Amen! You nailed it. I won't consider the A4 for that very reason. After driving a BMW M235i and Porsche Cayman, I am ruined for FWD cars. Can't do them anymore.

A 4G TL with SHAWD is about 500lbs heavier than a 3G TL so not sure how you are coming up with it being "lighter". The SHAWD is a bit faster than a TL Type S but the base 4G TL is not. What sucks is Acura had a winning car with the 3G TL. All they had to do was fix the interior noise...

Man I have been an Acura fan for years. I had an 05 TL and now have an 07 TL Type S. I've driven EVERY Acura including the newer hideous looking TL's. The newer 4G TL's are good cars but they are very bloated and the controls confusing. The SH-AWD version doesn't even come close to how a BMW...

New Video of Hugo and myself discussing amplifier measurements. Audioholics Amplifier Measurement Interview

I usually like Corvettes but their latest body style looks very cheap and plasticy to me now. They look like a supped up Camaro. I would take a Porsche Cayman S over any Corvette but of course the Porsche is more money :(

Porsche is a dream of mine but I realize how impractical it is. I'm only 40 now so if I really want to hit that stereotype, I should wait another 10 years to get one ;) I don't like Cadillac, god the shape of their cars kill me. I would consider a BMW for sure if the wife wasn't so cold on...

Honestly no bc it heard reliability isn't so great with Audi. Also every Audi I see on the road gas a front LED burned out. That being said I do like their styling. I wouldn't by new bc of price and not sure about the lease deals. I should look at them though. Good suggestion.

i own a 2007 Acura TL Type S in kinetic Blue. The car is solid and 100% reliable and quite a looker. FWD does get on my nerves at times especially when accelerating on turns or going over bumps. I recently drove a BMW M235i and fell in love but my wife hates the interior and even the exterior...

Sadly forum folks dismissed this sub b/c it didn't have a lot of measured output below 30Hz so it was never a big seller. Sometimes we all get a little too caught up in the measurements without actually trying a product real world to see how it really performs.

I'm big proponent for extended listening sessions to decide what is right for each person. I like the science but that only goes so far as people do have varying tastes in sound just like they do with food, wine and women :)

Those specs do not list at what output level they were taken. Also the Salk and Phils have a single woofer as opposed to multiple woofers on the RBH and Revels. Plus the ribbon tweeters generally never have the same output capabilities of the very best domes. I have had many Salk speakers in...

The Revels and especially the RBH's will have a lot more output capability than the Salks and likely the Philharmonics. Consider your room size, listening preferences, etc. The Revels and RBH's are probably the least attractive looking speakers of the bunch. All of the speakers on your list...

Salk's earliers subs weren't something I'd recommend but now that he paired up with Rythmik that likely has changed. I can tell you this. I replaced the dual Axiom EP400's at my parents house with the single RBH SX-10/R and their system sounds MUCH better now. Much deeper and cleaner bass, no...

A sub with reasonably flat frequency response and extension out past 100Hz with very low group delay often makes for sub that plays back music very well without sounding muddy or "slow" or worse a one-note wonder. Performance aside, the aesthetics and finish quality (esp of the SX-10/R) is what...

Yea that one is going bye bye. WE no longer put Displays in our recommended systems since, they change every 6 months and people most likely already have one and are now looking to add audio gear. Screw the Video, we are Audioholics! :)

You may hate our new new forum software even more. I am looking at moving us to Xenforo this time around ;)

Let me advise you when you get a speaker of that size and weight, it's better to do it modular. It was almost impossible to handle those beasties. I had to slide them down my stairs when I sold them almost like it was a bobsled :) 3 Be tweeters would be too cost prohibitive and probably...

Lol that's an even better system but exceeds the $5k budget and lacks a source device.

We upgraded the receiver to the meatier RS300 since it's only $279 and much more conservatively rated.

Oh yea it is a killer tower for sure and definitely my recommendation for those that don't want to cough up $50k for the 8Ts. Plus they are easier to move :)
