JM Labs-Focal: Chorus 726S or 806V or Electra 906? I don't know what the difference is between the S and V Chorus speakers other than I've read a lot more positive reviews of the V speakers than I have of the S spaekers.Just a couple of weeks ago I listened to a pair of the 806v speakers at my loc... | |
JM Labs-Focal: Chorus 726S or 806V or Electra 906? I have never heard an "S" series Focal speaker, but have heard a lot of the different "v" speakers. The 806v is a great speaker, but I'd be surprised if the Electra 906 didn't sound better. Can you listen to any of them? | |
pro's and con's of a 4 ohm speaker? My speakers are rated for 8 ohms nominal impedance, but have a low impedance of about 3.9 ohms. My old receiver wasn't rated to be 4 ohm stable and my new one is. I know there are other factors (i.e. also jumped from 90 watts to 135 watts per chan... | |
component cones/spikes vs. rubber I don't have any experience beyond the Nordost Sort Kones that I recently purchased and put under my CD player, but I can pass along a story the owner of the audio store told me. You can take it or leave it.He was helping a friend optimize a syste... | |
How do you determine how much to spend on speakers Make that the Pathos Logos. | |
How do you determine how much to spend on speakers I have an Integra 50.1 receiver with Focal 836v speaker and last Monday I listened to a Focal 807v bookshelf speaker that had significantly better clarity in the sound compared to my "better" speakers. The difference was the 807v speakers were bei... | |
One Less Bose Wave Radio in the World I would suspect that if your friend was left to himself he would end up purchasing a Bose Wave® music system with connect kit for iPod that retails for $599.I'd suggest giving him some options to choose from that would be as close to this product ... | |
One Less Bose Wave Radio in the World OP - Have you visited his house and had him point out where the new system will be going?I am somewhat entertained at the level of discussion just to find something that's a Bose "killer." If the Bose product is a bad as many believe a Bose "kille... | |
Brought a new Tweak home today to try out. I got the AC kones. They are the 2nd step up and the only ones I've seen in the store.I asked an electrical engineer friend of mine about the ground controls and he actually thought the concept was pretty sound other than some of their specifics w... | |
Brought a new Tweak home today to try out. I think I'm sold on the Sort Kones. I just spent some time listening to four specific songs with the Sort Kones, then without and now again with. It's difficult to describe the difference other than to say that something big is missing when I take... | |
Brought a new Tweak home today to try out. My second impression of the Sort Kones is that they are as impressive as advertised. I was told to use a duet vocal CD to demo and specifically listen to the seperation of the vocals. I have the CD The Priests that is perfect because it's an excel... | |
706v Weekend Enjoyment You may have successfully eliminated yourself from the enjoyment of music listening in any normal environment. I'd love to hear your system. | |
706v Weekend Enjoyment It sounds like you could easily stop by my house and go home quite happy with your system.The difference between my approx. 5k system and my father-in-laws approx 1.5k is really easy to hear. I probably wouldn't spend a lot more if it literally to... | |
Subwoofer question In my opinion, if your primary function is going to be home theater the sub isn't super critical beyond having a decent one. Your mains should do fine for 2 channel listening so I wouldn't over do it on a subwoofer. I have a Martin Logan Dynamo 70... | |
Inexpensive sub for MG12's I have the Dynamo 700 and rarely use it above 1/4 volume in home theater mode. When I had it connected to the main channel pre-outs the volume was even lower. I was amazed at it capability when it first arrived. It's not the greatest sub on earth,... |
