Are 6 figure speakers ever Close to being worth it?

So while I was researching the Sonus Fabre Guarneri Homage which I would love the opportunity just to listen to however nobody has these, I found a pair of Sonus Fabre Fenice speakers for sale. The seller is asking $78,000, original retail $200,000. While reading the spec sheet for the speakers, it ...

Re: SINGularity

Congratulations Fredrik! I know you’ve been working very hard on this product. Forgive me, but have I missed photos of this wonderful preamp? I’m actually somewhat pleased at the retail for the mono pr as it’s not something I will be able to afford any time soon (2 teenage boys/college).. however I’...

Recommendations for wireless headset?

So I’d really like the ability to listen to music without the rest of the house having to listen. My listening position is about 12’ from components. Is there a product I can get that allows wireless (simply don’t want to run a 12-15 foot cord across room). Also do I need to get a headphone amp? Ide...

Re: ThomasOK's System

Also +1 for 2nd clip. Not only was it simply more enjoyable, I heard what I think (tough to tell listening on iPhone) “ghost notes” (I think that’s what they are called). Drum notes used in between notes, very lightly played, for the drummer to maintain timing/tempo. John Bonham was known to do this...

Re: Linn announcements 9/2018, Selekt, etc.

Wow. How great is the tune method! Two 30 second clips.. not necessary.. could tell the difference with maybe 5-7 seconds. Linn struck out!

Shorter pressing process

Does anyone have any experience with these “special releases”.

Looks like one of the steps in pressing process has been eliminated. Anxious to hear any feedback from the group

Sagatun stereo and KK

I haven’t been able to find anything by searching forum. Has anyone listened to sagatun stereo vs. KK1/d? I have no doubt sagatun monos wall all over KK1/d.. I’d love to hear how the stereo compares.

Thanks,
Jon

Re: Does clearer lyrics = better tune?

Thanks for your response Spannko. Logically I struggle that easier to understand lyrics don’t result in better tune. I’m not disagreeing with you at all. My thought process is if lyrics are now easier to understand, wouldn’t the tune be better as more information is being presented than before?

Does clearer lyrics = better tune?

If a minor tweak/upgrade is made (not talking actual components/boxes here) and I can now finally understand lyrics that I was unable to previously, does this mean the tune is better? Can the fact that it’s easier to hear the words in a song Not improve or even hurt the tune? I hope this made sense....

Re: 242 3k array torque settings?

Thank you for your quick reply. Clearly I had tunnel vision and was too focused on the fact that I had a different brand driver than what was referenced. Are there any optimal torque settings for other parts of equipment at or below .5NM which would allow me to actually use this driver?

So, thank you to all who responded with such detail. I apologize, I forgot I obtained a torque driver some time ago. It is a Sealey 1/4” Hex drive digital torque screwdriver .05-.5NM. Model STS103. I’m hesitant to try and adjust 3K array without knowing what setting as with my luck I’d overtighten a...

Ozzy, I’m quite intrigued by your post about Totem speakers. I’d love to hear your thoughts/experience comparing these speakers to 242s, for example, or any other Linn speakers. No crossover for the bass is interesting and a bit unclear to me. If not active, how can there Not be a passive crossover....

Re: Where do we go from here?

An observation in regard to “muscle” amp. When listening to music I almost always listen in the room where the gear is. I’ve noticed something familiar when I am outside the listening room. So very similar to my experience with Aktiv 212s with 4200s, the music seemed/ felt “louder” outside of the ro...

Re: Where do we go from here?

Beck,
I certainly would have No problem with a “muscle” amp as you call it.. BUT knowing Frederik and the standards he has for himself and his brand I couldn’t see him making something less musical for the sake of more power.
