| Visited a Store and was shunned I live out in the Chicago suburbs and while we no longer have hifi shops in every strip mall, we've got a few. I'd walk into any of the shops after work wearing my day glo tee shirt, hard tat head 'hair' and be treated like i matter. Anyone in sa... | |
| Why for the life of me I can’t stay awake when listening to Music? I was just going to suggest smoking less weed during listening sessions:). Seriously tho' I think it's a compliment to your system. | |
| $35000 to $40,000. speakers what would you buy and why? Is playing darts in the dark! Has anyone on this thread brought home a pair of speakers that ended up sounding like they did in the demo that attracted them? I went to axpona again this year, most rooms over used subs to the point of making the de... | |
| the one that got away - how do you handle grief? I've got a few speakers on my bucket list that I ultimately let get away because they're farther away than I'm willing to drive to and then I promise myself Next time! and on it goes. More recently I'm noticing things like component synergy, sizin... | |
| KEF Blade One (non-meta) vs One Meta vs Blade 2 for large room Once I get used to a 'house sound' it becomes the norm for me. My first ambitious speaker purchase was the KEF R105/3 and when I tried to replace them after 25 years use everything I brought in sounded a bit off. Is no surprise I landed on the Bla... | |
| TAD Reference loudspeakers-How good are they? Bump, damn near 10 years since last post here. I'm curious of the size of listening rooms owners find the R1 so appealing. I've read toe in is critical and pics generally show speakers spaced quite far apart. tia | |
| which speaker is better suited for Rock and Roll I've always pined for SF, but I see their price tag and I hear my dad's voice in my head. I've always compromised to quiet that side of my brain, but if I can ever move my DSP's I'm finally gonna scratch that itch. | |
| What if there were no more new speaker models? There’s plenty of unobtanium out there already. As current pricing goes I can’t either afford or justify buying the new stuff I want until it’s been out about a decade. TBH room treatments by someone who knows what they’re doing would likely serve... | |
| My new speakers Congrats on your new speakers and I hope they continue to satisfy | |
| My new speakers Well, pm me about the Dave, no chord dealers locally and I think the dave would be an upgrade for me. | |
| New JBL Summit models, Makalu, Pumori, and Ama. bump, The Summit line were on display at Azpona 26 and I came in and got to hear the Pumori's playing some Sgt peppers LHCB and I was captivated, def worth looking into. These days $30k usd is average | |
| KEF207/2: tri-wiring and amp questions This thread went 16 years without a reply!!! It happens | |
| What is the most preferred revel or jbl speaker you have owned and why do you prefer it The JBL Summit Pumona I believe was the one. So far the only places I find to purchase are online retailers and now I'm looking for an independent shop. | |
| KEF Blade One (non-meta) vs One Meta vs Blade 2 for large room I’m using the Mac mc611’s but I was using the hegel h590 awhile and the only time I really notice a difference is at lower volumes. The blades could sound a bit too smooth with the hegel, amazing control, but the mac gave the bass more detail and ... | |
| Sonus faber - Amati suprema? SF has always been among the pricier brands, but also the most desirable. I would love to own a pair. |
