| Sonus Faber Guarneri vs Guarneri Memento Flg 2001, The mid-woofer is as a custom made Audiotechnologie unit in the GH and a Dynaudio sourced unit in the GM. | |
| Sonus Faber Guarneri vs Guarneri Memento Pinkus,I think Flg2001 hit the nail on the head..As I have posted before, the drivers in the GH's are IMHOfar superior to the drivers in the M. The Esotar is probably one of the top two or three tweeters in the world and the Audiotechnologie mid/w... | |
| SF Guarneri Homage vs Harbeth 7ES3 Don, If you need more bass, I suggest a sub. Usually in a small room the G's have sufficient bass, but in a larger room, then a sub that is fast and as accurate as possible, is the way to go. I personally don't really like the A's as much as the G... | |
| SF Guarneri Homage vs Harbeth 7ES3 Don, why are you selling your G's? | |
| Sonus Faber Guarneri vs Guarneri Memento Pinkus....how perceptive of you..:0) Congrats on the quick fingers and beating me to the thread..;0)I actually thought this thread had died a while back..guess I was wrong. My feelings on the G's vs. M's are pretty well known by now. Simply look o... | |
| SF Guarneri Homage vs Harbeth 7ES3 Ggavetti, I own the SF G's and have listened extensively to the 7Es3's.... Really 'like comparing apples and oranges' as the old saying goes.If you listen to Jazz and vocal and strings, IMHO the G's are just about unbeatable and frankly to me in a... | |
| Is it the transport or DAC that enables HDCD/Red? You might want to seek out an EAD 7000 Mk 2 or 3 from a few years ago. It's an exceptional DAC and will decode HDCD.What's more it also has an invert switch so you change polarity onthe fly....VERY VERY useful IMHO | |
| Personal speaker evolution My first speakers were Pye's with their Pye turntable andintegrated. A very musical system. Then I owned some KLH's for about two days. Took the KLH's back and found audiophiledom. Next up were Maggie 1's impwhich I still think sound great. Sold t... | |
| Speakers to hang on to for LIFE Jman,Agree with you, my Sonus Faber G's have got me off the merry-go-round also.A very special speaker that is a pleasure to own. | |
| What happened to the absolute sound web page? Thanks Reubent, that's the link...Strange though that they would let that domain name ( www.theabsolutesound.com) go by the wayside! Probably forgot to pay the renewal fees in time.:0)lol! | |
| speaker recommendations for a 12 x 12 room? Azkeith, I too am using a similar sized room.In this room, I have excellent results with SF GuarneriHommage speakers. One of the best things I have tried is to place large objects into the corners of the room behind the speakers for diffraction an... | |
| Wilson Audio MAXX series III Since the Maxx series 2 is now a boat anchor, I will be looking out for these on A'gon for pennies on the dollar. | |
| Cartridge aging and tip wear symtoms? While I appreciate all the above answers, I am still left confused as to how to recognize the onset of cartridge failure. I agree that if the suspension fails then the results will be probably obvious. However, what are the symtoms of failure of t... | |
| Rowland owners which speaker you use & recommend I am amazed at the synergy between my Model 8 and the SF Guarneri Hommage. VERY musical. | |
| Philips CD-80 digital output quality? WP, I too will be interested to see responses to this thread. I also own a CD80, although I only use it as a transport. I use a EAD7000 Mk3 DAC and this seems to be a nice improvement over the 80 as a stand alone unit. |
