January 29, 200818 yr comment_91561 hey, when did you get those ADAMs, David? liking them? i got them about a month ago and i love them. i wanted some nearfield speakers so that I could put them close to the wall and not have to worry about it (room is small). i tried a bunch of nearfield speakers out before settling on these, especially considering their price, and they're quite good for the money ($1k-ish). unfortunately i haven't been using them too much lately with all the shit that's going on in my life, but i'm hoping that i don't have to sell them off, because money has become quite a problem lately.

January 29, 200818 yr comment_91568 sell yourself on the street before you sell beloved speakers. don't speakers rock? Report
January 29, 200818 yr comment_91571 don't speakers rock? they do indeed. the imaging that you get from speakers is just untouchable by headphones and the way the sound fills the room is something else. if only i could afford something as nice as your thiels (glad that you got them back into shape!)

January 29, 200818 yr comment_91579 my big moment of revelation, for this month, was St. Vincent. i listened to it dozens of times on HD-650s, but i hadn't actually heard it until i got my system back together. i hear you, when i first got the speakers, i warmed them up with some NIN and I was only doing some half-assed listening, but there were moments when I was like, "wait...what the fuck was that? i've never heard that before." i can't imagine how much better things can get as you move up the speaker line.

January 29, 200818 yr comment_91583 why bother, when we already have a thread for this? might as well chew the fat and shoot the shit. heh thats true i hear you, when i first got the speakers, i warmed them up with some NIN and I was only doing some half-assed listening, but there were moments when I was like, "wait...what the fuck was that? i've never heard that before." i can't imagine how much better things can get as you move up the speaker line. ya know, when i was listening to my dads speakers a lot during the break when I realized that headphones have one advantage over speakers. INTIMACY!!! Its quite nice to have the singer's voice right next to you instead of being kinda far away. but yea, everything else, especially in symphonies, speakers kick major ass Report

Its quite nice to have the singer's voice right next to you instead of being kinda far away. but yea, everything else, especially in symphonies, speakers kick major ass that's true, but being that my speakers are designed for nearfield listening, you still get a lot of that same intimacy from them, maybe not as much as from my hd580s, but there's enough of it there that i'd rather use my ADAMs than my headphones, as much as i love the lunchbox.

I need to try some nearfield speakers. Full size speakers have that nice power to them, but it feels like sitting in the back balcony sometimes Report

January 29, 200818 yr comment_91596 I need to try some nearfield speakers. Full size speakers have that nice power to them, but it feels like sitting in the back balcony sometimes do it man, i'd check out the ADAMs, they're really quite the deal for 1k Report
January 29, 200818 yr comment_91598 hmm, then what is it? I'm pretty bad putting my thoughts into words when that happens it's because that's how the music is recorded. don't like it? buy a new CD. ugh, again, i suck at putting my thoughts into words. Lemme try to put my thoughts so it makes sense Report

January 29, 200818 yr comment_91606 you need to update your audiogon profile reks! i'd love to see what those north stars look like. Report
January 29, 200818 yr comment_91610 i will once i find the battery charger to my camera, and clean my room up, and dust. it'll happen some day. awesome, can't wait Report
January 29, 200818 yr comment_91612 if i'm being harsh, it's only because i once believed the same things you're saying, jinp. i'm just trying to show you the error of your ways, so you don't have to waste any more money on ear doodad thingies hmm it might just be that I dont like the B&Ws I kinda think they sound like super senns. Big sound and laid back I like the Wilson speakers better Report
January 29, 200818 yr comment_91622 yea, the listening area isint the best right now. We're trying to clear a room for listening but we have too much crap in the house I heard the same setup at a store, which had a listening room just for that setup and it sounded much better then how it sounds now.
