All Amps Sound the Same.... Some of you guys guessed it right. Here's the latest quote:"You've been sold a bill of goods my friend. There's a lot snake oil in "high-end" audio and anybody that tells you that a two channel amp sounds better than a multichannel amp or a receiv... | |
Are the CD'S days numbered? When I was a kid I would see crazy old men buying 78s. They didn't know they were obsolete. I guess I'll be the crazy old man buying CDs... | |
Is the most efficient speaker the best speaker? You guys are missing some key points. All speaker designers want to have high efficiency but you can't always get it without compromising something else, like frequency response or a changing impedance. As in most engineering, you have to make cho... | |
Number of yrs. to reach the finished line? As others have said, there is no finish line. I don't know about you guys but once I get a system working well, I'm ready to change something. Panels to horns, horns to dynamic, planers to electrostatics... It's a journey, not a destination. | |
Best Recording of Solo Tambourine Sorry you won't be reading this but I'll include it for future reference. The Monkees always had a good tambourine. That little Davy Jones is good tam player. | |
Speakers for a 15w 6v6 integrated amp? 15 watts will rock a Klipsch Heresy or Cornwall. For a more detailed sound the Triangles are also good but you'll need a sub. | |
room tuning 12ftx12ft room I'm a small room expert. Sebrof has it right, pull the speakers out into the room to kill the booming bass, just like any room. A foot or two forward will kill the bass. Small rooms usually have problems with bass cancellation, too much bass is ea... | |
Best LP since Waters left Pink Floyd? Get 'em all. | |
What does one purchase after owning horns? If you liked the sound of the Unos. It's going to be hard to find something that is better. Maybe a Klipschorn if you have the right room. The dynamics of a horn is hard to duplicate in a non-horn system. | |
Are The Klipsch Heritage Series Really Worthy? They are what they are, an easy to drive 3 way horn system. The trade off is frequency response and phase shifts. I love mine (H3s) but they are not in my main system. They will however add excitement to older recordings and are plenty good but th... | |
Could this be the next Frank Sinatra? Dwr has it right. | |
Avantgarde Uno's Or Klipsch La Scala MKII I don't have any direct experience but the Klipsch LaScalas are limited on both ends of the spectrum. But the Unos are quite a bit more money. The Unos I heard did not sound like my Klipsch, a totally different type of sound. I would try to listen... | |
the greatest pop song ever? Strawberry Fields/BeatlesHurdy Gurdy Man/DonovanMy two favorites. | |
moody blues vs rock hall of fame 03-02-11: Phaelon"The 70s without the Moody Blues? I cant even imagine that. Hell, it wouldnt have been the 70s without them." The 60's, if you were tuned in and turned on, man.....the 60s | |
So, what DON'T you spend money on? Wow, this does not sound like the sophisticated playboy image we are all supposed to have does it? Maybe the audio industry is not catering to the right audience. Kinda like selling chainsaws at the opera maybe? Thanx, Russ |
