| If you could do a blind shootout... Hell; just bring Stevie-- or for a "double blind test" also bring Ray Charles with you.Also along with Rhljazz's savy input; make sure all the speakers have 500 hrs, at least.(My Wilsons had so so bass for about 6/8 months.) | |
| Fix My Preamp vs. Buy Phono Stage I don't know but do that pre have a tube for the phono section??--As sometimes that is all it can be.--Had that happen to my w/ my AR 9. | |

| Matching Amp to Wilson Sophia 2 As a Sophia 2 owner; and just having re read the Lamm M 1.2 review I agree re. the price. Now I'm not saying if I had the pair in my house---.( I may fall in love.)I also had the one's before the 2's. I drove them with a pair of CJ 8's. My present... | |
| ss amp synergy w/wilsons Every once in a while somebody asks the exact question I have had on my mind. I own the Soph;2's. I would guess my speakers might be a tad more forgiving than the 7's or 8's. ( of amp selection)I also don't think I could handle the big Pass's w/o ... | |
| any science to mix and match speakers for HT? I run a hodgepodge of speakers. I only play 1 or 2 movies a week, but my 2ch is on, just about all the time.

| Using two center channel LCR speakers for stereo There is a thread from 3/4 years ago explaining why this isn't such a hot idea. However, maybe 15 years ago I had a Mirage set-up;wherein it worked wonders for me. Their center had such a narrow focus and 2 of 'em did much to fill the center. So I... | |
