| Need help on an all rounder speaker under $5000 Lots of high value options in that range.Don't know if they ship to India but the Von Schweikert VR33's have been highly praised. I can also endorse the Gallo Ref 3.xs, have had them for 7 years. Legacy also makes high value speakers in that range. | |
| Oppo 95: Burn-in...and Fan Guys, sorry, don't mean to come across as disagreeable and I understand everyone's here to exchange ideas and info. This is obviously a pet peeve of mine that occurs often in the audiophile community. If you think your electronics sound better aft... | |
| Oppo 95: Burn-in...and Fan jdub39 - not the answer I was looking for.ESS does nothing more than precipitate latent defects -- bad solder joints, loose wiring, bad connectors and weak parts by over stressing parts mechanically, thermally and electrically. This is typically w... | |
| Oppo 95: Burn-in...and Fan I imagine jet fuel will work better with burn in than kerosene or plain old auto gasoline...if you have something that can ignite it.Seriously...I want someone to explain to me in terms of physics...I'm talking p/n junction theory, conduction theo... | |
| New Gallo 3.5's Hi Dave, thanks for the quick response!Let me try to clarify my 1st question.This is from a previous post of yours up in this thread:A fellow owner and friend brought over one of his stock Ref 3s and after getting a fix on how my "new" pair sounde... | |
| New Gallo 3.5's Not sure that dopogue or dfwatt are still reading this thread due to the big time gap, but I did have some questions/comments on some of the dialog above:1. For both of you, in the tests that you performed (Doug with resonance damping material and... | |
| Velodyne SMS-1 is outstanding Have you been able to tell how small the listener position sweetspot is once you've equalized it with microphone at a given spot?I'm thinking of getting an SMS-1 but one concern is that the equalized sweetspot maybe too small to be practical. Woul... | |
| Gallo 3 Reference Center - Anyone got one? and the complementary AV surround version...same as center channel except CDT tweeter module is oriented vertically just like on the Ref 3's. They have lots of pictures of both up in the under review section. | |
| Other sub amp for Gallo Ref3 secondary voice coil? 08-30-05: RichsI purchased a pair of plate subwoofer amps from Parts Express for about $125 each (part of a DIY subwoofer kit). I think the version I bought have about 200 wpc. The plate amps, of course, have a variable low pass filter, phase and ... | |
| I got my Gallo Ref3's today It would be VERY easy to break the switches lifting the grills off. The grills have a cross member that could easily catch the switch and whack it right off. It's a cheesy little switch. By the way, I wouldn't recommend throwing a blanket over the... | |
| gallo ref3 with the golden ear awards? Audio_girl:Just goes to show how subjective a thing the "sound" of a speaker system is to different people. The VR-4jrs and Ref III's were in my final 3, and it was a fairly easy call for me...for the Gallos. I've always been a proponent/addict of... | |
| VMPS RM 30 or RM 40-VS- Von Schweikert VR4 Series? I also auditioned the RM 40 and VR-4 jr recently at Dynamic Sound (probably the dealer in DC referred to above). I would say the biggest differences were in three areas: (1) RM 40s had noticably better "you are there" presence and ability to resol... |
