Top Shelf Audio was created out of a passion for all things audio
What started as a mission to bring the excitement of home theater to the immediate western Kentucky area has taken a life of it's own, with a much broader reach.
This growth doesn't negate the personal touch though. The industry is full of salespeople who aren't passionate to put it nicely, who have misled ideas about audio science, who are more concerned about their commission than about helping you, who can't answer the hard questions, and who have limited first hand experience with the nicer items. We strive to be different.
As a way to take this service to the next level, we have created this TH-cam channel devoted to helping customers better understand these products. We want to assist and inform in any way possible so please, ask questions, tell us about your systems, and let us know what you think of the videos/channel as a whole!

Hi , i just bought a Advance Paris A 12 Classic , is it possible to connect a equalizer to it ? If so , how ? Thank you for your time
Everything on my powered sub is OK,but when connected to my AVR the output is only drrrrrr sound. All other speakers are giving out sound but the sub is just drrrrr. Can you help me with this?
Gentlemen I have a question I have the Anoka 7100 audio video receiver and was thinking about getting the Jen 2504 sea front center Channel will I be able to push the volume on this will my receiver be strong enough I currently have the Klipsch 30C Center Channel thank you in advance
Love the way you pulled out those speakers. Thank you.
Where can I find the Matt Summers Hot Potato? Looked everywhere I could think of but to no avail.
now it's harder to justify the 14k price tag isn't it?
504c sounds like you have a speaker inside a closed box while the rc64III sound very crisp clean, and free
Hi Guys. Question? These La Scala speakers/cabinets are known for having a serious shortage of low frequencies, even though they have a 15" woofer in a folded horn cabinet. Wouldn't opening up the "outlet hole" in the cabinet for the 15" woofer increase the lower end bass response? Why is this a rectangular hole and why isn't it round? With that rectangular hole, they could have used a 6x9" speaker. The rest of the 15" is wasted there in that design. A 15" driver/woofer should provide plenty of bass. Why am I the only person to ask these questions? I don't understand that particular engineering, intentionally blocking over one half of the large round speaker. Otherwise, I love that speaker.
What a out the Nines? Im planning to buy ones
Do you recommend The Nines? How do they compare versus rp 8000 ii with a 500 dlls receiver?
11/2024: Good Day Guys. ? These La Scala speakers/cabinets are known for having a serious shortage of low frequencies, even though they have a 15" woofer in a folded horn cabinet. Wouldn't opening up the "outlet hole" in the cabinet for the 15" woofer increase the lower end bass response? Why is this a rectangular hole and why isn't it round?
Very helpful! Did not know how to adjust the loudness. My understanding is their is 3 settings. Still not sure how to do a upgrade to software if I had to.
Svs speakers review them
Those rf 7 speakers are way too big
Wish other reviews / demos were as clear as this! Excellent work.
thanks man
Use NoCopyrightsSounds (NCS) music. Problem Solved!
Has anyone compared the K-Horns to Duntech Sovereigns?
I seriously doubt it. Comparing corner horns to direct radiating towers isn't a good use of time.
Each speakers character is usually needed to be matched with individual appropriate amp and preamp in my opinion.
which one better between 3010i vs 3020i for audiophile?
at least the 3020i. The 3010i is what I would use for a PC desktop speaker. Just kind of small. Nothing wrong with them but most guys are going to want to go bigger for more serious listening, for better bass if nothing else.
@ thankyou
dude you need to get an ifixit kit, or just buy a set of plastic spudgers you would probably need 2 or 3 to get the necessary pressure because they are plastic if you riff on them too much they will break, but that's kinda the point that you wont damage what your working on that's metal you will damage a 50 cent spudger. As long as you can get the first one in and in a spudger set the should be one for getting in in the first place which is the thinnest one which will allow you to get in the thicker ones either side pull out the thin one then work the thick ones outward and that will put it right out, also has the benefit of distributing the pressure in 2 points rather than 1 so even if your working with plastic pressure fit parts it really shouldn't damage it, they are also made of pretty flexible plastic which gives you some feed back that your going to hard and it's going to be harder to damage anything because it's a flexible plastic.
I have a Jamo J12 subwoofer and the sound cut off for couple seconds and then come back. Can someone please help me.
What integrated amp would pair well with this?
we are having really good luck with the Advance Paris A10, several in stock. topshelfaudio.com/products/advance-paris-a10-classic
Any ideea why my sub cuts out after 3-4 min. When on a blutooth dongle the whole house shaking but when through the amp doesn t seem to be as strong and after a few min it cuts off?!? Has a auto and off button so does it only turn on when loud volume or faulty?
probably needs a new amp, I've seen it happen.
What is the filter capacitance on this amp?
The two big heatsinks are for the heat dissipation of each channel's, output transistors. They're mounted on each of them while also using thermal paste. You can briefly see a pair of them at 14:06 and 4 of them at 15:15.
