| What are your favorite songs or albums for illustrating a deep soundstage? "What now my love" A hipped up, jazzy cover by The Peddlers, Tidal/Masters. | |
| Full range speakers, 40"-44" max height @elliottbnewcombjr . Speed of sound is the same for all frequencies. Sloped baffle is for time aligning drivers. | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @donavabdear Last year's AXPONA had Avantgarde playing their Trio model fully active w/sub......amazing....must audition.....SPENDY! Hope it is there this spring. I never cared for the sound of horns in general until hearing that system as well as... | |

| Coaxials - Reality vs. Experience? OOPS. After reading the previous few posts. I should make a correction. I know you are a pretty sharp guy! | |
| Coaxials - Reality vs. Experience? I managed to wrestle the keyboard from my wife😅. @herbreichert C'mon, Herb none of this false modesty! You know we know you're a pretty sharp guy! I Know old wisdom says not to let on how smart one really is 😉. Can we get some initial impressions... | |
| Coaxials - Reality vs. Experience? @mulveling I have no problem with the assist. I respect your thoughtful/experience based opinions. I am referencing the majority of coaxials on the market (home hifi not the old Jensen co/tri-axials of yore). Examples, as have been mentioned by ot... | |
| Coaxials - Reality vs. Experience? @erik_squires The main design objective/benefit of a D'Appolito array is to mimic a point source. Benefits that inherently follow are higher power handling (plays louder) and lessening of the potential impact of floor and ceiling reflections due t... | |
| Coaxials - Reality vs. Experience? @headphonedreams great call on the Cabasse. A truly remarkable system (fully active, dsp)! Heard it at AXPONA. Suggest for anyone mildly interested in audio engineering marvels/curiosities/design to audition these. You will probably be stunned (as... | |
| Coaxials - Reality vs. Experience? To add clarity, concentric is a subset of coaxial. In other words, all concentric drivers are coaxial but not all coaxial drivers are concentric. @erik_squires Pardon the presumption; you are probably referencing most designs intended for the hifi... | |
| DecWare 300B amp @oddiofyl No question that people are changing, my point is that most (not all) that are changing aren't going from a $1200 order to a $6000 order. I will try to get accurate numbers. Will report if I am wildly in error. Treat yourself. Go to Eas... | |
| DecWare 300B amp As @brockwired, I heard the Sarah 300b in October as well (perhaps we chatted), and I agree it is worth the wait. All the Decware amplifiers are quite good. The caveat being that you pair them with appropriately sensitive speakers. Referencing s... | |
| OMG. What now? @hilde45 Spoken like a true psychologist......recovering or practicing? 👍 | |

| FREE - THIEL CS 2_2 to a Good Home Such a lovely gesture @rop45 ! Also, thanks for taking me back to the mid/late 80's when I thoroughly loved my new CS2 speakers driven by an Aragon 4004 and CJ PV10 (mentioned for the synergy). Enjoy your good fortune, @chief4425 ! |
