| "Nightfly Trilogy" worth the trouble? Chadnliz and Truman: Well, there you have two contrasting opinions for sure. | |
| Complete newbie needing guidance/purchase advice Renaissanceman9,I have owned the LSA1 Statement in the past and it's a very nice speaker. Haven't heard the 2's but would expect them to be a fine starting point, if not your "forever" speaker (as if most of us have such a thing!) FWIW! | |
| Fritz Carbon 7 vs. Nola Boxer or Harbeth? Fritz got a review in TAS? Really? Wow... he must be thrilled... be interested to read it when my issue arrives. | |
| DAC newbie: toslink vs. coax and more... Thanks for all the advice. I'm gonna try coax first and report back.Turns out that a local audio shop bought out the entire stock of a discontinued Nordost cable which works for coax and regular RCA analogue; it's called "Omni Konnect." It was 1/2... | |
| DAC newbie: toslink vs. coax and more... Thank you very much for the helpful response! Subsequent to posting this (I should have done so at the outset) I did a Google search on this topic, and came up with tons of hits, both here and elsewhere. Thank you! | |
| Best Speakers at RMAF 2011...? Tbg,You get to hear (the clue) by Sjofn? What did you think, if so? | |
| Best Speakers at RMAF 2011...? Mapman,To my sadness, I never made it to RMAF this year. I was supposed to attend, but on my way to the airport to leave for Denver, my Prius was rear-ended at fairly high speed by a Ford F350 pickup truck. (The driver had either fallen asleep at ... | |
| Best Speakers at RMAF 2011...? Anybody make it to the Merlin room? | |
| Best speakers to use with Mahi Mahi amps Hi,I wouldn't claim that these are the "best speakers" to use with the Mahi's, but with mine I am running a pair of Merlin TSM-mmi's and they make wonderful music together. Bobby P of Merlin is a tube lover at heart and while my Merlins sounded fi... | |
| Smallish floorstander that sounds good placed just What about the Ohm Micro Walsh Tall? A used pair should be under $1000. Output is attenuated in the rear, to prevent problems with reflections. Might be a great choice. | |
| "Best" speakers new/used under $3,000? For what it's worth, Sloane27, I've owned Ohms (Micro Walsh Talls and then 100's) and currently have the Merlin TSM-mmi.If your room is very lively (which it sounds like it might be) then I'm not so sure Ohm is your best choice. Much as I loved mu... | |
| Speakers that are RAP music proof Yeah, I'm gonna agree with my friend Mapman on this one. Ohm Walshes are definitely worth a look. They're insanely well priced, they go really deep, and the pseudo-omni design means you don't have to sit perfectly still in a tiny sweet spot... the... | |
| Who stay with Merlin longest time Feeding the troll here, but...Okay, Jimbo2. Over the 25 odd years I've been in seriously into this hobby I've owned:Vandersteen 2c'sTotem Arro'sOhm Micro Walsh Tall's and 100 S-3'sSilverline Preludes (briefly)Ascend Sierra 1's (very briefly)PSB Sy... | |
| Speakers with wide listening window Ditto: look at Ohm. You get a 4month in-home trial; if you don't like them, you're only out the cost of shipping them back. Whether or not you like their presentation is a matter of personal taste, but they're definitely worth a look. Very well pr... | |
| Why no reviews of the Magnepan 3.7 in Stereophile Pubul57,I agree with your last post; I treat the mags as entertainment. |
