Center channel for Avalon Eidolons Hi Dbw1, I know you initiated this thread a long while ago, but did you ever find a matching center for your Avalon Eidolon? I bought a few months ago a pair of Avalon Eidolon Vision for my main speakers and Evolution speakers for surrounds. For t... | |
Opinions on the Avalon Evolutions ? I have both Avalon Eidolon Vision and Evolution speakers in my system. There is NO comparison between the two. They are in two way different classes - Eidolon is extreme audiophile class (US$25,000 a pair), Evolution is high-end audio (US$2,000 a ... | |
3-Meter vs. 10-Foot Long Speaker Cables Thanks guys for your responses - you guys are great!!! And thank you for straightening me out....I'm finally starting the realize the silliness (and perhaps idiocy)of being an audiophile.... I sometimes wonder whether I will get to a point where I... | |
Thinking of getting a Krell FBP 600 Bob, I have B&W N801s and am currently driving them with Krell FPB600 amp, and they sound terrific together. Amp has no problem in handling N801s whatsoever. Also, FPB600 has a standby mode, so you don't need to leave it on like the older mode... | |
I need help to decide on multi channel amp config. Hi Alfredo,I have listened to both Aragon and Rotel amps previously, and my preference is for Aragon. I find that Aragon has more depth and detail.....but that is just my preference....As crazy as it sounds, I would recommend that you go for 2 fiv... | |

Picking the right amp... Jesseasi, you have some good suggestions from fellow A'goners in above posts. If 80% of your use is for home theater, as you have indicated, then I am not sure you will go wrong with the brands mentioned above.I currently use a Krell KAV-1500 and ... | |
Bryston 7B Vs. Krell KAV250a Please make sure you audition both amplifiers before you make your decision. These two amps sound very different.I currently have a Krell KAV-1500 and a Krell 250a/3 for my home theater system. Two months ago, I bought a second-hand Bryston 4B-ST ... | |
Best spkrs for rock: Dunlavy V-Watt/Puppy-Revel?? I would recommend high-end JBL speakers. I live in Asia, and JBL still markets some really high-end speakers out here. However, these high-end beasts are classic JBL in sound - absolutely awesome for any type of rock, classic rock, or live music o... | |
Bi Amping... worth it? Treyhoss: I was lucky enough to find from my Audioquest distributor here in Taiwan Y-adaptors made by Audioquest. These are very high quality Y-adaptors that I use to connect my Audioquest Python RCA interconnects to my pre-amp. These Y-Adaptors a... | |
Krell 300CD - what DAC to add on? I'm with Greys2k. If you like Krell, you might just want to trade up to their newer models with 24-bit DACs. I had a Krell KAV-250cd. I decided to upgrade, and got myself the Krell KPS-28c for $3,500 used. Needless to say, it is a significant impr... | |
Suggestions on integrated tube amps? You should take a look at Jadis Orchestra integrated amp (30 watts/channel). I have one for use as a second system in my bedroom, and it sounds terrific. For info, you can find it in Jadis' website. Used price on Audiogon is in your range. | |
Nautilus 801's- Cheaper Amplification Dp37 - you have got what I have. I also have a pair of N801s, with HTM, and N805 in a five speaker home theater set up. My audio habits are also 50/50 home theater vs. 2-channel listening. I have a Krell KAV-1500 which does the job quite well. It ... | |
Smallest tube system for bed room If you don't mind buying used gear, you should check out the LS3/5a spekers (Rogers, Spendor, etc.) and Jadis Orchestra tube integrated amp. I have both of these in my bedroom system and they sound wonderfully sweet, particularly if you like vocal... |
