| Is Genesis out of business? I hope not!!! If you are talking about speakers, Genesis makes the best speakers that I have heard. I own B&W Nautilus 801 myself and thought that I had found audio nirvana, until recently I heard the Genesis 350 at an audio show.....only one ... | |
| Krell KAV-1500 Vs. KAV-200a I also recently purchased the KAV 1500 and couldn't be happier with its power and sound. Although I have not A/B tested the 200a vs. the 1500, but in reading through the descriptions/specifications of the two models on Krell website and other on-l... | |
| Why does cd mat work? My Krell 250cd is a front drawer loading player. I use Lexicon MC-1 as the preamp/processor, and B&W Nautilus 801 as my main front speakers.I am a US expatriate working in Taipei, Taiwan. I got this cd mat at an high-end audio show here last w... | |
| Best used 5 channels amp. for both music and movies I have a Krell KAV-1500, which is a 5 channel amp @ 300watts/channel. I recently biamped my two front main speakers with four channels with the remaining channel for the center speaker. Wow! - I just cannot believe the tremendous improvement in so... | |
| The BEST system you've ever built !!!! I think I am almost there with my system, although I fear that audio nirvana is really a journey, and never an end game.......I currently have a Lexicon MC-1 processor, Krell KPS28c-cd player, Sony dvp-9000es dvd player, Magnum Dynalab Etude FM tu... | |
| the best of five channel amp.... I would also recommend the Krell KAV 1500, which is a 300watts/channel x 5 channel amplifier. Krell recently updated the cosmetics on their multi-channel amps, chaning to a sleeker-looking metallic sliver for their new home theater line-up. They h... | |
| Krell HTS vs Proceed AVP Sean is right. I have also read in consumer feedback (please check Audioreview on these two models) that current Krell HTS has bugs.Another model you should consider is the Lexicon MC-1. I have auditioned all three previously and chose the MC-1. S... | |
| B W 802 Matrix III: Bright shrieky? I don't have the 802s, but I own a pair of Nautilus 801s (and a Nautilus HTM-1 center and a pair of Nautilus 805 for home theater) and a pair of Matrix 801S3s.Like Snooker14, I too have opted to keep both pairs of 801s, with the new Nautilus in th... | |
| Hate to ask...... I am an American expatriate living in Taipei, Taiwan. I have spoken to many high-end audio dealers here and they all say that the market trend is overwhelmingly toward HT, rather than 2-channel hi-fi. In fact, of interesting to note is that there ... | |
| Which 5 ch Amp for Home Theater? I use a Krell KAV-1500, which is 5x300watts/channel. It is a bit pricy. However, it is probably the best sounding multichannel amp I have heard/used.If you don't mind buying a used amp, a Krell KAV-500 is a great amp at 5x100watts/channel. A used ... | |
| Where to buy new B W801/802 cheap? B&W does a great job of controlling its pricing around the world. In Taiwan, where I live, the list price is around US$11,000 equivalent for the N801 and US$8,000 for the N802, which are the same as in the U.S. In England, I have seen the pric... | |
| 801 Versus Nautilus 801 I have both the Nautilus 801 and the Matrix 801 Series 3. To me, there is really no comparison. The N801 is a far superior speaker to the M801S3 in virtually every way -- accuracy, imaging, soundstage, better top-end and low-end responses, etc. Th... |
