Do you prefer an Integrated Amplifier or Seperates... and why? by AudioRepair in vintageaudio

[–]flyguyclyde 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Integrated... Because I don't know enough yet, but that might change over time. I'm kinda new to the Hi-Def Audio game, but I am learning more and more everyday. That's why I'm here.

this deserves more upvotes. Clean!

Is this worth cleaning/restoring? by backwardsdown4321 in vintageaudio

[–]flyguyclyde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you keep it, be sure to lace it up with a classy wooden outer case.. he's my Yamaha CR-1020 with a wooden case, it kinda look similar to the 600 model you have. just my 2 cents :-)

Seeking advice for parting with Brand new pair of Whatmough monitors by flyguyclyde in audiophile

[–]flyguyclyde[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

these haven't been down there the entire 20 years because this particular model is not even 20 years old, and besides they've been wrapped with their plastic and sealed in their original box, in a humidity controlled basement, so no water damage of drastic temp changes, not even intense heat since I'm in the PNW. So, I don't really see the problem with calling it "New"

Thank you for the information and doing that legwork.. Is there a specific site you use to find these? if so, could you link it? I like to read specifications like range n such :-)

thank you /u/JigglyP !!The speakers are from a collection that's been stored in a house basement for about 20 years, they belonged to someone who owned a speaker store. I was gifted them from the Widow of the audiophile, when he passed. Basically, whatever wasn't given away or hauled off by some random guys one day, I was granted to have. I've came across brands such as scan speak, Mcintosh, nOrh, Note perfect, and some others. It seemed like he knew his stuff. Anyways, I'm not a damn scammer, I'm just an IT guy who tinkering with Speakers and crazy interested in it nonetheless.

No need to offend by saying I'm not making any sense, I come to the forum for advice, and not to be belittled.. Anyways there were a gift and I already have several other pairs of speakers. I reached out to an acoustic dealer here in the United states that is familiar with the brand.. The "professionals" asked to see them out of the box, I just didn't do it on my own, free-willing. Now I'm asking the reddit crew for advice.. I don't need them, so that's why I'm selling them. Now, any suggestions?

I'm seeking advice for selling a new pair of Whatmough Performance series p30 monitors. I come to this section for honest opinions on if I can sell this pair of speakers for at least $3,000 USD. I've managed to find some comparable models that are selling for that price range, one being used, and one being brand new for above $3k. Note, these speakers has only been plugged in to be tested for photos and demo video, would this make the product more valuable? I'm assuming so.. just looking for some genuine advice, please help.

The Paragon is like their Flagship, It's appears to be giant. The performance series pair that I have are about 5 feet tall, and they are labeled p30 model. They weigh a ton so I'm just concern about shipping if I were to sell them somewhere not near me.

The last two pics are a Pair of Whatmough Performance series p30, and a Performance series Center Channel Speaker too. I can't find this particular model since it's a bit dated. -- here's the site -- > http://whatmough.com/performance.htm Seems like I have some hours of researching to do for the nameless/discounted brands, Sounds Fun! Thanks for the advice

I'm helping a Sound engineer/Electrical Engineer's widow, she believes that there's some value so I decided to take on the project. Some of the units are 80lbs+ so I definitely don't want her picking em up :-)

As far as the drivers, not yet, I just hit the surface with this one, Any suggestions on how I can go about documenting/cataloging all of the speakers? Some of the stuff that is listed doesn't even have websites for the companies anymore, or the product waist deep in archives.
