What is your take on Def Tech XTR60's?
Actually.... I have heard many DT speakers... they are not very good MUSIC speakers.... they are just fine for HOME THEATER. That is how I came to that conclusion. 
What is your take on Def Tech XTR60's?
I am using Sonus Faber Cremona towers, LINN Akurate DS, a pair of REL Storm III subs and Primaluna tube monoblocks, along with Audioquest speaker cables, LeeLoss powercords and Nordost IC's for my music system. I care much less about the theater s... 
Magico Room at RAMF How good did it sound
Horrible waste of money... 
What is your take on Def Tech XTR60's?
Funny... I am using three ProCenter 2000's across the front, sounds just fine and DT recommends crossing them over anyway.... so I am using like 20 watts to drive those super effecient speakers. Why would I buy a pre/pro combo? Not needed. DT's wi... 
Magico Q7 . . . wow
 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
Had the Zu's... HORRIBLE speakers. Huge flat spot in the midrange freq. Not sure how anyone could listen to these and like them. 
Magico Q7 . . . wow
Apples to apples (spending a given amount of $$$ and the same electronics), I do not understand how anyone could choose any Magico over SF. Maybe you guys need some Q-Tips?You could put a very nice sounding system together for what just the Magico...

Running an older Denon HT receiver. For a theater setup, you already have good enough gear.... the speakers will make a bigger difference. 
Best center speaker match for Spendor 1/2e
Any Spendor speaker with the same exact tweeter. The tweeters should ALWAYS match across the front. The surround channel speakers are much less important. I used a LINN Tukan (tipped on its side) as a center for years to match my front LINN speake... 
Magico Q7 . . . wow
For around $45k, the Sonus Faber Strads simply TRASH the $88k Magico speakers that I heard IN EVERY WAY POSSIBLE. If you are comparing a sub $50k speaker, there is no comparison between SF and Magico. Magico are dry sounding, non-involving and way... 
One sub or two?
Phasecorrect...Two subs in almost ANY room will sound better. 
Magico Q7 . . . wow
Very OVER RATED and OVER PRICED... I heard so many Sonus Faber speakers trash the Magico at less cost. 
What is your take on Def Tech XTR60's?
I own Def Techs for theater setup... I have never heard any sound good enough for dedicated 2-ch music. 
When is digital going to get the soul of music?
MY LINN Akurate DS already has the soul of the music... 
Stand alone dac vs built in dac what's the better
What Tmsorosk said about "keeping the noise away..." is the main reason to ditch the CD transport or CD player alltogether. A LINN DS unit will simply trash most CD players under $15k on the planet. I have heard it. Use DbPoweramp to rip your exis...