I have B52 Matrix 1000V2, and one time subwoofer is not functioning at all but the two speaker are functioning well. I ddnt abuse it once, all volume are mid levels and I check always that It will not get hot (btw the fan still functioning well) and I even use a electric fan just in case. I use it the same way when it needed in the event, carefully. What is the problem about it ?
I know this video is 2 years old now, but got a question.... I own a pair of heresy iv speakers with a svs sb-3000 sub for two channel listening.... How much better would be the RF7 III be over the heresy iv's?? Are the highs and mids in the rf7iii as clean and clear like the heresy iv's?? Thanks!
overall output and slam and sound stage is better but midrange is going to be different because you've got two 10" woofers doing what a compression driver ought to be doing. Hit us up for some Cornwalls or Forte, you'll be upgrading everything instead of doing a lateral move.
This is the best description of the A10 I have seen so far. Best regards from Germany👍🏼✌🏼
thanks man. :)
Thanks for the video with the look inside. This does look cool with the black and blue lights. I was concerned about replacing the tubes or if you could roll tubes and the look confirms my fears. I want long term use without problems or repairs so I’ll pass. Rock on guys.
thanks!
I received my Advance Paris A10 last week. My current setup is Magnepan LRS+, REL Tzero MkIII sub, The music source is a Cambridge Audio Azure 851N which I play FLAC files from an SSD, Rotel CD-11 Tribute CD player. I also have a pair of Emotiva Airmotiv T2+ on channel B. The LRS+ are less efficient and are at least about -10 db compared to the Emotiva's. With that being said, Prior to the Advance Paris A10 I was running an Outlaw Audio RR2160 MkII. I purchased the A10 because the Outlaw seemed to be under powered with LRS+ which are a bit inefficient. The Outlaw and the A10 are about the same wattage wise but I have to say that I was disappointed with the A10's ability to push those LRS+. However, I think the A10 is a better sounding amp. The mids and highs are somewhat pronounced which I like; it's a very addictive sound. However, the bass seems to lack presence and muscle with the LRS+. Running the Emotiva's the A10 pushes them very nicely; also I'm not using the REL subwoofer with the Emotivas. I definitely have to use a subwoofer with the LRS+ and A10. I'm not a "bass head"; in other words I really don't care for room shaking bass. Particularly with the kind of music I predominantly listen to, mostly jazz piano trios, straight jazz with acoustic instruments, upright bass, etc. Additionally with the A10, mellow jazz guitar on some tracks sound a little recessed and distorted more than I've heard on other amplifiers. In both cases whether using the A10 or the Outlaw it seems that I have to turn the volume up quite a bit to get around 80db of sound. I have a 35 year old Carver receiver with a little less wattage than the A10 and the Outlaw that I barely have to turn the volume up that much to get the same volume out, it doesn't sound quite as nice but volume wise it beat the other two. Also the sound-stage with the A10 seems decreased and not as wide compared to the Outlaw RR2160 MkII. The other option I considered was the Rotel 1572 or 1592 MkII which is about the same price. I returned it this morning. It's really difficult trying to make a decision when we don't have retail stores to check the sound out before purchases.
I love my Advanced Paris A12 integrated amp. Great sounding amp and very pretty to look at. Got it straight from Cory, thanks again man!
thanks for your support. :)
nice video , how does the A10 sound with the klipsch La Scalas
I haven't tried that particular combination yet. It works great with K horns though.
@ well there you go , try-it with some Frankie live at the Sands !! all classics
Hey, thanks for this comparison. Question: are you guys running any sort of room correction in this comparison?
we usually don't, room correction varies quite a bit and it could potentially skew the results plus A/B'ing them would be incredibly painstaking, you'd at least theoretically have to rerun room correction every time you switched. Demo'ing a speaker on a another speaker's settings wouldn't be good.

My only gripe is it isn’t Roon Ready😢
Same. But would probably add more to the cost for the feature add / licensing.

Thank you for this. I want to ask something, if we get two sub, can we get stereo bass sounds from left and right subs? Or both of them gives us mono bass sounds ? Thanks.
( I Have rp51pm now with eversolo network player.)
depends on how your processor handles it.
Are these products including a home theater bypass input?
Amazing comparison guys! Both the heresys' and the fortes' sound awesome! After i watched this comparison i bought myself a pair of heresys' for my listening room. With the huge price difference between the heresys' and the fortes's, i considered doing a comparison with my buddy who currently owns two cornwalls'. We then brang the heresys' over to his house to compare them with the cornwalls'. Surprisingly the heresys' did ok up against the cornwalls'. The cornwalls' overdone the heresys' with everything obviously, but considering the price difference the heresys' definitely are a gamble for the money!
Cool, you got them from us right?
What a great video. I really appreciate it.
Dude on the left has my attention with his opinions. Good commentary. edit: coming from my own experience I just don't resonate with peppy le pew's thoughts on the comparisons.
My bank account doesn't like these results 😆But expected for 3x the price. Great vid as always!
