Pizza Tapes

Thanks but I’m not in the market. Just thought these were pretty insane looking. On one hand I think, how could these possibly get measured accurately? On the other hand I think, you don’t measure them, you LISTEN to them!

These look just insane

Found the big overall effect on the bass performance- it’s the taps on the Jolida amp… Never noticed the changes on other speakers, but with these, the 4ohm taps make it sound more like comparable solid state amps I have here, bass boost is gone. But the rest of it sounds not great. So I’m...

This is my setup now. Cleanest it been for a number of years…

Wow this takes me back. In the mid 90’s I was flipping through gear having the upgrade-itis. (Guess I never completely shook that..). Anyway I went from Boston Acoustics VR30’s (employee purchase), to Dahlquist DQ-10’s, then to Magnepan (MG IIIa I Think). Had plenty of power with a Nakamichi...

Hard a minor scare last night. Was listening to Chick Corea and I heard some some clipping on some piano peaks, left channel. Made me think it was a bad tweeter on these speakers I JUST bought. Maybe something from the electronics. Turned out to be in the recording. Headphones sure are handy.

Nice!

Yeah I noticed his prices bumped up about 20-30% too. Sniffer liked those but gave fair warning about spending all that bread on something not auditioned… and it’s a good point. If go for the crites upgrades on these 5.5’s , the outcome could steer me closer- or away- depending on that outcome.

How’s the noise floor on all that? I don’t remember the WOPL being noisy- but I don’t recall it being dead-silent either

I honestly really liked the new Cornwalls A LOT. But man $6500 is a big ask for a monkey coffin, where most expensive part looks like the veneer on 3 sides. Dealers will not budge. Probably breaks their agreement. Pricing on everything has gotten really crazy all around lately.

ho lee shit

Very impressive. You have a dedicated circuit for all that?!? I can’t imagine a regular 20amp would be enough

Im sorry to hear that. Loss is like a part of you dying. Nothing can feel the same. I can’t imagine loosing a child. Are lives were intertwined since we were teen agers 38 years ago. We were not together the whole time but we finally tied the knot and made it through 26 years of marriage.

I heard somewhere you need about 300 watts to make those sing and it takes 301 to blow them lol

Then it returned. She really would have liked these 5.5’s. She definitely liked a lot of bass lol. I remember when I had the walls shaking for the first time with that loner WOPL on some 901’s, she usually didn’t give a shit about my audio interests - but she heard all that she thought it was...

As is, these just have a single set terminals but I have no doubt I could modify. I think for now I’m just going to enjoy as-is. I’ve definitely entertained going with the crites upgrades so you never know.
