ML sounds thin with some SS amps, especially class AB. All planars are very sensitive to amps and room. Apogees too can sound sh*t and awesome, and with planars there is a problem with rear wave and bass nulls in a room. MLs do not sound thin with push pull valves, and with some class A. You...

What's your room size?

More like his belief that he understands the science.

Congrats - some good audiophiles in New Mexico. Is that before or after the wall :confused:

Nicely done - you should experiment with and without the 244 and the bass traps, you probably have already. When I had the Summits, I spiked them on the Auralex Gramma pads, which cost roughly 70 quid. It was superb, much better than spiking them directly onto the carpet or on Granite, or...

Hi I had problems with the downward firing woofers in London, as the sound was going to the neighbours below. Had to do a few things like get Auralex Gramma and below that have mats which are used under washing machines to keep vibrations from going below to the neighbors.

They are dann funny though

No you were grudgingly admitting such cables work and that you were wrong about calling them foo

Actually you did and acknowledged it. This wasn't last trip, the one before that.

You had a big difference when I had inserted the Tara Cobalt power cable into your Lampi

This fuller midrange and midbass is the exact same quality 3 of us here in London get from Tara's power cable (Cobalt). Wrongly matched, it can darken the sound though.

Hi, I found GIK absorbers made my sound behind Logans lifeless. I took them off. The diffusers made the sound weird. I had light absorbers behind my listening position which worked fine. Reflecting the rear way to create a pseudo soundstage was relatively a much better alternative. W.r.t...

I thought he was referring to Detlof and not me. Even if it was me, then well, I am not married

For an 80 year old, that's a good thing

Who cares? As of now, I am enjoying the ride. If I had the money and the space, Mike Lavigne's system with a Western Electric firing down the other line. But that requires his room and tweaks. Or Apogee Grands and WE. With a Thorens reference, Techdas, and Zyx Universe Premium. Aesthetix...
