That’s what initially caught my eye with the 200B, growing up in Canada we had a lot of exposure to the Canadian made brands and I listened to many of their speakers.

Yep, pretty big roll off on the low end a bit extended on the high end. Reads “bright” from my point of view.

Anyone see any performance measurements on the 200B from Paradigm?

I have generally gone on the Friday and have arrived right at opening, fewer people then the weekend but it does seem that a few rooms might still be sorting things out.

Planning a stroll through on the Friday as I can not make it for the weekend. Have not made my list of must see spaces just yet. Looking forward to the show.

I guess these are sold based on the "old school" looks alone. I worry that the manufacturers keep on making and marketing what they want (sales) and are paying little attention to actual measured performance. Lately subjective reviews on line or in print are just complete "bunko". Thanks to...

KEF and Revel have good year end sale prices so instead of pulling the trigger on a used or repack sale, just sit tight. If the need to seek out and hear some gear Montreal has a pretty good audio show from what we hear, no pun intended. Toronto also has some pretty good audio dealers as well...

…what? No turntable, unbelievable. In a certain way I feel sorry for these guys and their gear…but to each, his own.

A new audio system for the condo…Revel M105’s, new Yamaha RN 800 receiver…just put it on my list.

Best to seek out a professional audio video company in your area, they may have new or used equipment available and would be beneficial in case of any service needs in the future. I would not go to eBay, big buyer beware when it comes to used professional equipment. Strongly suggest to get...

I’ll pass on this one.

If everything is in working order (and you amp has been recently serviced by a knowledgeable technician) I would simple suggest finding a good cartridge for the tonearm and getting down to some listening. As an owner of a relatively vintage set up I did eventually pack up the turntable in favor...

Don’t underestimate how low frequency travels in any structure including concrete. We enforce sound infractions in our condo building quite diligently to the dismay of many owners. Home theater seems to be the biggest offenders. I gave up using a sub years ago, but if you can get a hold of...

Mogami 3103, pretty sure you can find this in the uk, connectors if your choice.

Ugh! I have been extremely happy to be using their cables and interconnects for many years and found them to be a great value for a quality product. Not quite ready to throw them under the bus, but this and the Iconoclass thing makes me wonder. Oh well, what surprises me most about the whole...

Do you think it could be tied into a major show like Axpona, a day before or a day after?

Not sure there is much of anything to gain with a test, maybe another 20-30 pages of responses. Better to move along with more relevant testing and information than another cable “mosh pit”.

Mark Waldrep is getting started blogging and has opened up AIX Records over on youtube. Always enjoyed hearing his view on things and after a 2 year absence glad to see him surface again. He sort of was the first person I met at Axpona who was calling out the bs.

New system would feature a pair of Genelec G3 and I would pull out a Yamaha WXC 50 to handle the front end. Simplify and upgrade for the next round.

“Been there, done that”…I think a lot of us here at ASR have been through your scenario. If a return is convenient, it may be best and give you a cooling off period to sort out your needs and find an equipment solution that suits your listening space and sources. I would be leaning to an...
