| Low freq. from small drivers? Is it possible Here is the Royd homepage if you are interested: http://www.roydaudio.com/main.htm | |
| Low freq. from small drivers? Is it possible The only small speakers I have heard that had ridiculous bass, relatively speaking of course, were Royds. They are tiny floorstanders that have a weird porting design that makes them sound really full range while only having 6 inch drivers (or som... | |
| Anybody ever hear Alon Exoticas? I auditioned them in Geneva Switzerland, paired up with ASL AQ1009dt amps. I was surprised how good the sound was. The owner of the shop said he had tried "everything" and liked those amps the best. They aren't called ASL there though... I think A... | |
| Amp suggestions for audiophile virgin The Classe 101 is a good one but I would try tubes too...the Antique Sound Labs AQ1003 sounded excellent both times I heard it. The Cayin TA30 is getting a lot of press at the moment. Actually, it all depends on what type of sound you like. You wi... | |
| Best Speaker For McIntosh MC225 Tube Amp You will need some sensitive speakers. I agree with the Coincident Tech idea. The Omegas are cool too - I had a pair for a while. Their build is excellent and their sound is good, but only with tubes. Otherwise, Living Voice apparently makes nice ... | |
| MC352 into varying-load speaker? Thanks Ron for the explanations! Cool hearing about the details involved. Arthur | |
| Early 90s digital: whatz up? What this "In ribbons?" I agree 4AD is a killer label. | |
| mac and vac amps with thiel 3.6 Well, the 70/70 is way more expensive and way more powerful than the MC225 so I would hope you would like it better! Garnetts - did you have the MA2275 in mind? I haven't heard it yet but am curious. | |

| MC352 into varying-load speaker? Yes, all autoformer McIntoshes use bifilar winding (trifilar on some amps). McIntosh patented it in 1947 for their "unity-coupled" circuit, originally for tube amps of course but then they applied it to solid state in the early 60s and have ever s... | |
| MC352 into varying-load speaker? The autoformer doesn't work like Sean thinks it does.. Mcintosh output transformers are bifilar wound which is a complex technique used to nearly eliminate the inductance associated with the wire. We use it in the lab for special EMI filters (diff... | |
| McIntosh MC206 and MX134 One of the few HT demo experiences I really liked was with the MX132 and MC7205 playing some ML electrostats. It was very impressive. It wasn't as good as the ML no.40 setup but it was 25% of the cost too. The Mc are really nice and if you want se... | |
| MC352 into varying-load speaker? Better off with the autoformer than not. The 352 will be much more powerful than the 6500. Arthur | |
| Which Preamp would match my system? I would go for the Passion preamp. That way you are sure you are getting everything from your very fine amplifier - and they match as a bonus. Arthur | |
