Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: bob,..

Venice, CA: Accuphase CDP, Blue Circle BC3000 and BC2.1's, Spendor SP 1/2's and SP 100's, around an hour and a half, c. 1992?

Montreal show: Naim CDX, Berning amp, around an hour, later that decade.

And yes, I did pop in at RMAF this year, but just to say hello and see if the brief impression I got was any different from the earlier, more studied ones.

I have no bone to pick with you or Merlin, just trying to account in some concrete way for what it is that folks are hearing from your speakers, which are so different from what I'm used to. "From what I'm used to." I don't underestimate the significance of that remark!

When I come home from a live concert (local recital hall, Snape Maltings in Aldebergh, England), I have a sound in ears. And that's the one I pursue. Just like everybody else, including you. As I just said to DK, it is mind boggling how such different sounds (Merlin, JMR, Audio Note, Harbeth, Spendor, Thiel) can yield the same results in different ears. Bobby, Jean Marie, Peter, Alan, Jim all appear to be correct. Mind boggling, absolutely.
