AUDIO NOTE of Mr. Claudio Consigli

Perhaps, you are overlooking the possibility that he may have decided that he prefers the sound of his modified >Technics SP10 to the Walker or at least that the SP10 is close enough with the right...

I would suggest that you do not plug your preamp and digital into a single Accoustic Revive unit as there appears to be no isolation between the plugs. I believe that part of the improvement which ...

First, a clarification, at the time Paul heard the "inbalance" in the system, I was using Jorma No. 1 on all drivers and not using Prime on the woofers. The No. 1 cabling on the bass was ...

The soundstage begins in the plane of the speakers. Width is wall to wall or more limited depending on the recording with exceptional depth. In some instances (Q sonic recordings) the soundstage ca...

AUDIO NOTE of Mr. Claudio Consigli

What combination of Audio Note amp(s) are you using to drive your Acapella Triolons? Assuming that you are using a single Gaku-on, do you find that this limits your dynamics or compromises your bas...

Based on the experiences of a friend, I would probably avoid a used Wadia. I have no real experience with any of the others but really like the X01-D2 and the P03/D03. In your shoes I might conside...

Sorry to hear that your Violons are having teething problems. They can sound great and are probably the best buy of any of the Acapella speakers. They are quite reliable once you get them running p...
