Indeed they are. Mine are burl Myrtle and are the only piece of kit I ever bought that Sheenagh likes the look of.

So how does the sound compare to say your Goldmunds (or other traditional box speakers)? Guillaume RE: Frank's system - f1eng - 04-Sep-2014 They have the lack of dynamic compression only horns can have. They have a slightly laid back frequency response, not forward at all but still very dynamic. They don't go as deep in the bass as the Epilogs (but not much does) I am listening to them as I type. I don't often use the Epilogs at the moment but they have something special with piano (we have a Steinway Model B in the music room) which I have only heard elsewhere with the Lyngdorf Steinway model D system, which has a small hot spot but is amazing (but expensive). http://www.steinwaylyngdorf.com/products/model-d-speaker RE: Frank's system - Jwg1749 - 04-Sep-2014 (04-Sep-2014, 14:37)f1eng Wrote: They have the lack of dynamic compassion only horns can have. "Compression"? RE: Frank's system - f1eng - 04-Sep-2014 (04-Sep-2014, 14:51)Jwg1749 Wrote:(04-Sep-2014, 14:37)f1eng Wrote: They have the lack of dynamic compassion only horns can have. God how I hate automatic typing interference! I spend -much- longer re-typing stuff that it has screwed up than any saving it may offer! Missed that one, sorry. BTW is there any way to disable the totally annoying, pointless and irritating "feature"?

As auto-correct errors go, I thought it was painted a pleasing picture: it made me think of these great horns and their roaring dynamics battering the listener with a total lack of compassion. No idea how you turn the feature off, assuming you can.

I hate it too . Try iOS: Settings > General > Keyboard > Auto-Correction <Off> OSX Lion onwards: System Preferences > Language & Text preference pane > Text tab > uncheck Correct Spelling Automatically You can also disable auto correction on an application by application basis RE: Frank's system - f1eng - 04-Sep-2014 Thanks, I had deselected it that way years ago but maybe when I got this new computer that setting was re-engaged. Or maybe the update to Mavericks (which is a downgrade for me) did it. Anyway, I've done as you say now. So future errors will be all mine. I had been looking at settings for the forum and not found it |
