| Need wiring diagram for Neutrix connector to REL T7 sub Hey Wolf,Thanks for chiming it. I got a diagram from Neutrik which helped me determine which was 1+, 2+, and 1-.... there are no markings on the plug to identify which was which. So, I got it wired up properly and am loving the addition of the s... | |
| My New Review of the Spatial Hologram M4 Open Baffle Speaker Lad,This thread is stale, but I thought I'd chime in as an M4 Turbo S owner with now about 200 hours on them and they simply wonderful. I hooked up my REL T-7 sub and it sure fills out that the lower octave in a way that makes the sound presentat... | |
| Spatial Audio Hologram M4 Turbo S Speakers - A Review Well, I listen to 90% acoustic jazz and some classical music. And a bit of blues. I found no deficiencies playing The Who "Who's Next". Diana Krall's voice sounds just right to my ears with the M4's. Thinking back to my Cornscala's (modified Co... | |
| Spatial Audio Hologram M4 Turbo S Speakers - A Review Veroman,To the contrary, they are very easy to drive. The 5 wpc tube amp had plenty of headroom. With my CJ amp, the volume pot on my preamp never gets past 9:00 to create a substantial SPL. | |
| Determining current flow to install "audiophile" fuses. Gents,I stuck my neck into the "Red Fuse" debate recently and it found it fruitless. This fuse "direction" debate is even more absurd. Lots of educated folks propound evidence that it is BS with AC current. All smart guys know that to be the case.... | |
| New blog post on the Fritz Carrera Rev 7 BE Rebbi.I didn't see the price for the Fritz speakers you so adroitly reviewed. My M4's have about the same number of hours and once they hit 50 hours, they really started to bloom. My tube muse, Don Sachs, is going to build a KT66-based amp for ... | |
| Looking for the good sounding Pre Amplifier Check out Don Sach's tube preamp (google his name). It is the best I have ever had in my system. There is magic in his octal-tube design for under $2K. I prefer a tube preamp/solid state amp pairing for the best of both worlds! | |
| New blog post on the Fritz Carrera Rev 7 BE Two of the nicest guys in the audio business are Clayton Shaw and Fritz. I have the Spatial M4's and they may end my quest for the ultimate speaker at anywhere near its price point. They are my first OB speaker and I thought I would never upgrad... | |
| Oh brother, am I in desperate need of help! 8) After having several of the speakers you mentioned, I am a big fan of the Holograms, having the M4's. Similarly-price Maggie's will not have nearly the visceral impact of the Holograms and to wit, mine sound great just 2-3' from the rear wall. I... | |
| klipschorns, they kick ass for sure Re, Wester17's post above, I l recently landed on the Spatial Audio M4 speakers, the little brother's to his M3's. I completely agree that they are very special speaker, truly, and my first foray into OB speakers. They are a stunning value, too,... | |
| Where do you guys buy tubes? Great suggestions above, pretty well covering the gamut of reputable sellers. Jim McShane is the best of the best in my view. There are lots of good prices from tube sellers on e-bay, but it is very easy to get burned there. It is hard to separ... | |
| Shopping for a preamp I absolutely second the post from russbutton above. However, Don Sachs Consulting takes the basic 6SN7 actual tube design of the SP14 to a much higher degree with his custom version, using the 64 step Khozmo pot and Mundorf silver oil caps. It be... | |
| interconnect choice Morrow Audio has excellent IC's at several price ranges. Also, Grover Huffman makes some excellent IC's that are beautifully constructed. I am one who thinks the "law of diminishing returns" is applicable to audio cables, so if you decide to buy... | |
| Integrated recommendation help If you prefer SS gear, buy as good a Hegel integrated as you can afford. I heard a three of them demonstrated, from the least to the more expensive at an audio show, and while the least expensive amp sounded gear, the two successive sounded incre... | |
| Good used Pre-Amp? Price Range $1500.00 to $2000.00 I have a great recommendation in your price range... or any price range. Don Sach's tube preamp, based around octal tubes (6SN7's), is a glimpse of heaven for under $2K. It is better than a fully rehabbed Harman Kardon Citation I and is quick, l... |
