| Sell your $$$ cables and conditioners... affordable LITHIUM is here! nice, looking forward to hearing your thoughts. What are you hooking it up to? | |
| Sell your $$$ cables and conditioners... affordable LITHIUM is here! I'm also interested in the River portable power supply. Also lithium. It can handle up to 500 watts. I'm not an electrical engineer and really don't understand much about electricity. I emailed their customer service to see if they think it will w... | |
| Sell your $$$ cables and conditioners... affordable LITHIUM is here! Yup, I saw that too, for a factory refurb. Might be worth trying. | |
| Sell your $$$ cables and conditioners... affordable LITHIUM is here! I'm interested in this, but want to make sure I understand. I have a Primaluna Dialogue integrated. The power consumption on their site is rated at 255 watts. My dac is rated at 25 watts. I also have a bluesound node 2. Let's say its not higher th... | |
| Best bookshelf speakers @stuff_jonesYou heard what I did with the Hawks. The tweeter is a touch bright. However, what I did like is that at low and moderate volume you still get a lot of detail. Tubes helped a bit, but I'd still have to turn the volume down a bit on cert... | |
| Best bookshelf speakers I had Hawks for a few years and loved them. If you're going to have bookshelf speakers on stands then Hawks are a great alternative. They are small, but have a huge soundstage and image fantastically. They also play down into the mid 30's and have... | |
| Used Market Savings vs. The Dealer Experience I almost exclusively purchased used, open box or close out. Some dealers have good used sections or offer great deals on closeouts/demos, which I'm fine purchasing because they're usually in great shape and the tech in 2-channel audio doesn't chan... | |
| Best bookshelf speakers @stuff_jones1. I would say that unless you're really cranking the volume (over 95db) then I wouldn't worry too much about the sensitivity. You can often find great amps/integrateds on the used market that can easily handle these speakers. I just s... | |
| Best bookshelf speakers I like KEF's (listening to Q150's on my desktop right now), but I think the BMR might be the best deal speaker deal in HiFi. Its like a mini-tower and you won't need a sub. You just need the right space for them as they are large. You will need a ... | |
| Totem Hawks - my impressions I owned a pair of Hawks for a couple of years. I got them used for $1200 and it was the best $1200 I've ever spent. Huge sound for such a small footprint and excellent imaging. I used a Peachtree Nova 220se and later a Primaluna Dialogue One. The ... | |
| Which integrated amp for better musicality - Parasound Hint vs Primaluna vs ??? I have a Primaluna Dialogue One, which is an older version of the Dialogue Premium (not HP), so it's a notch down, but above their Prologue line. I'm using it with Salk Song3's (RAAL tweeter like your Ascends) and an Exogal Comet dac. I wanted the... | |
| Best bookshelf speakers If you're still looking consider trying to find a pair of Peachtree D5 speakers. I think there was a pair on the bay for $400. Designed by the Aerial Acoustics speaker designer for Peachtree. Also might be called Era D5, but the same speaker. Thes... | |
| Recordings with incredible effects or imaging that we may not know about Check out the track "husks and shells" from volcano choir. If I want to listen to something to unwind and only have a few minutes I play that and in 4 minutes I'm transformed. | |
| What is your favorite budget audio component? Under $1000 I would say the peachtree nova 220se I got for $900. 220 wpc, dual mono design, ess dac, class a preamp. Stupid good for $900. The other is my Eastern Electric Minimax Dac Plus I got for $400. | |
| $3000 Speaker Search For those with Spatial speakers, would they work in my room? My speakers are about 7' apart and 9' from my MLP. The front of my speakers are about 18"-24" from the wall -- 24" is the max. The right speaker is open on one side and the left is in a ... |
