Looking for an amplifer
Believe it or not had that set up on my Dunlavy's and while it did sound great just wasn't overall as musical as the MAC. And didn't have the head room the MAC has. I was thinking mabe a set of Theata mono blocks??

I agree upgrading speakers can be tricky. I only thought about it as a local audiophile who introduced me to truly hi end had a set of Avalon HC that he would sell me for 2300 He himself said that he couldn't say in his opinion if they would be be...

I'm currently powering the Dunlavys with a McIntosh MC2500 that's been completely rebuilt by audioclassics. I know some hate and others love MAC gear. I grew in a house with MAC and while I agree others may sound better but MAC has been the only e...

That's my biggest fear is ending up with a speaker so detailed the listener bores quickly. The Dunlavys can play for hours and be non fatiguing

Thanks for all the replies. I can get the Avalon's local for 2300 and the BW for 3200 plus shipping.

Tomcy6, that's crazy I just spoke with Theta this afternoon. They said the exact same thing! The only recommendation they gave was to go with a set of mono block amps which would give more current. Of course they recommend Enterprise and Citidel m...

tomcy6 you believe that 200watts is enough juice for the Dunlavy's?

I was kinda thinking the same. I have a line on a older Mac 2500 which has been rebuilt by Mcintosh and comes with a one year warranty. I know many don't care for Mac amps but it's in my price range and has a warranty. Grew up in a house with Mac ...
