Ok. However, I have now decided that I will avoid tight speakers. Even if I really like them :-) Incidentally, I sold all of my Harbeths and added Dynaudio special forty to my small system. They are good and do not require much from either the...

Hello, With what speakers did the 509x match better ?

Thanks. Some day, if you have the opportunity to listen to the 509x on the sf, I shall be very interested in your feelings compare to the H 590.

Even Luxman 509 looks not enough powerful for SF Oly 3. Hegel 590 drives it well.

Hi Boris, I am late, sorry. You seem to be sad to leave your Luxman 590 ax2, not enough power for the SF. I wonder why the Luxman L 509X was not on your list.

Hi Emil, How do you find the U2 Mini compare to your Bluesound node? Does it sound better & how is the Lumin app compare to BluOS? Thanks.

Hi Everyone, Does the D2 & U2 Mini share the same power supply? Thinking of getting the U2 Mini but now abit scared after reading this thread. Thanks.

Hi Mike, I asked this question to Q3 (Jim) because he mentions the Diablo 300 in his signature (with 87 db speakers), and I think he was using the L 590 axII before ( with what speakers ?). At home, my Luxman (590 axII) matchs very well with a...

I dont think anyone here is going to try and convince you otherwise, but in my experience, I can easily tailor the final presentation with up stream components. What I cant do is change how quiet, powerful, refined and energetic the Accuphase amps...

I was just looking on the website for general information. Some models only gave power into one ohm and not much overall information on the amp. Thanks for your input. Other components may change the balance some in a system but I find amps...

I was there from late 1969 through 1972

Ahhh, the good old Southern. Do you remember their official slogan ? 'Give a green light to Inivation' Were you there during the time of Stanley Crane before he came to Conrail os our CEO ?

I worked for the Southern Railroad while in college. I was a yard switch man. It paid really well, but was very dangerous. In fact, I was inline waiting for an opening when one came open when a veteran switch man was killed on the job and others...

So very true. Apples apps, a huge can of spying worms . Apple caught spying on you again – iPhone data not safe - Cybershack

I owned the Revel Salon 2’s with Pass Lab’s XA-100.5 monoblocks for several years and it was some of the best sound I’ve heard in my listening room. The Salon 2’s are very neutral speakers with one of the flatter response curves measured by JA. They...

Respectfully, I worked in digital technologies for many years. Apple, like everyone else, absolutely does "spy". The difference is who they decide to sell that info to and how much of the info they sell. The amount of info available to us on...

What speakers? I would take a Luxman 590 or 509 myself. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Hi Q3, How is the Gryphon 300 compared to the Luxman class A ? With thanks.

if it was a device from any other brand than Apple , then yes. Apple NO...... they dont spy.

Agreed. He was. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

The name Florian sounds familiar. I think we both used to be members of some Apogee users' group.

That’s why we have Clarisys. Florian worked on Apogees for decades. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

touche' :D

I would love to hear them. I used to have Apogee Stages and Mini Grands. A friend had Grands and another friend had Divas. I wish Apogee had survived to evolve with new technology and materials.

Very valid point. I have been using an Accuphase A70 as my main amp. It is a Class A amp but With an Ayre KXR 20 preamp, the bass is thundering and very well defined — just as good as the Gryphon Diablo 300. The Big Accuphase amps are transparent...

Yes. It’s just a sample to show. These are the copper returns. The ribbons are segmented into traces and the signal has to come down again. It’s copper foil in lieu of cheap copper cables. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Mike, What is the rat's nest at the bottom? Is that extra to connect to the rest of the speaker?

Tweeter and midrange. In the Auditorium, it has a separate tweeter ribbon, a separate midrange ribbon and a separate bass ribbon. All models above the Minuet have external crossovers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Mike i see where you said that its mid/twt ,or is this midrange only as its pretty wide ..? Regards

Sorry - I have no idea what you are trying to say. Who said anything about not using or trusting your ears? Cheers

Kinda a two edge sword here. If you dealer lets you trial it at home, you can trust your ears and your dealer.

Where are you looking? I currently own a pair of P7500 in mono and a pair of A300… so I have more experience than 99% of the Accu Dealers in NA. So what are you after and what matters to you? Also, why do people forget to mention the rest of...

Mep. Agreed. Strongly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

This is the ribbon tweeter/midrange from the Clarisys Audio Studio Plus Neo. Note the 6 traces. The Minuet has 5 traces, the Studio Plus has 6 traces and the Auditorium has 7 traces. The more traces, the wider the ribbons. Conversely, the...

So did you take this “unbeatable” offer?

Sure, in that case make sure youre trusting your ears at home in your own environment and at leasure. Meaning youll need to borrow gear for a week or so… not many have that option.

That is quite helpful actually , I will go through that thread this morning. I did put an email into ABC but have not had a response as yet and clearly as you indicate there may be good reason for that. I haven’t been an active member here...

I thought was most important to 'trust your ears' first ? ! :skeptical:

This morning I awoke to the ASR bombing campaign. They must have shared the link on my vid as I awoke to a dozen nasty, vile comments and threats within a short period of time. I guess facts hurt them as some literally said there is no such...

I hope it's ok to link to another Forum, there's 17 pages about the LS80 here.... EWA LS80 speaker cables | pink fish media There was a loan scheme going on but not sure if it still is and I don't think they were sending out long lengths. ...

So true!!!!

Look forward to the show. Always a very friendly environment with plenty of good systems and audio friends. And, this will be the largest yet!

THIS is one of the reasons why it's so important to have a dealer you trust.

Hey thanks Jack, I'm into my third year now and fully adjusted, LOL !! I have to admit though, I do spend some time on virtual railfan ......... Fairport, New York, USA (East) | Virtual Railfan LIVE - YouTube
