Those numbers are total fiction ...!

Actually last 30 yrs

A 10 year average has nothing to do with current realities, or in this case, the past 24 months. The past two years inflation has gone from 1.5% to 8%. The CPI average has risen nearly 13% in the past 2 years. Butter and Eggs have risen 51% and...

Has anyone for half a second stopped to think of things a different way with respect to the new S3? The reality is, the new S3 is FAR closer to an M3 than it’s predecessor. Diamond coated beryllium tweeter, far heavier speaker with higher grade...

Current rate prices will double every 7 yrs ..!

Cables I’ll leave alone. But generally, everything is affected by inflation. Everything. The bulk dog food we buy was always $99. For years. It’s now $140. It went $120, $130, $140. Inflation is the biggest middle class tax. Look at the price...

The ongoing effects of runaway inflation are causing a distortion in our price perception. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Lets reverse engineer this argument , :) Who here would buy a lesser known and cheaper speaker than what they currently have because it sounded better ..? The End ...!

GM has already shown the auto industry the model on how to break the union , tried and tested by United before them and will surely be applied again in Bankruptcy court after the next lock down ..! BTW union heads got bigger increases than...

It sure is pretty! LOL. We haven’t connected it. We’ve been busy with demos. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Oh yeah. It’s not as good as M3, but it’s amazing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Our pair has now been playing for nearly 2 weeks. 24/7. They are so so so enjoyable. A real slightly warm, very organic, natural sound. As good as the previous iterations of the S3 were, these are clearly superior in every conceivable...

The problem started by and in Washington DC , all by design , the greatest transfer of wealth is going into DC ..!!!

I was offered a white background and I didn’t want it. I like the black background. What’s funny is that the online/print mags are asking for “glam shots” to accompany the reviews. Guess they don’t like my poor iPhone photos. Sent...

Is this the one rated at 60 watts class A at 4 ohm ..?

Yes if you mean 15/15 to equal 30 watts and not 30/30 , @30/30 it would be a toaster and frankly those heatsinks would be too small to contain .. Regards

Yes, the monos will ruin you! They are sooooooo good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I completely agree! They’re one of two of my favorite amps in the store. And clearly the Master 300’s are best looking! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Those B&W ‘s are very power hungry, so not surprised ..!

That kind of Ethos Mostly aligns itself with subjective only type reviews ..!

Trust the measurements , yes somewhat .. interpretation , slightly ..... as omission is necessary to protect the innocent , Lol :) I’m not a fan of purely subjective reviews , really a waste of time IMO , Stereophile type review methods...

This is very much not true , the only thing measuring wont tell you is what or which version you will subjectively like or not ..! The issue today is most published measurements are done to compliment components via omission instead of exposing the...

Measuring outdoors can be very accurate unlike measuring indoors which is very inaccurate .. Regards

Its quite possible in his or most setups all would sound very similar, plenty SS Dacs do have similar traits and in a lower level system can sound very similar..!

If Kingsrule says he’s a miserable SOB , dont take it lightly ..!!! Regards

It’s officially called “pewter”, now to be called “Graphite Grey”. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

Oh right. That was one of the two biggest fools on YouTube. So many of these fools trying to make a name for themselves by spouting nonsense and some of them love to spout lies. Heard the biggest fool the other day say “Vitus is bright….but I’ve...

Was this the fool that trashed NAIM or was that someone else? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

All SS amplifiers transitions to Class B from Class A once pass quiescent Bias , on the Luxman i think its at 15 watts or less..! Above this is Class B operation ..! Regards

You had one bad experience with one product. You should see what I see in a daily basis from dozens of brands. I had stupid SimAudio explaining that the reason the customers CD player went bad was because he clearly must have plugged the RCA...

It seems you have had only one mission on this forum and that is to trash Lumin. You’re a troll. All of your posts are trashing Lumin. You contribute nothing else. In contrast, there are thousands of happy Lumin customers who would strongly...

Thanks for the post and pics , great stuff ..!
