What have you tried in that room: Ninka, Kan, Kan II, Tukan/Katan?, Majik 109?, Majik 140?, Keilidh?, 212, Saras, don't know if you tried the 'bariks in there, Komponent?, Series 3?, JBL LSR308, and others: there were some Naims as well, iirc... Given how relatively simple it has been to dial in you...

I had the same thought, John. Not going to spend £50k/$60k to find out... Hope it sounds better than it looks.

Curious way to celebrate a 50th anniversary; like paying for your wife to get a facelift that doesn't suit her... :/

Prefer 1 - there's more time for musicianship and interplay to develop...

2 - more drive, but feel a bit rushed, and less interesting musically.

Thanks folks. Moved the speakers further apart which has helped the music breathe a bit more. I'm sure it could be better and always glad for critical comments, as long as they are kind :) These are with Blacks, right? Good timing but missing the body - I've preferred floorstander over bookshelf in...

Interesting. I hear ... Silver is more tuneful Black has better timing Problem for me is that the lack of timing with Silver affects the overall interplay just a bit more than the (relative) lack of performance in the voice with the Black. The tune is carried by both aspects to my mind which seems ...

Before had Silvers After has Blacks Sting with Silvers just for you! https://www.dropbox.com/s/dxlzpundd23oi9j/20230614_145221.mp4?dl=0 Blacks vs Silvers is just different to my ears. Each is musically better than the other - just in different ways. Pain really. I wish I was someone more one end or...

Are these clips all (back to) Black interconnects or Silver before; Black after as well as the speaker position change?

Just updated from .42 to 8.8.43; already being offered 8.8.44 - just a 'psa' to be aware of what version you're on/updating to as .44 may supercede .43 in available updates soon if they don't need to be applied sequentially... I've turned *off* auto updates after getting .43 to listen to the recomme...

.. he was approved with the highest grade!

I can imagine... What a wonderful achievement. Thanks for sharing.

They say: if you have to ask, you can't afford it... Either that or the seller didn't list a price 😉😁

That clip is from long before he was admitted to the conservatory. So he’s on a new level now.

Would love to listen to a new clip if you (& your son) are comfortable posting here. Congratulations to him (& you) on his graduation!

Idiomatically, "if it looks like a duck and walks like a duck, it is a duck" Nothing about 'if it sounds like a duck', much less a musical one... If they've overcooked it, after 50yrs, you might be better with sauce first 🦆

Interesting - how do you make sure there's even pressure at each corner, and level speakers or stand on balls instead of spikes?

I assume you have tried: Giella PI-Lingo 2-Slipsik 8-space-TM2-TM2, and Giella PI-Slipsik 8-Lingo 2-space-TM2-TM2 ? Preferred the latter, as it was before Thought "as it was before" was Slipsik 1st? :-? .. preferred slipsik/giella pi/lingo2/space/tm2/tm2 To slipsik/giella pi/space/lingo2/tm2/tm2

The 100mm spacing hasn’t been verified as the best spacing, and isn’t a hard and fast rule. Initially, I tried three distances, 0mm, roughly 200mm and roughly 50mm, all measured by eye. Having a space between Källa and Boazu seemed to work the best, so I wondered if increasing the space would make ...

Question to markiteight & ThomasOK, primarily, regarding the US power cord for a Cablepro: I know Fredrik recommends shorter (2'), heavier (14) gauge, and that Volex tends to be preferred, but the ready-made 2 ft Volex only seems to be available in 16ga. Have either of you, or anyone tried the P007-...

I had it wrong too: I had moved Kalla as well as TMs so my Lejonklou electronics are currently plugged in as in the 'to try' orientation... With the internal wiring of the Cablepro (live & neutral) arranged as it is, I don't know that it can reveal the musical benefit of Spannko's findings unless re...

In UK & EU power strips, are the internals wired as individual outlets? The Ikea power strips are brass bars, while the Cablepro are wired duplex outlets. Looking to understand whether it's the wiring that matters, or the spacing, or both... With the duplex outlets in the Cablepro there's limited fl...

(after that it was 2B, or not to 2B? ;)

1A is K20 an 1B is K400. I thought folks might be interested so I posted them but for me the K400 clearly works better with the 212s. This is why I recorded up close so you couldn't see the cables... Thanks everyone for listening as always. PS After these clips, I swapped the decks over from 1992-s...

Comparison 1 is pretty clear to me, but hearing pro's and con's in the second comparison... The way you phrased it I wasn't sure if you wanted confirmation on 1, and we're looking for opinions on 2, or just wanted help with 2... Since you said 1 was obvious, I thought B then Began convincing myself...

Thank you for the suggestion! I currently don't know whether this is possible without making a whole new theme with inverted colours. But I will have a look around and see if anyone else has dived into this. Only if it's simple - I don't want to incur the wrath of anyone on the waiting list by dela...

Not an "issue", more a feature request: would it be possible to add a dark mode/theme as an option to be able to choose between the fresh white, or a less visually bright presentation? If it's there already I couldn't find it...

The clips were recorded with 10 days 24/7 playing, so I think they were fully settled, at least I couldn’t here difference they day following

Thanks for confirming 👍

These are Marco’s units I had the opportunity to run them in and compare while he had short holiday Thanks for posting, Sopper. Very interesting & informative to hear the differences across a range of tracks, and really helpful especially with the clips so consistently recorded… There’s been mentio...
