Review: DCM TimeWindow 1 Speaker
I mistakenly kept a subtitle on previous post. The Time Windows are in perfect position for me. The Tannoys make great stands. They are still useful. Have no complaints about concrete slabs. 
Review: DCM TimeWindow 1 Speaker
I am using concrete locks sandwiched above and below a pair of Tannoy Mercury M2s. Those Tannoys are just the right height. They make great stands. They have no other use than to support the Time Windows. 
Review: Sonographe SC-1 Preamplifier
I enjoyed this review. It does seem hard to beat this model. At a used price this seems like a no brainer if you are lucky to find one. 
Review: DCM TimeWindow 1 Speaker
I have a much more confined listening space but I also believe I am now getting the best possible performance out of my Time Windows. I have owned mine since 1982 and only now am I beginning to hear even more soundstaging and imaging capabilities ... 
Review: DCM TimeWindow 1 Speaker
I have reconnected my Time Windows after three or four months of listening to the Dynaudio Audience 42s. I find the overall performance of the Time Window to be as enjoyable as ever. I have actually rasied the speakers on solid stands roughly 18 i... 
Review: DCM TimeWindow 1 Speaker
I have now been listening again to the Time Window for a five day period, after switching from the Dynaudio Audience 42. One thing for sure, the Time Window is capable of some very nice bass output, which sets it apart immediately from the Audienc... 
Review: DCM TimeWindow 1 Speaker
Thanks to anthropy for the updated info on DCM in its current state. I have checked the DCM website and the new speake line looks impressive. Those two floorstanding models appear to be very solidly thought out and constructed. I hope the current ... 
Review: DCM TimeWindow 1 Speaker
I have added my comments much earlier in this thread. But I am truly surprised to see so many others who feel about the Time Windows the way I do. This definitely speaks to the overall musicality of this great speaker. I have been enjoying my Dyna... 
Review: DCM TimeWindow 1 Speaker
Yes, Ferrari, the LS3/5A is a 16 ohm load. Personally I think they are more trouble than they are worth. They have a real dedicated following, which tells you the speaker is definitely solid in most key areas of performance. But I think the Time W... 
Review: DCM TimeWindow 1 Speaker
The guy who originally sold me my pair of Time Windows back in 1982 still has a pair of the legendary Rogers LS3/5A speakers. I think for the most part the two speakers share the same basic tonal balance, although the extreme spaciousness of the T... 
Review: Arcam CD 73 CD Player
I could not agree more with the reviews of the Arcam CD73 player. There is no greater bang for the buck than this unit provides. Thank goodness for a company like Arcam, which brings high performance within reach for so many. The essential musical... 
Review: Totem Acoustics Model 1 Monitor
I think Totem produces one of the finest lines of speakers on the market today, and have always been impressed with the Model One. This is a great example of thoughtful design, with nothing added on that has no real purpose. Especially admire the ... 
Best Quality Recording On Vynil
I once owned an early, early copy of "Dark Side of the Moon" when it was first released. I was just a college sophomore when I bought it. Somehwere along the way, I decided to include it among a ton of albums I sold to Aron's Records in Hollywood.... 
Review: DCM TimeWindow 1 Speaker
Amen to the last post. I was earlier thinking I might want to sell my Time Windows. But after spending the month of February listening to them again, I no longer feel like selling. It would be hard to find an equivalent speaker on today's market, ... 
Essential Classical
The Philips Berlioz cycle of the 70s included a very fine "Harold in Italy" with Colin Davis conducting I believe the London Symphony Orchestra, and soloist Nobuko Imai. The LP issue was 1975-76. Great sounding recording, too. The complete "Beneve...
