    Time to let go Jeff.

    Thanks Bob I was frankly suprised I received an admonishment but he does own the site. I certainly hope it's not censorship or because SVS is a sponsor, but if I wish to remain I suppose I must accept the judgement passed down. As surprising as it was.

    Oh my goodness...I'm getting an SVS!!

    Frank: "Directional pairs (where the "cheating" might take place, perhaps? ), Blumlein "coincident" (figure of eight) or French ORF (I think that was the name) miking?" Can't give away trade secrets here but it involves ambience. "Hopefully" most people wouldn't even realize it was...

    Let me recover from the horror of that last thread before I can find humour in your posts again. Should be good to go tomorrow.

    Yeah golly a lot of women like a principled, don't put up with bullshit kind of man. But you probably know that too don't you? Again Craig, baiting is I hope, far beneath you and most unattractive and uncalled for.

    Oh my goodness...I'm getting an SVS!!

    Yeah older than I care to be on some days. I favour almost exclusive use of stereo miking, with "some" cheating at times. Multi miking absolutely not as I am a minimalist having started as an audiophile. I'm also a big fan of the RCA techniques from the 50s. Labels and orchestras I will not get...

    Craig, baiting is beneath you don't you think? It's most unattractive and doesn't inspire credibility.

    Well Dan you're overly sensitive that's more than clear and if you think I was dishing abuse you need to reread the entire thread and see if you can GRASP the gist, nay, the whole feel of what was said and by whom. Nobody was insulted and no speakers were harmed during this entire thread. I...

    Dan I would highly doubt expressing my opinion is against the rules. A forum by it's very nature invites debate. If I'm acerbic well that's me Dan and you certainly can avoid my posting style by not reading them, if alternate viewpoints upset you to the point of reporting. Not the type of...

    I will one way or another *ahem* sorry about your cold, have tried all of them before this is over as I will have tried most of the other competent companies product. Thanks for the concern Jeff, you're good people as they say in Boston. Don't say it here in the UK of course.

    I hadn't had one of those Jeff that's why. I'm not sure why I buy "lots of equipment" hadn't quite sunk in. As for feeling compelled to post to EVERY SVS thread it appears the flock's tendency to overdramatize has taken ahold again. If anyone is selling one of the box series at a good price I'll...

    Jeff there's a whole big world outside of HTF and I certainly never felt compelled to validate my opinion or seek advice from the flock. I am more than capable of making my own mind up and yep SVS can be learned about in other ways than HTF.Whoda thunk it? Wouldn't say much for their marketing...

    Craig again you make me laugh. I am glad you think you take the high road. I have a lot of folks who setup mikes and do sound reinforcement for me when I'm recording and I am always grateful for the ones who can just give a hand with no ego involved. They know their position, accept it and do it...

    Apogees, especially the later models, are terrific but they did get a lot of respect in high end circles.

    No trolling and no insults. I have made my opinion clear and for some reason you have the inexplicable need to belittle, assume and make assertions that couldn't be further from the truth because someone dare not like a sub that rather enamours you. This is silliness beyond words. As I have...

    Yes Tony for someone who doesn't know what Theil speakers are it must be wacky indeed. :D

    No somebody assumed, as seems to be the norm here, and accused me of "working for a UK site" Nothing could be further from the truth and again YOU assumed as has become your wont. As for proof of ownership that is truly ludicrous and verging on being completely laughable. Don't believe I've had...

    A kick in the arse refers to the fact they sound very much like Theil in the bass. Impressive at first unless you know what the recordings SHOULD sound like and I happen TO know.

    The Quad L series are very overlooked and quite superb.
