| For tube sound, which is more important: preamp or power amp? In my experience the pre-amp is much more important. Infind as you deal with smaller and smaller signal levels the component can impart a greater imprint on the sound. However I would only use a solid-state amp for bass duty or if I had a speake... | |
| Integrated amp for Klipsch Forte The beauty of your speaker is it is very efficient. It begs for low powered tube amplification. As an earlier poster already mentioned if you feel the need for more bass once you have a good tube amp I would get an equalizer of sorts. | |
| Soundstage and explosive dynamics? Rbstenho I agree speakers with multiple smaller woofers can go very low and clean in the bass. However these speakers almost always are less efficient so they do not have the best dynamics. The op asked for explosive dynamics and that is where ... | |
| Soundstage and explosive dynamics? I don't know the ESS and have never heard that particular model of the focal. In my experience paper cone, large diameter, efficient drivers offer some of the best tone and impact in the business. Again you can't cheat physics. | |
| Soundstage and explosive dynamics? If you can get volti in your budget jump on it! Amazing speakers. | |

| Soundstage and explosive dynamics? Kosst I guess I should've said you need big drivers and efficiency. If you have both of those attributes it will deliver in spades. If you don't have the size you need much more than one driver and then generally you lose out in the imaging, sta... | |

Since then I have fiddled with things and experimented with differing amounts of fluid and I believe I have things working well. I just absolutely love the arm now! I h... | |
| Esoteric C03 preamp or Mark Levinson 326S preamp- ANY and ALL FEEDBACK / HELP PLEASE I would go with the atmosphere. If you didn't like the bat in my opinion the tubes were not the problem. I would definitely go with Tubes for what you're looking for. | |
| Soundstage and explosive dynamics? then you haven't heard enough speakers. | |
| Please help me chose a tube preamp I had and aesthetix Rhea signature with a premium tube set at the same time as a Zesto, a herron and a cheap ASL phono. In short the aesthetixs finished last in sound quality, even behind the ASL that was worth about $600 new(it did have mods). ... | |
| Teo Game-Changer IC's - get on the bus! Tara's The business you are in is not honest and fair so you cannot expect honest and fair treatment in return. | |
