Worst show EVER sound-wise. Tin cans and string would have sounded better. Every thing they had running was garbage... Ugh... Actually left early it was that bad. I am feeling your pain However the sound issue may not have been the bands fault Tuning and sound setup is normally performed by other technicians and sometimes the venue may only allow their own people to use the equipment 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave, When and where was the concert? RTM I’m listening to Cantaloupe Island from the excellent Audiogon Chesky sampler. The DIFF sound from my converted pedestrian Sennheisers is superb. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richfield Coliseum near Cleveland which is now long gone. Lemme dive on my pile of ticket stubs... Maybe there's a stub... Oooopsie, wrong! Thu Feb 20, 1992 @ the Richfield Coliseum! Does math... Takes another pill since it's time and scrolls... lol 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was the last show on the tour and everyone had the "let's go home" attitude. It sucked big-time! I'd gone to MANY shows there and none EVER sounded like this one. NASTY! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billybob Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Yeah Mike. Even a minty to good piece with low hours or, as you say serviced. Deals do arise. Marantz sounds like a nice presentation and safe enough bet. Thinking that Rotel table may be the sleeper. Turns me on... 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K5SS Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 The guy is only asking $260 for it so I might just go grab it. The problem is that I am currently ripping my HT apart at the moment and I don’t want to drop what I am doing, I’m on a roll. Hopefully it is still available tomorrow. You guys are great, thanks again for the advice! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEH Synergy Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Go to his house. It's in upland, CA. You will LOVE the area. VERY upscale aka I wish I was his neighbor. Upscale audio is no lie to the name. He has multiple dedicated audio rooms and will let you do what to u want and listen to what you want. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K5SS Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 It’s funny, I always thought La Scala’s were much larger than that! I might be able to actually fit those in the new place, when I move.. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
