| Klipsch Speakers I’ve owned klipsch Lascala Ii’s for several years. As I’ve changed components, the Klipsch have radically transformed in sound quality. Interconnects, amps, and cartridges all created significant effects. Once too bright, then too soft…they reflec... | |
| My first tube integrated: which one to get? I was in the same position. I wanted to try a tube integrated for starters. The preamp and amp separates seemed more complicated and hence expensive. There are slot of choices but I wanted auto bias so I could overcome my fears of new stuff. The r... | |
| Do You Tell Others How Much You Have Invested in Your System? I never tell anyone. Most people would think its too much to spend and they will usually get a bad/weird attitude. However, my wife does remind me how much I've spent. May I remind some that a $20,000 boat is commonly enviable. $35,000 on new kit... | |
| CD player suggestions... Peterpetre: If your "range" can be stretched a little first get the Audiolab 6000 CDT then budget for DAC on the cheap until more $$ comes along because the Audiolab is top. DAC's are getting better all the time and you can upgrade that kit in tim... | |
| Primaluna and Rogue Just throwing a comment in the mix....I too was once looking at Rogue, Prima Luna, Leben, and Line Magnetic Ended up going with Raven Audio. On the less expensive end of that group. Reviews made it sound crazy good for the money. Unfortunately I'm... | |
| Best 12AU7 Type Tubes for a Preamp Excellent thread. About two weeks ago decided to shuffle the pre amp tube line up on my Raven Nighthawk/Blackhawk modified, and pure magic was the result. (User experiences may vary) Front row went Volvo/Mullard 3 hole ECC81 (12AT7 equivalent), , ... | |
| What is the forums opinion of SVS subs? I own the SVS SB2000 Pro. It sits upon my homemade bungee trapeze which isolates the sub from floor. While waiting for delivery, I didn't have much hope, To my surprise, the blending with my Klipsch Lasalas is wonderful. I had all but given up on... | |
| CD player suggestions... Big shout out for Audiolab 6000CDT. I've wasted tons of $$ on 6 CD players ending at Yamaha S2000 which uses their state of the art transport. This beauty broke down again after a year back from the shop. In desperation I bought Audiolab 6000 CDT ... | |
| Looking for Focal Stella amplifier suggestions I run Focal Elears. In an A - B shoot out between these and the electrostatic (or something like that tech) Hi-Fi Man HE 400i, the victor was clear. Being conscious of volume adjusting prior to evaluations, the Focal was MUCH better in everyway. (... | |
| Why not horns? I wonder how many "horny" readers are sitting back wondering what our naysayers would think if they sat in our sweet spot? If my ears are being tricked into thinking my Klipsch Lascalas are clean, mean, music machines when actually they are distor... | |
| Compatibility between speakers and sub. After spending a pile of cash trying various subs, the SVS SB2000 Pro was finally able to fit in with my room and Klipsch Lascalas. I thought I had given up on a sub ever being able to blend in. They have an app that you can use to tailor the freq... | |
| Upgrade path question. Upgrade analog or turn to digital? Tough call. To get streaming properly where the quality won't frustrate you. is fairly pricey, (At least that was my experience) Each format transition was for convenience, 8-tracks played endlessly. Auto-reverse cassettes kept dance going. LP in ... | |
| Intermittent low hum/buzz HUM X does help but for my system it was renamed HUM-(minus) because while there was a perceptible diminishing of hum it wasn't gone, The improvement was well worth the $50 bucks I paid. For what its worth a solid clay brick on top of the transfor... | |
| Horn speakers are really bright? Crazy as it was, my first serious upgrade was to buy a pair of new Klipsch Lascalas II. Immediately they were hooked up to an inferior system. Cambridge receiver, cheap CD player, stock cabling. As the last few years have passed I've replaced each... | |
| Mad Scientists Audio Nano Tweaks Mad Scientist Contact Liquid (AFTER 48 HOURS) On the paper work included with the Graphene Contact Enhancer it states that immediately upon application one will benefit about 80%. They suggest more enhancement will occur after 24 to 48 hours. This... |
