| Do Integrateds sound better than Receivers? It's been my experience that similar priced products within a brand (similar priced integrated vs receiver) will sound about the same. A new $500 Yamaha Receiver and a new $500 Yamaha integrated, even with different s/n ratios, etc, probably will ... | |
| B&K ST-140 vs ex-442 sound charactor B&K was purchased and never has started back up. The web site has been the same for the last few years. | |
| B&K ST-140 vs ex-442 sound charactor As, based on your original post, I am inclined to believe you WANT the EX442, go for it.Yes. In the scheme of things, $550 is dirt cheap for an amp plus I already know the general sound characteristics. | |
| B&K ST-140 vs ex-442 sound charactor I've only heard the Zu's briefly at shows, so I can't comment on their particular considerations. While the ST 140 is lovely amp for it's price and limitations, both the B&K EX442 and the c-j MF 80 share a similar sonic character, but are bet... | |
| B&K ST-140 vs ex-442 sound charactor If you are happy with your B&K ST-140, stay with B&K. DO you have an estimated cost to have the caps replaced in these units? About $250 and that includes installing a new, longer power cord. The current cord is fine, however, it's about 4... | |
| B&K ST-140 vs ex-442 sound charactor I've come to learn after research that $770 is a bit much. I have found them for less than $500 online | |
| B&K ST-140 vs ex-442 sound charactor The same person also has a CJ Mf-80 that he will sell me ($700) in perfect working order. Would that be a better buy than the ex442 for $300 for the long term? | |
| B&K ST-140 vs ex-442 sound charactor Thanks for feedback. I think I'll pick the amp up. I'll try it out, if it does not suit my system, then I'll just have the 140 updated. I really like the B&K amp I have. Very musical. | |
| TUBE AMP LOVERS - What SS amp makes you smile??? Here's a question for Tube Users. I love deep bass and have always (both tone controls and EQ whichever I had) bumped up the low end a bit. On the same hand, I'm not a fan of external Sub Woofers. One of the best things I love about my low end B&a... | |
| ZU event (version 1) speaker cables on sale/closeout I'll be curious how the bass opens up more as they get broken in. | |
| ZU event (version 1) speaker cables on sale/closeout Great feedback. Softer highs are a good thing (for me anyway). Keep us posted as they break in. We moved from a condo 2 years ago. I purchased my Omen Defs in the condo and they sounded great there. However, since moving to our house, I have been ... | |
| Audio advisor and Constellation amplifiers Just poor photo selection | |
| Audio advisor and Constellation amplifiers AA saves money on advertising. Basically the same catalog for the past 20 years. The girl model is probably now pushing 60. AA still using her images from 15 years ago. They finally changed ol' Peter Madnick's photo. The new one not much better. | |
| Yamaha A-S3000 - any experiences? My ZU Omen Defs are quite efficient (I believe 101 db). They play nice with lower wattage amps. 100 + watts is way more than adequate | |
| Yamaha A-S3000 - any experiences? Good info thanks |
