CDE Mylars, stupid auto correct!
Disappointments
Have you ever auditioned some gear in a shop, bought it because you were thoroughly impressed, and felt it was a total letdown once you got it home?

I can honestly say "no". The only time I felt I took a risk was with my Acoustat 1+1s. The room I was going to put them in was too short heightwise. So I cut the ceiling drywall between the floor joists above to form a "trough" in the ceiling. I then finished the edges with wood trim and resprayed the popcorn. Looked like it was a deliberate feature. Talk about your "room treatments". They sounded pretty good but it wasn’t until I added an RH Labs sub that they really took off. Happy listening. |
Well, not so much showroom gear... but the places I deal with over sixty years, are better than I am at system design and give me the right to return non-performing stuff. They know my standard is to hear a positive difference right away. And generally, they sell systems at $250K and up. That said, I've bought some stuff, usually unheard, like some cables and power cords, that left me feeling flat when put in use. Never heard a difference with fuses either. |
And to keep this on topic the Flame Linear was a was a total letdown and meltdown.
