Speaker suggestions for Plinius, Muse...

eldragon i just though i would tell you i posted a message about speakers yesterday and got so many good responces. i took someones advise and called audio connection there website is www. audioconnect.com or email them at audiocon@webspan.net this guy john rutan has so much knowledge of audio its not funny he will help you with what ever you want and his prices are very fair. i just bought a pair of b&w 802's. he is very smart doesn't have a big head when it comes to high end audio. this store is in new jersey. there phone number is 973 239-1799 and they are open until 6 pm eastern standard time they can help they ship any where. happy speaker hunting.

The ProAc Response 1.5 for $3K. Also, the ProAc has a single 6.5" woofer, compared to his current dual woofer setup. As for the bass, it is clean and musical sounding.

Hi. A good match would be a pair of Thiel 2.3. The plinius has a great neureal signature that will compliment the highs of the thiels. The MIT's also are a good match for the Thiels - see soundstage review of the Thiels and MIT cables. Absolute sound loves these speakers which retail at $3,600.

"Muse model II pre-amp"? No such thing, no such model. These is a "Model Two" DAC. There was a Model One pre amp and there is current model Three pre amp and the new MAP (which can act as a pre amp among other things). Never heard of a "Plinius MK-3 amp". Plinius has been around for about 20 years, so maybe it's a very old model I don't know about (it's also not in the Orion Blue Book)? Current models are the: SA-50mkIII, SA-100mkIII, and the SA-250mkIV. Anyway, we carry Muse and Plinius and could offer some advice, but aren't really sure of what you're friend is using. For speakers we recommend Dunlavy. We also sell most Dunlavy speakers with Muse and Plinius. I can tell we can take the Cantons towards any Dunlavy model. Your friend should consider the SC-III's. www.hellohifi.com
