| Vandersteen-like "In-between" speakers For $4800 retail, you could opt for a pair of Cabasse Egea II's. They produce a true and beautiful tonal quality and an awesome sound stage. They are 93 db efficient which is an easy load to drive. Check them out. You won't be disappointed. | |
| Best all around box speaker between 15K and 25K Add the Cabasse Kara's for $14K to your list for consideration. | |
| What Instrument do You Play? All percussion instruments. High School Band. College Band. Navy School of Music. US Naval Academy Band, etc. Like mostly classical, movie soundtracks. | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? The Wisdom Audio M-75's with the Parasound JC-1 amplifiers (4) Monos make a very serious statement in High-end audio. Another very impressive speaker line is the Acapella. These speakers are made in Germany. They utilize the Ionic Tweeter that pro... | |

I have also heard these speakers with the Rogue Audio tube gear. The sound was also very good. They are wonderful speakers. You are t... | |
| Audio Physic & Jeff Rowland I am running the Audio Physic Virgo III with a Rowland Amp. It is a great sound. Your amp will probably mate very nicely with any of the Audio Physic speakers. | |
| WOOLCOT AMPS - Anybody heard these? These are Wolcot not Woolcot amps. Yes, I used to own a pair of these amps. They are very liner and neutral. They mate very well with Sound Lab speakers or Quad speakers. They didn't work well with the Wisdom Audio speakers(which are what I'm curr... | |
| Are You Addicted to Audio? Have you heard, tried, thought about the Wisdom Audio speakers? They will play as loud as you want with the transparency of an electrostat. | |
| Where to buy lead shot I buy my lead shot from Carter Country in Houston. This is a speciality store for guns, ammuniation, and other out door activities i.e. fising. I would recommend that you use half sand and half shot for your stands. Less expensive than using all s... | |
| Amps: Bryston vs Electrocompaniet I would recommend you trying the Plinus SA100 MKIIIor the Electrocompaniet - they sound like the "real thing". Another possibility for you current loving speakers would be the Bear Labs Symphony No. 1. Good luck!! Jim |
