your opinion on subwoofers in two channel I second Butsy: full range floorstander may offer you a real placement issue between imaging and bass response (room nodes and standing waves). With a sub, placement is way more flexible and you get the advantage of monitor imaging. $ for $, I wou... | |
recomended musical sub for 2 channel audio Seconding ML, even Grotto is a real audio deal and reasonably priced compared to the rest of your set up. I demoed one with a pair of ProAc 1SC and had settled on the combo before upgraditis hit again. 22Hz is good enough for most of us!!!! | |
Help needed with Proac 1SC setup I owned the 1Sc and loved them with solid state - Mosfet of high quality and tube-like sound mind you. Looking at your system, I would say that you now have a pair of very revealing speakers that possibly show you all the weaknesses you have upstr... | |
Are there any 5.1 integrateds? Aside from the excellent Linar 10 which I enjoy daily, the new kid on the block seems to be the Pathos Cinema X which I plan to audition at FSI Montreal next month (rumor is it will be there).http://www.musicalsurroundings.com/pathos/cinemax.htmlF... | |
Verity Audio What about Tyler Acoustics? with the 30-day trial, I would not buy any speaker without auditioning his but living in Canada makes the whole trial period a nightmare with custom. The Woodmere are said to be as good as any speaker this side of the M... | |
Verity Audio Redspectral, I was thinking you were hunting for a pair of used speakers and the original Parsifal can be had for less than $7000 (not the Encore). I agree also that the Fidelio are a class act and close to Parsifal (not as low) for a lot less ($3... | |
Speaker recommendations please Even if I repeat myself, a used pair of Verity Parsifal or Avalon Opus. | |
Best MONITORS availables No I did not, afraid that the even higher level of resolution could be "too much of a good thing" and dissect music a bit too much for domestic use..not to mention a pricing that gets closer to the Ascendant I believe. Did you audition them? | |
Verity Audio Redspectral, with all due respect, someone interested in Verity's sound and build cannot fall for Wilson, can he?!!!! if you increase your budget to match Wilson "Plutonian" asking price, may be you should be looking at a pair of Verity Parsifal o... | |
Given Avalon Eidleon is considered one of the best I have listened to Diamond, Opus, Ascendant and bought Studio Pro for obvious (!) budget reasons. Both Ascendant and Studio are tremendous achievers and the Studio Pro offers bass to only 34Hz but its quality is even better than on some higher Ava... | |
Best MONITORS availables I do not know about absolute Best but for $2500, the Avalon Studio Pro provide all that I expect from a monitor. They are amazing in their ability to portrait recordings, ultimate transparency and down to 34 Hz or less in an exemplary way...a barg... | |
Speaker recommendation for Cayin a88t/kt88 Had it with AP Yaras and loved the combo. | |
Is this typical Service? Daveherm69: Since their purchase by B&W about 4-5 yrs ago, Classe is no longer a "CDN company" as you say...for true CDN stuff, check Anthem, Linar, Bryston....Classe is now a big international company and their warranty policy may not be as e... | |
Totem Forest uses a Swan driver??????? To clarify, I was not alluding to DIY as being the ultimate solution as I would not know where to start personally....I was just thinking that with a $30 tweeter, a $60 bass driver and a nice rigid cabinet with good looking veneer, someone could a... | |
Does one NEED multiple amps? True Audiophiles would NEED and own more than one amp..this is why they are Audiophiles. Music lovers would own the right amp and NEED none in fact. Truth is it is hard to stop being an Audiophile when one visits Agon everyday or so. Agon is about... |
