| comparing monitors Consider the Stone Image Rothschilde A2 Monitors. They are outstanding for the price and Jimmy R is a pleasure to work with.http://www.mathura-audio.com/Rothschilde.htm | |
| Glenn Croft Integrated I own the Croft Integrated. It's a terrific little amp but with modest power. {The eminentaudio.co.uk has a review by Ken Kessler.} It's good in all areas of sound production but not the best in bass slam. The midrange is particularly good. The to... | |

| Big Stupid Warm Speakers A big but not stupied recommendation would be Tannoy DC's. If you have the bucks snd space go for the 15" There have been some nice ones on Audiogon recently. | |
| UNICO: Can it Serve as a Preamplifier? The Unico does not have pre-outs. | |
| Who makes a "true" Transmission Line speaker?... TDL has been out of business for sometime now. John Wright, 1939-1999, was the head of the company. He previously worked with Bud Fried, when Fried had an interest in IMF loudspeakers. | |

| Got my very first system. What's my next move? Sell all of it immediately on audiogon or ebay and start all over again looking for perfection. This is the only way to becoming a member of the audio nervosa club :-) | |

I like these speakers with Naim, Lfd, McIntosh and Karan. Tubes are great especially vocals; but I felt... | |
| Anyone in Vegas listen to the Gilmore speakers??? Tireguy, you're right. John Holmes is dead. He was buried face-down over a well. | |
| Air Velocity Transformer: Is This A Solid Theory? Yes, the theory is sound. In addition to Oskar, Elac also produces an AVT devise based on Dr Heil's original design called the JET. There is both information and reviews on their site. http://www.elac.com/. | |
| Energy Veritas 2.1 sound too lean Energy speakers are clean, clinical. They are not warm at all. I also believe the Creek amp tends to the brighter side. So your problem may be one of systems matching. Before you do anything though, break-in the Energy loudspeakers which takes at ... | |
| energy veritas 2.4i Energy speakers are rather notorious for long break-in times, usually 200 to 300 hours. Energy are not a romantic, warm speaker but rather clinical and precise in their presentation. You may want to listen to some of the British designs, if you pr... |
