| Room Acoustics If you sell your speakers, let me know! | |
| Room Acoustics $4700 retail in ASC traps and still a bass problem? Is there something wrong with that picture?....some good suggestions though from those up above...good luck. | |
| Blue Circle BC3 Galatea - thoughts I have to disagree with Bob. My pre does anything BUT hold back the music, it gives me a more pleasing "musical" sound as opposed to the clear, "hifi" hear every little tick and twang kinda sound. I'm not bagging on the bc3, I think it is an excel... | |
| The most beautiful Integrated Tube amp? Manley Labs Stingray | |
| Blue Circle BC3 Galatea - thoughts I demo'd the BC3 Despina, and although I liked it, I wasn't totally shocked by it's performance....I'm still keeping my BelCanto SEP1. The BC3 is more transparent and revealing, but in my system, I prefered the smoother midrange and slight bloomin... | |
| Bass traps/room treatments I looked at the ASC website.......$678 for a 20x4' trap? and I'll need how many in each corner?I'm estimating $1500-2000 easy in treatments!!! seems insane, but then again, I have about $15k in gear. Let me take a few shots before I call ASC. | |

| 6922 tube rolling recommendations Thanks for all of your responses.....Longplate has been so gracious as to hook me up with some spare amperex tubes....cool deal. Rayhall....I agree with you on system synergy...I'm most likely changing amps soon (SS to SET...big change), so I'll n... | |
| Would I benefit from biamping? I upgraded my system from one stereo 100w amp (muse100) to a vertical biamp setup. One 100w amp powered my speakers fine...I really didn't need the extra power...but in adding the 2nd amp, the soundstage got wider, deeper, more 3 dimensional...in ... | |
| Kimber BiFocal XL - Any good? Thoughs? I use the Monocle XL..in two runs (my speakers are biamped)The Kimbers outperformed the JPS labs superconductor plus and the Dunlavy Audio speaker cables that I auditioned also.....I did not audition the KS3033......perhaps some day I will.I broug... |
