i mean i'm sure it will sound fine. but i have speakers set up between two rooms, one small room and one larger room. when i point the speakers into the larger room they sound way better. they open up.

vroom vroom is making my ears hurt just looking at it.

why do none of them have fancy walls? if you're going to spend that much you may as well cover the surfaces with some kind of optimally resonant material.

so after months of looking I finally settled on Tannoy M20s, made my order from ebay, got them today, quite poorly packaged and wet from rain soaking through the box. After letting them dry off I've found that the sound from one of the speakers is quite fuzzy and indistinct - any ideas what the problem is likely to be?

that happened to my earbuds after I got them wet.

i got very technical with the speaker by putting my ear next to it and it seems that there's no sound coming from the tweeter. is that a conceivable diy repair job, or a relatively cheap outsourced repair job, or am i boned?

Pretty depressing to see this thread re-emerge the day after I discover a suspicious buzz coming out of my Rega RS5's when playing anything with sub bass.

Not having much luck recently; moved into a new house late last year where I have, for the first time, a dedicated living room. Since then my turntable has been in to have it's needle changed and my amp went just before Xmas and needed to be sent back to Rega.

four years pass...

Thought this is worth a mention, the Andrew Jones designed Pioneer SP-FS52 speakers are available for a significant discount at $200 a pair until 1/4 at BuyDig. Jones moved on to German company ELAC, and there are deals on the Debut F5. I give a little history on Jones and some other cheapish gear recommendations.
