| S.F. Cremona vs Wilson Benesch Curves Good news, Mike...Yes, Wilson Benesch does not get enough press here in the states, but their equipment is absolutely amazing. I'm so happy with my new ACT purchase.Good luck.-George | |
| Stable component rack Another great rack option/company is Rix Rax (www.rixrax.com)Beautiful and solid.-George | |
| S.F. Cremona vs Wilson Benesch Curves I have not heard the Cremona's but can attest to the high build quality and sound quality of the WB line of speakers (from the ARC's to the Chimera's). I actually just bought a brand new pair of ACT's myself.The Curve's are fantastic. The only neg... | |
| Tubes with Tylers Jsawhitlock,I don't know about the Ref III's, but I know that with the Tyler Signature's, tubes don't work very well unless you have tons of tube power. I tried some 70-watt class A mono's with the Sig's and it sucked. The speakers draw all kinds ... | |
| Best Price on REga Jupiter I can recommend someone you can call who might be able to ship one to you... Symphony Sound (www.symphonysound.com) in Chicago. Check out there website and then call Evan Trent (owner) and leave him a message. Extremely professional. Tell him Ajaz... | |
| Speakers for Primaluna 3/5 My personal opinion is the Audes Blues. I have a pair for sale (which is not why I'm suggesting this, only to let you know that I have used this speaker fully to know, and I'm not shipping mine so this isn't an offer, etc.).The Blues work extremel... | |
| Wilson Benesch Discovery The recommendation of greater than 300 watts is totally false.I've heard the Discoveries with 100 solid state watts sound fantastic. You could probably get away with 70-80 if the amp is just right.That's not to say that more watts aren't better, t... | |
| Wilson Benesch A.C.T. is the current model. ACT1 and ACT2 were the previous models.all the info is available on their website...http://www.wilson-benesch.com/speakers.html-ajazi | |
| Just upgraded to the DK VS-1 Signature Procalc,Does DK actually give you the newer unit design or just replace the innards of the Reference unit?Thanks,ajazi | |
| Speaker recommendation for Tube Setup $1500? Audes Blues. No question. Especially for EL-34 setups.I love mine: http://www.ajazi.com/stereo.cfmAnd you can get them used for less than $1500.Regards,George Ajazi | |
| Please recommend a good Tube preamp. Or even a Joule Electra LA-100 Mk III. Not as good as the LA-150, but a fantastic preamp nonetheless. I love mine.Used for around $2000 with remote. You will see a lot of Mk I's that were upgraded to Mk III status. But a "real" Mk III with remote ... | |
| Best Floorstander Under 10K? Don't bother with the WB Curves... If you're going to get Wilson Benesch's, you have to get at least the ACT's.Which you should be able to get for about $10K from a dealer if you really push. ($12K retail)The Curves just do not have enough bass.My... | |
| Best speaker for $1500???, Have Cary SLI-80 Get yourself some Audes Blues.You will love them. Great all-around sound for the money. A good set is available right now on Gon.They will solve your mids/highs issue.On the bottom they go down to 45Hz (which is plenty enough for me at least).-Geo... | |
| Speaker choices, $1000-2000 Smooth & Musical No question, you must add the Audes Blues to this list. You can get them new for $2200 or $2K. Used for $1200 or something.I own these myself and absolutely love them. A steal. Honest to goodness. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century What I'm looking for is a Supratek preamp WITH REMOTE. Does NOT need phono (i'm not into vinyl, please don't attack me for that comment...).So, preferably a Chardonnay or something. Hopefully with the Stainless Steel finish. Also like the piano bl... |
