Paradigm S6V3 or PSB Synchrony One
Also considering Thiel CS2.4 if anyone knows how it compares. 
What to replace Nordost speaker cable?
Definitely try the Morrow cables... 
paradigm s8 vs psb synchrony one
I am considering the s6 against the Synchrony Ones, although I can get the Ones quite a bit cheaper where I am. In particular they'd be for a room about 18 x 14 feet, so I don't want boomy bass.Anyone tried the s6?Also what improvements were there... 
Accuphase E450 vs Pass INT150
Hi thereI have located the JR250 in Australia as well as the Luxmans...may wait for the 507u Luxman to be released here in mid-May. Any Agon memebers tried it yet against 505u? 
Accuphase E450 vs Pass INT150
Just found a Luxman dealer in Australia:) L505u is about $5300 (hopefully can discount)although may not have enough watts for PSB Synchrony Ones to control the bass.Although the new Stereophile suggests the ATC is ahead of the Luxman...John Marks ... 
Accuphase E450 vs Pass INT150
Anyone know how tight the bass is on the Accuphase compared to the Pass or Simaudio?Thanks 
Accuphase E450 vs Pass INT150
Found out I can get the ARC DSI200 for about $6500. SOmehow I suspect the one I heard was not fully broken in as it sounded quite clinical compared to the pass.

Will look out for the Anthem, I suspect it will be $3000 here.My bank account is heading towards the ATC amp, a lot of favourable reviews out there. Interestingly enough its only $3400 here. 
Accuphase E450 vs Pass INT150
Forget to mention I can't get an Accuphase demo here, but I can demo the others.... 
Accuphase E450 vs Pass INT150
Thanks, but unfortunately there is no Luxman distributor in Australia.I tried the INT-150 against the ARC DSI200 today, but both are grossly overpriced in Australia, about US$9,500-10,000 after discount.INT150 seemed to have more midrange body and... 
PSB Synchrony One owners - placement question?
Thanks for your comments!I agree about losing bottom end extension by closing the bottom port (tried it in the store).I am planning to get them into a room about 12" wide, maybe 16" deep and 9" high. I am moving up from the Synchrony Twos for whic... 
Simaudio I7 vs P5.3/W5.3
They strongly recommend I try the 600i before going down the pre/power path...anyone had a listen yet? 
Simaudio I7 vs P5.3/W5.3
Where I live the market is very limited, so no niche products like Calypso here!!Interestingly Simaudio emailed me this about the W5 and W5.3"P-5 and W-5 was the top of the line, a few years ago. If we can compare P-5 and P-5.3 (sonically speaking... 
Simaudio I7 vs P5.3/W5.3
Do any W5/W5.3 users find the poweramp bass heavy at all?Thanks 
Simaudio I7 vs P5.3/W5.3
Thanks - I have a Simaudio I3RS Integrated that is 100W into 8/170W into 4ohms. My speakers are PSB Synchrony Twos (maybe moving up to Ones) that dip below 3 ohms in the bass. My I3RS handles the bass exceptionally well considering this.So I am th...
