstage and explosive dynamics? Geoff, thanks for the link, very interesting. The Tool disc I have is on the low end of the medium scale, and is audible. Clearly many of their albums are better, and I will check out some of them. It also shows that the upper range dynamics of th... | |
| Soundstage and explosive dynamics? I'm guessing you've never even listened to Tools recorded work. Dynamically compressed doesn't at all describe it. More assumption from you, what a surprise. I have "Opiate" and went back and revisited it after this comment. I immediately fol... | |
| Greatest rhythm sections Though they were more known for the triple lead guitars, I always enjoyed the pre crash rhythm section of Lynyrd Skynyrd. Billy Powell with Bob Burns/Artimus Pyle were very good. "I know a little", "Call me the Breeze", "Workin for MCA", etc | |
| Soundstage and explosive dynamics? Using highly compressed rock music to make the proclamation that your speakers don't dynamically compress music......absolutely brilliant. BTW, I like and listen to a lot of rock music. The Focals at 92 db efficient are likely very good at dynamic... | |
| Soundstage and explosive dynamics? +1 @phusis I have heard many, many speakers with multiple small woofers and some can have very good dynamics. However, they do not get to the level of horns. None, zip, zero, nil, nada. Doggedly denying that fact does not make it any less valid.... | |
| No frills balanced ss integrated amp? A used Coda CSI-b could be had at the top end of your range. | |
| Don't You Just Love It When... Bad Company referenced the Beatles song "Love me do" in the song "Shooting star". | |
| FRIED C/3 Monitor 6.500" Midbass driver replacement ??? Trelja knows a lot about vintage Fried products. You would be wise to follow his advice. | |
| Soundstage and explosive dynamics? The Volti Rival falls within his budget and was recommended earlier. I agree that the Volti speakers are very nice. | |
| Soundstage and explosive dynamics? Agree with Shadorne recommendations and also add PMC. For a couple of under the radar choices, consider the Volti Audio Rival and a couple of the offerings from Duke Lejune of Audiokinesis. They would include Prisma, Zephryn 46, and the newest mod... | |
