| Impact of using spikes for speakers? Bass is where the biggest improvement is heard. However, since your speakers were previously well anchored to the hard floor, the improvement will be nowhere near as dramatic compared to speakers previously sitting on carpet...Still, a subtle impr... | |
| bryston ss series vs. classe ca-201 I listened to the Classe and Bryston 7bsst quite a bit recently when I was upgrading amps. I felt the Bryston was better, in that it was faster and produced bass powerfully whilst remianing lovely on the top end. I thought the Classe was a bit sof... | |
| My new Krell LAT-1000. Anyone else like these? Hi Microstrip, I'm happy to hear the wonderful Stradivari are doing the job for you! They are truly great speakers.My room is 7.5m X 4.8m, and I really think any smaller would be a problem for the LATs, as I too feel that they need a room on the b... | |
| Need to warm things up a bit... I have tried the Cardas Golden Cross for a few weeks now, and yes, they do seem to warm things up a bit...they smooth out the top end and mids, which I like, but unfortunately they also kill resolution on the mids and bass. The mids and bass are m... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Yes Dave_b, they surely are balanced and musical. Also powerful and yet dainty when called upon to be such. I havn't heard the Resolution 2, but I have heard the Resolution 1 and they were teriffic too, so I don't doubt that yours are wonderfully ... | |
| Watt / Puppy without the crossover I agree with Oz. Disaster will arrive if it hasn't already! To bypass the crossover altogether you need to run an active crossover (such as deqx) and biamp. | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Krell LAT-1000. I'm still breaking mine in and they are wonderful in every sense! | |
| My new Krell LAT-1000. Anyone else like these? Sorry Brian,I don't know why I assumed you were in the US!I am in Australia, and was keen to try the Rockports, however there are no importers/distrubitors here, ,hence there are none in the country...I'm not sure about Avalon, but I will find out... | |
| My new Krell LAT-1000. Anyone else like these? Thanks Brian! I will try the recommendations you mentioned.Yes the voicing is not quite neutral, I discovered last night listening with a much more experienced audiophile than myself. But I like it!I also agree that LAT-1000 makes most sense in an... | |
| Personal amp evolution NAD 302, Yamaha Reciever rxv1092, Krell kav400xi, Krell Evo600 monoblocks. I think I will keep the evo600s for a long, long, time. They are great. | |
| House AC Line Variance I have 240V AC and it varies between 220 and 255!I bought a Thor PS10 power station and that unit shows input AC voltatage and output AC voltage on it's display. Now no matter what the input voltage, it always provides a stable 240V output. This h... | |
| Crossover / Fuse Repair, Blown Tweeters I am in no way an electonics engineer (actually I am an optometrist...), but I have a friend who is a computer engineer. He says that replacing 12V with at 10V will cause no problems.As to changing the value of the fuse, he recommends against it. ... |
