| Best rock song of all times So many good songs mentioned here. I would add "I'm Eighteen" Alice Cooper and "Cocaine" Eric Clapton. | |
| I am frustrated with the sound from my DAC If your DAC sounds a bit harsh with too much "sssss", check out an old Theta ProBasic III. You might be pleasantly surprised for like $500 or $600. I was. | |
| Usless but interesting ....how many of you old timers started with original Large Advents? Small Advents in 75 and Large Advents in 76. Kenwood amp. | |
| Are Bowers and Wilkins speakers overpriced? They are overpriced because the tweeters are fatiguing. Sorry. | |
| Compare Large Advent? Hi All,I have the old Large Advents hooked up again, this time with a Coda CSI amp, and this setup sounds better than with the W4S ST1000.The Advents sound good. Mellow with no harsh treble. Soundstage is there and there is texture to the sound. C... | |
| Best Value Line Stage Tube Preamps? FWIW, I own a PL Dialogue Premium preamp. It has been back twice for repairs. Had a bad capacitor within 90 days of purchasing it and some sort of a "circuit problem" about a year later. Both covered under warranty by Upscale but just the same....... | |

| What is the most FUN pair of speakers you've ever had and why? Large Advents. I truly grew up with them! Still have a pair tucked way in original boxes. | |
| Can I cheat and not get caught? What’s wrong with bare wire? Good question celtic66! | |
| Looking for recommendations for a 'warm' sounding DAC Perhaps an old Theta Pro Basic III. I run Thiel CS5's and they can sound sharp in the treble if not paired with the right gear.The Theta smoothed things out nicely for me.Thanks for listening,Dsper | |
| Which Harbeth would work in my room? jazzguy43 wrote: If you love the Thiel sound, the Harbeths are not that in any way. I do appreciate the Thiel sound. The CS5's are so much better than the 3.6's, which I also have, but I cannot seem to get a good sound stage or separate images wi... | |
| Harbeth 30.1 ? The Ultimate Speaker under $5K ? ozzy62 I can't believe more of you "seasoned" audiophile aren't calling out the OPs very questionable room instead of randomly suggesting speakers.I am not sure I am a seasoned audiophile though I have been listening for 50 years; might have eve... |
