| Anyone heard the Meadowlark Blue Herons ? My only tube experience is with pre amps, not power amps...personally, I would think you would be better off with the solid state equivalent of 250w/ch. | |
| Anyone heard the Meadowlark Blue Herons ? I have the Blue Heron's...used to have Heron-i.These speakers are fabulous from top to bottom! They sound better than other brands that cost 2-3 times as much. They are a killer value.I have no problems w/bass, though I am using 350 watt mono amps... | |
| Meadowlark owners DH Labs Q-10 are the cables on my Blue Herons (previously used them on my Heron-i as well.)Nice cable for the $. However, I have not done much comparing to other brands. | |
| Power Cord for Spectral DMC-30 Pre Amp Flex:Any recommendations from Spectral experience with cables that are about 1/2 of the cost of the ZIII ?Thanks! | |

| Should I upgrade my Krell FPB 200c to cx300? I currently have the version of FPB-350M that was made prior to "CAST". I use these with a tube pre-amp, which I do not intend to change. Therefore, does anybody know if these performance improvments (after upgrades) hold true while not usung the ... | |
| New Meadowlark Swallow monitor I have heard the Swifts and they kick ass, especially at that price.I saw the swallows but did not hear them...seriously well built.I am sure you will not be dis-satisfied (especially once they are broken in.) | |

| Meadowlark Swift...How do they sound? I heard a pair that were in a large room and were broken in.They are very nice and musical. Bass was surprisingly heavy and full. I would guess that what you heard were not broken in enough or lacked in amplification.They seem to be an extreme val... | |
| Is It Worth Modifying an ARC LS16? If anyone contacts Great Northern regarding a modification, please post his recommendations/price. Maybe we could do better on price if we upgraded a few LS-16's as a "group purchase."Has anyone found any earth shattering improvements w/any partic... | |
| Is It Worth Modifying an ARC LS16? I have the same pre and posted a similar question a few months ago. It does not appear that any visitors here have done the upgrade.I do not feel that I lack bass...maybe your other components/cable are holding back the pre's performance. I am abo... | |
| Krell KAV250A upgrade to FPB300? I had an FPB-300 and sold it to go w/mono FPB-350's. The FPB-300 is nice. However, if you can hold off and swing the $ (especially buying a good, used piece,) go for the FPB-600...more dynamic and musical. Consider the big picture for the long hau... |
