What stand mount monitors works w/ Pass XA 30.5? That is good advise! I had a pair of the 1007be speakers three back and liked but I sold them to buy Diablo Utopias which, call me crazy but I did not like them as well, says a lot for the 1007bes. I have read that Monitor Audio has new line of Mo... | |
Audio Research DS 450 amp......thoughts I'm using a Ds225 on Magnepan 1.7s and soon on 3.7s. I find that the amp is very transparent and really reacts to any upgrade connected to it. I've grown to like the amp after selling my ARC SD135. Its taken some time to understand this amp, It ha... | |
Designer Hall of Fame David Reich's Class'e audio designs were wonderful. I had a DR-2 or DR-7 which were class A bias. Anyone know of he has designed any new? | |
Good tube preamp for McCormack DNA 500??? The Parasound JC2 should be at the top of your list, they go for around $2200 used. The JC2 is a still a bargain even at its full retail of 4k. | |
Should I buy the B&W 804d's or 805d's I've just purchased a new pr of 804 diamonds. I was considering the 805d and I even had a pair of Sound Anchor 805 stands. After considering that I would require a sub and that the 804d has far better midrange driver I went with the 804d. They are... | |
Spendor Stand question on the new SA1 Ive tried Blue Tack and many other products under speakers, most sound bad. The best that I've found are the blue dots from from Sound Anchors. Doing the mm to inches conversion I come up with a height of 23.6 inches for the factory stands, this s... | |
Spendor Stand question on the new SA1 I've read that the Spendor SA1 stands are light weight and undamped. The Targets and Sound Anchors are really heavy and damped. So which is best with these light weight BBC type speaker designs? I have not heard of the Skylans, I will check them o... | |
Heard the Bryston SST 2 Squared ? Asclepius, Thank you for all the details on the 28B monos. I've read that they are stunners. If you like the ARC preamps and want a preamp that gets near the Ref sound for smaller $$ try the Parasound JC-2. I have one it would be a great companion... | |
Benchmark DAC-1, Lavry DA10, Altmann Attraction I compared a current Benchmark DAC1 to my DAC 3 and the BelCanto was a very clear upgrade in refinement over the Benchmark , but it should be an improvement as it commands a higher price. The new Bryston BDA-1 maybe great as well but I have not he... | |
Bryston BDA-1 vs. BelCanto DAC3 any comparisons? I compared a current Benchmark DAC1 to my DAC 3 and the BelCanto was a clear upgrade in refinement, but it should be an improvement as it commands a higher price. Who knows maybe Bryston will be the new value champ? | |
Parasound JC-2 character? Thanks for sharing your time with the JC 2. Nice to hear it improved your system. Your experience is simular to other listeners who were thrilled the JC2's explosive dynamics, great bottom end and sound staging, everyone seems to agree on these st... | |
McIntosh MA6600 voiced simular to MC402? I've owned the 402 and really loved the amp. But my wife and I together can barely handle the weight of 402 and I don't want the hassles of preamps and extra cables. I was hoping to hear that the new MA 6600 was an improved product over the 6900, ... | |
Ayre K1xe vs. Simaudio P7, P8 I've owned the Ayre K1X but not the e version. I found in a direct comparison even the older P-5 was hands down more natural, focused and musical than the Ayre. | |
Simaudio new P5.3 vs. old P5 preamp , Improvement? Thanks for sharing your recent experience with your new P5.3, this is exactly the information I was trying to find out. The P5 was ever so slightly on the warm side (a nice quality) and above all else very musical. I hope the new P5.3 has retained... |
