| Klipsch Cornwall III with Bryston 4B SST2 / BP17 ? As a past owner of the Cornwall and the Khorn, I would also agree that your best bet is a lowish watt tube amp. IMHO, SS and high power are not a good match for these speakers. They will surely be on the bright side and you'll want to end you're l... | |
| fair price for Avant Garde Duo 2.2 Audiogon bluebook has the Duo 2.2 sII listed at $7550.00 used.Why don't you "test" your neighbor a bit by turning it up a little at a time and see if you get any feedback from him. You could also invite him over for a drink and show him your set u... | |
| Aluminum Foil test for Audio Desk Vinyl Cleaner Hey Syntax, having a bad day?Try to get past the first sentance this time. | |
| Small Speakers For A Large Room... Don't know if 4' is too tall for you, but Zu might still have available the Definition 3 right in your price range. Very efficient, will fill a large room no problem, and only takes up one square foot of floor space. Has built in subs so no need f... | |
| Aluminum Foil test for Audio Desk Vinyl Cleaner Had the 16.5, have the Audio Desk now and I'll never look back. I thought the record noise was at a minimum before, even (much) better now! Ad to that just putting a record in and coming back 5-8 minutes later to a completely clean and dried recor... | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup Just when I thought I had my Def 4's dialed in, I just lowered the low pass filter to 30 and volume at 4. OMG, the bass is still there, but now you can't tell where it's coming from. Before, you knew it was at the speakers. Just saying, keep playing. | |
| a crazy free audiophile tweak It might be easier to just move your speakers so one is facing each ear. You know, like your head is the meat of a sandwich. | |
| Why do some audiophiles beat up McIntosh? Nothing against McIntosh here. Had a MD7007 CD player that sounded pretty darn good, and I have an MR 78 tuner that sounds exceptional. Harley's underperform? I think not. What are you comparing them to, crotch rockets? I don't think Harley owners... | |
| Khorn room size Congratulations on your find. Can't say about your size room, but I had mine in a room almost twice as big, and 6 watts of power filled the room without breaking a sweat. Hey, if it doesn't work out you can always turn around and unload them witho... | |
| 25.00 flat rate shipping Sounds like they want to get rid of the garage sale stuff. | |
| What is your most beautiful component? I'm a sucker for vintage so I'll say my Technics R2R and my McIntosh 78 tuner. | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup Agree, leave the amps on. Except during a lightning storm or extended absence. | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup Charles1dad,I had the PX25 myself with both the Def 3, & now the Def 4 and can verify that the amp ran out of steam at concert level volumes (with rock type music anyway). I would say my room is sort of on the large side with vaulted ceilings.... | |
| Can we increase dynamics? Be careful of your settings If you end up with a DBX Dynamic Range Expander. I had one years ago and it took out a woofer on a pair of JBL's I had. | |
