| Zingali Overture series thumbs "up" or "down" Judging by the lack of reviews for 6+ years, I guess not too many are using these. I just picked up a slightly used pair over Overature 4s and am still adjusting them and learning how to place them in a system. The dealer had them in a SET system ... | |
| balanced connection, better than single ended? I did own the ARC VT-100 and thought it sounded better using the RCA inputs. The only balanced preamp I had (Sonic Frontiers) was not really that great anyway and the "single ended" preamp (ARC LS3) was really much better sounding anyway , imo, in... | |
| Dan D'Agostino is back with a new line Any dealers yet or sold "direct" etc ??? | |
| Audio Research VS110, VS115? The VS110 may sound good too, but the VT100 has more of everything. More detail, more tigher focused bass, deeper bass, more midrange bloom,more subtal nuances to notes, more quite space between the actual music notes etc, more soundstage. It take... | |
| The Hub: Here's some GOOD NEWS from the audio biz "6550: I wonder sometimes if the difficulty of actually seeing gear isn't part of what attracts some to the cult. Doesn't make much sense, but still...."I agree, it does. The "thrill of the hunt" is part of the game and is somewhat fun. It takes a... | |
| Audio Research VS110, VS115? The VS110 and VT100 are out of production, so if you want a new amp then the VS115 is the way to go. I have owned the VT100 amps and listened to the VS110. Imo, going from the VT100 series to the VS110 would be a major step down and backwards. The... | |
| Best rock/jazz speaker under $10k used Used Mirage Msi series are great. They have a sound field like planer speakers but have dynamics and bass. I use these with 100W ARC VT100 and Metalica never sounded better! | |
| Can pro amps possibly sound good? Crown, QSC, etc QSC and Crown to a degree are almost "pro-sumer" and the stuff they sell for DJ and live sound reinforcment is just that- it is PA gear and will not give exceptional detail sound that we as audiphiles expect.I have tried a home system with amps fr... | |
| whats the biggest mistake you made? Not marrying my college girl friend that went on to become a doctor - just think of the toys she could get me.! lolol | |
| Tube amp, more low end Allot of guitar amps, like Marshall, use EL34s, so their ability to rock should be of little question. | |
| Recomendations Please Try Cardas cables. Im sure they will give a better overall tonal balance and you might notice tigher more focused bass. I have a similar system and have used Audioquest and Cardas Hexlink- Cardas wins by a mile, imho. | |
| Sonus Faber Liutos I have listened to the Cremona M, and although the audition was a really poor set up (wrong electronics, bad listing room, crummy recordings, and the speakers were WAY too close to the back wall according to SF's own recomendations) I could hear w... | |
| solid state vs tubes I have NEVER bought speakers based on a solid state demo. I was unaware of this to a point, so it had nothing to do with being biased towards tubes, in fact, it is what sold be 100% on tubes and trying to get it right with SS, imho, is a waste of ... | |
| Sonus Faber Liutos I think this is a relativly new and modest priced speaker and wonder how it would stack up against the more expensive Cermona M? | |
| Best amp for Sonus Faber Amati Anniversario? Really, Classe is not a US manufacture plus they have mainly gone the home theater route. :)I'd like to hear those speakers on Audio Research gear. You could almost fit the REF 100 amp and REF 5 preamp in the budget. |
