    Best 2Chann Bookshelves for music at around 500

    I haven't heard the epiphony's , but they are supposed to be a significant step above the CMB's ... Remember the CMB's are the audiophile steal of the century at only 3 - something a pair. Never heard the Aperion's ...

    Get these: http://www.tnt-audio.com/casse/epiphony_e.html Odyssey Audio - Epiphony I was researching this same thing not too long ago and I've decided on these ... The Ascends are really nice (I have the CBM-170's) but I would not describe them as laid back. They are neutral and...

    Odyssey Audio - Epiphony Mini Monitors (or opinions on other quality bookshelfs)

    The Ascend's plus sub are close enough to the Vandersteen 2ce signatures, that I would not spend $1500 on the Vandersteen's and instead spend $350 on the CBM's and use the balance for a nice integrated tube amp...

    Paradigm Studio 60 vs. Klipsch RF-35's

    It' all about the amplification ... If you have access to or eventually plan to use tubes then definitely Klipsch ... If not try getting a demo of both speakers with the hardware you plan to use ... Can't go wrong either way ...

    PB2+: Boomy-Bass with Underworld?

    To my ears overcooked bass = boomy ... No one said it was one note bass or whatever just out of balance ... Anyway it's just a movie and at the end of the day who really cares?

    PB2+: Boomy-Bass with Underworld?

    Seth you just aren't getting it ... The problem is not with the subs abilitites to reproduce bass, the problem is the bass on underworld is mixed too hot ... That is, it's encoded at a level several decibels higher that the rest of the effects in the movie, hence the "boomy" sound. If...

    Looking for a quality bookshelf speaker ...

    Looking for a quality bookshelf that will give me a similar (of better) sound than the Vandersteen 2ce Signatures (mids & highs). I'm in Trinidad, so my choices are limited and if I import I'm faced with almost 40% duty on the cost of the item plus shipping ... That said I have available to...
