I also seem to remember a larger blue pair, or is it just old age?

it's a shame you couldn't have heard the prototype 810 amps that TW bought along,we could only listen to them after the show proper finished, they were spectacular, and I am not usually a great valve fan.That's the only pair ever to appear at Scalford.
Here's the Liszt at Munich with the Sony. Some very nice Tron and TW gear too. Nice. But flawed, like everything, LOL. And a lot of money. A serious amount.
Seriously love the Tron and TW gear lookswise. And the orange horn on the Liszt is very pretty too.

Lee, Keith and I banter - that was a quip, not an insult. You will find another post where he asks me to read up on how sound works
Jeez, you guys, LOL. It's Xmas already (maybe not, a week to go)
Let peace and love break out on WBF
Guys at any time 90% of our readership is guests, not membership. Those guests will hopefully choose to join the forum at some point. One of the things that will do that is seeing a place that is not rough and people going after each other in their mind, not yours. They don't have the history that some of you have to know what is banter, and what is mean spirited treatment of other members. There are tons of way to be sarcastic and tease without it appearing to third-parties that it is more than that. If you need a lesson on that, I am happy to show you how!

And please note that our moderators are unpaid volunteers. The last thing they need to hear is criticism of enforcing the forum rules. The management takes a very dim view of folks going after them in any manner.
I am saying this as a member and not a moderator. It is not wise to publically challenge ANY moderator decisions. The moderators usually make them as a team and we offer very generous latitude when it comes to posting. If one does not want something deleted, then do not post anything that is against the TOS of this forum. It's actually pretty simple.

Modded by Henk from Netherlands, heard it as his client in frankfurt. Room 4m wide, around 4m space between panel and front wall, 6m. between speaker center and listening seat, and further space behind listener.
Streamed via Mac into Lyngdorf dac, lyngdorf being used for an active crossover to the bass, while top and mid had a passive crossover. Project Sphinx hybrid amps.
Nakamich TT with Vincent phono and Benz cart.
Nothing fancy in the set up except the speakers. The sound was magical. This was a midrange to die for, creamy and thick and full and real. The Schubert winterreise sounded the best I have heard after the WE. He wasn't into classical but still took down the pic of the LP to order it. Mahler 2 is the best I have heard with the Trios. While I was listening, the loud parts of the symphony came towards me like waves, they just kept coming towards me down the room. After we finished, the other guy too described what he heard as 'waves'. Amazing we were both visualizing the same thing. The soft parts of Mahler were equally delightful, with the flute and clarinet floating up creamily to the center.
The sound wasn't perfect, sometimes the bass was too thick, and there should have been more width for better imaging. Some songs it sounded unbalanced due to excess bass. The owner was an apogeephile, not an audiophile, so didn't care for warming up the system, positioning it perfectly, expensive electronics, etc. Yet I enjoyed this system much more than normal hifi systems I have been auditioning recently. Would I buy this over the MBLs, Wilsons, Focals and Vivids I have heard recently, with expensive electronics
It helped clear my mind. I just love the ribbon tone. Analysis Audio, this Apogee full range, I need to listen to a well set up Dali Megaline with subs.
And these restores are not expensive. I think Henk restores will cost from 10 - 15k GBP. The full range was the first of the apogee speakers made. The new definitives and the Advance 7 (USD $60k) that is coming out now is expected to be much better.
Did I miss the wild profanities ,did you use the 'S' word shunmook!The problem now that parts are deleted is that people don't know what was discussed and deleted, and can assume the worst that there was a wild exchange of profanities around.
