| LFD NCSE Hegel H200? You have to look at the two companies and see your personal feelings about the two companies.Personally I feel LFD to be way too small of a boutique company basically one guy, and no remote and limited product line and very, very, few dealers, as ... | |
| Manley 300B preamp with 300B SE/PP amp The 300b amp with the right speakers is a more magical combination, and of course there is synergy with the preamp.You do lose a bit of slam compared to the Snappers, but you gain in terms of sound stage and mid-range naturalness.Dealer disclaimer | |

| Raven AC3 EBM just because something is made in Germany doesn't mean it is better. Swiss made products or Italian, or British or American, or Japanese made there are numerous examples of fantastic workmanship and precision manufacturing in this industry as ... | |
| Raven AC3 The Raven is an excellent table, however, I would not limit myself just to one table as there are a few other tables which are new contenders to being some of the best sounding tables on the market:The new Merrill Williams is dramatically less exp... | |
| Wilson Sophia The Sophias are better speakers, more dynamic and exciting.However, there are tons of other speakers which are equally good in that price point:I would put the following on your list:KEF 207.2 Vivid B1Revel Salon | |
| Where would you go after Wilson WP7? Dear Audiogoners, Your lack of experience is remarkable! No one has asked about cabling, power conditioning, or how much music vs home theater is happening. As usual with most audiogoners vs professionals you guys are not looking at the entire pic... | |
