    Rockport Technologies Introduces Orion Loudspeaker

    Given that the Lyra has beryllium tweeters, perhaps you're not as sensitive to metallic drivers (and the fatigue you believe they create) as you thought.

    Lamm L2 Reference vs LL2.1

    The input impedance of the V4 is 100k ohms. 1.5v is required for full output. When John Atkinson measured the LL2 for Stereophile he said, "...the LL2 can swing more than 60V into 100k ohms before clipping!" So you have nothing to worry about.

    Visit to Bending Wave USA--Gobel and CH Precision---state of the art

    Maybe that's what you hope, but as one of the "other readers," seems to me that you're the blowhard with an agenda. What about the following statement did you not understand?... "I have not been impressed at all with the bending wave Goebels but the Divin was quite good." It's plain as day...

    All the noise and none of the music

    Doesn't your home system already do that?

    WHY are high-efficiency speakers are better at conveying emotion of music vs. audiophile vocabulary?

    I suspect that the only person this actually makes sense to is you.

    The SRA Craz Mk3 racks have a titanium "iso-Skeleton." The Scuttle rack shown in the picture has a constrained-layer-damped structure. The shelving material, unique to SRA, is just as important to the efficacy of the product.

    Preamps... nothing is perfect.

    When you made the switch, did you remember to switch the speaker leads?

    Mission: Impossible - Fallout

    Disagree. Christopher McQuarrie’s direction was so good, Cruise—and everybody else—delivered an exceptional performance. Fabulous film!

    Gryphon at T.H.E. Show Newport June 1 - 3

    Admittedly I had to look the word up, but here goes: “Mange: a skin disease of mammals caused by parasitic mites and occasionally communicable to humans.” I like great sound as much as the next guy, but if I have to risk mange in order to experience it, I’m going to sit this one out.
