| Can you give me your speaker suggestions? @palutena audition B&W 800 series speakers. The SF Sonetto are good too but they don’t have the pulp mids you’re looking for and are light on bass. Other speakers to consider would be the older Wilson Sophia that you can find used within your ... | |
| SEEKING AN AMPLIFIER THAT MATES WELL WITH MARTIN LOGAN 11 A IMPRESSIONS I had the Montis (similar to 11A) paired with Rogue ST-100/RP1 and ST-100/RP5 combos and then upgraded to Pass XA30.8 with XP12 preamp. While the Rogue gear sounded good, the Pass combo took it to another level. Rogue sounded a but dry. I heard t... | |
| Why Are There So Many Used Rogue ST-100's Being Offered For Sale? The ST100 is a great amp backed by excellent customer service. Overall it’s a great value. I owned one and never had the transformer hum issues. | |

| The weirdness of it all @celtic66 try a furutech gtx-d ncf outlet. Add to the weirdness of it all. | |
| need advise, which is the weakest link in my audio chain Yes the diffusion panels on the side walls leave a lot to be desired. My recommendation still stands - absorption instead of diffusion on the side walls. Also, the corner bass traps up towards the ceiling…are they foam? They’re probably good at re... | |
| need advise, which is the weakest link in my audio chain @nagasakti70 just curious how thick are the absorption panels. You mentioned the sound becomes dull when you place the absorbers on the side walls. Also what is the material used in the panels? If it’s foam it would explain the effect. With qualit... | |
| need advise, which is the weakest link in my audio chain If you’re looking to upgrade components, two things…integrated like the Pass Int60 or even Int25, and new dac plus streamer. Ditch the bryston separates, use your Marantz as a transport plus stream from Qobuz or Tidal . Keep in mind, as I said ear... | |

| need advise, which is the weakest link in my audio chain Lots of good advice above… I would add few things to try: 1. This will cost nothing: Swap diffusion and absorption panels - place the absorbers on side walls and diffusers behind speakers. If possible. Reason - room is most likely too small to m... | |
| need advise, which is the weakest link in my audio chain Few possibilities to improve… 1. Room acoustics - any room treatments? How big is the room? What does the speaker placement look like - distance from walls, distance between speakers, toe in? 2. Power - do you use a power conditioner? 3. Do the... | |
| Cable re-termination in NJ area @carlsbad2 we’re good. And I have no basis to doubt your abilities to get this done. It’s also a cool gesture to help out the OP. I’m sure he’ll make the correct decision. | |
| Cable re-termination in NJ area carlsbad2 161 posts 05-14-2023 at 03:19pm Yes, it might improve them. Lots of us improve on OEM work. Jerry I’m well aware. Up to an individual on how to approach this. DYI upgrades of factory brand name cables always diminish the res... | |
| Cable re-termination in NJ area @mrupgrade contact Robert Lee to see what he can offer. I would be cautious having these cables re-termibated by someone other than AZ as it will definitely reduce the resale value and I’m questioning the impact to sound as well - connectors affe... | |
