| Spendor D7 We learned long ago that there are no absolutes in audio. Speaker X may be "brilliant" to one set of ears and much less so to another.If several people concur that a given speaker is good, then it may be worth seeking out to give it an audition, t... | |
| Great musicians who should have been famous except.... Bring back Gene Krupa! | |
| Bookshelf Bake Off Check out Fritz speakers. You’ll be glad you did. Search commentary on them on this site.You could also look at Silverline, another fine brand. | |
| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers Graham are very much in the "thin wall" vein of Harbeth and the "classic" Spendor line. They make a 5/8 and a 5/9. They are also about to introduce a re-engineered 5/5, with the famous BBC slot, that will use a 3-driver complement similar to the... | |

| Pin point imaging isn't for everyone GK brings up an interesting point, but it's more complicated than that. On many good piano recordings you can tell from what vantage point the piano has been recorded, the two most frequent perspectives being from the side (lid open to mikes), an... | |

| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers Has anybody other than me actually ever heard the Spendor Classic 100?

| wide baffles and baffle step Yes, I've looked at the Troels GravesEn "Poor Man's Stradivari" more than once. Anyone on here build or own one of his designs? | |
| Any Love For Bryston Here? My impression is that Bryston has the reputation of producing very well engineered, neutral amps, the larger models being very powerful and all of which will go the long haul. But on A'gon whenever anybody asks about, say, Bryston vs. Pass, the P... | |
| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers Last time I was at Command Performance (in Wash DC suburbs) they had both Super Nines and X's on the floor. Unfortunately I didn't audition either--heard the O93's, Contour 60 and Kanta 2 that day. The Super Nines were on display at the Capital ... | |
