Maybe you could find the time to visit Living Voice studio and listen to yacht horn speakers with Pinokio nose and report your impressions ? Personally I'd skip all that and go to orchestra halls and listen to some life music. Peter Walker once sa...

Romy,Thank you. Now that you mention it, perhaps 85% of the stateroom in question was indeed beneath the waterline, meaning that the potential for unruly resonances was perhaps less than I had at first assumed. The front and rear walls of the room we...

Not this year they won't be, that show is in September.Romy, Kevin at Living Voice has been using 'your' S2 since 1992. I understand these speakers have the first of the new Mike Harvey S2's fitted.I'm not sure what the thinking is behind the con...

[quote user="marknoir"]Agreed. I only wish I could hear the new Platinum for myself... :-) Meanwhile I'll be looking for a used Shelter 901.[/quote]Do yourself a favor and look for components which aren't that colored.When you don't want, because yo...

[quote user="Merlin"]I find it pointless discussing the "sound" of a drive unit as it will be totally dependent on the implementation within the system. [/quote]
I disagree. It is pointless discussing the sound of badly implemented drivers but if a ...

I was listening today the Bolshoy 1948 production on LYS twice. What the beauty. As the tribute to this performance I am posting articles about the singers who did the “Boris Godunov” with Golovanov in 1948. The Articles are courtesy to writing staff...

Can't edit again so you get another post.
I'd like to thank Kevin Scott at Living Voice for pointing me in the right direction with this drive unit. He uses it even farther up than me I believe.

Yes, I have seen that Living Voice uses it. Frankly I was not impressed HOW it was used. I did not mention it at the British site, to bogus contingent of “critics” was there, but I think if that driver is good then there ...

[quote user="Merlin"]Sorry Romy. Which loudspeaker are we talking about? Do you have a picture at all? [/quote] I was under impression that you were taking about Living Voice – the Kevin Scott's prototype of his new model.

when I play over 10 hours per day my audio system in good electricity days (like 13 days of Iranian new year in spring) the sound get better and better every day (fully warm up) but in normal days the best way is shutting down the system when AC qual...

It looks like me will be coming to London end of August begin of September. We have B4, B7, and B8 at Proms and whole range of other stimulations coming. I wonder what if any interesting audio experiences I might expect from London? For instance I wo...

There is a guy here in the UK who is a retailer but who also manufactures loudspeakers called Living Voice. He has several customers in far flung parts of the world where the mains supply is even worse than Boston. With the help of a supplier of...

[quote user="Merlin"]Well firstly on those, the tweeter is not offset to one side - it appears to be time aligned directly behind the midrange horn and upper bass unit. Secondly, that's a JBL 2405.[/quote]I do not know which driver the Living Voce us...

I don't have a scope, so can't measure the output of my particular unit. However, if I were to guess, I would say that my unit probably falls alongside your #2 unit. When run from AC, the bass disappears and the sound becomes bright and edgy, to the ...

I think discussing about "multiple systems (or multiple partner) vs one system (or one wife)" is quite different to what i said about two separate audio systems.I mean Two audio systems is not about two different sonic objectives. two different syste...

I think DP-777 sounds best when i turn off it's Jitter correction and i use bit Perfect I mode in 16bit 44.1khz mode.I think AMR DP-777 is very very good DAC but in my idea it is a-little bold sounding if i criticize tone.It sounds clear , very clear...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] If you've tried both, and decided to keep the 16R versions, you've answered a question I've had for quite a while; I too use the 16R version, but have always wanted to try a pair of 8Ms with 8 Ohm coils (should have o...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I do not like the idea of batteries for anything. It is kind of ridicules to use batteries. Yes, in some cases there is some improvement on low voltage electronics but it is ONLY because the power lines are badly sounding t...

[quote user="Paul S"]Amir, I think there are still "acceptable" "commercial" components (including speakers) still "out there", depending on how they are used; it's just a matter of finding and getting ahold of them. In any case, building up an integ...
