| Looking for the king of mini monitors under $1500 Check other thread going on for near-field listening monitor that I started...plenty of good ideas, a little too pricy new but some used should fit in. | |
| Which Hi-end monitor for near field listening Actually, i like floorstanders when they behave like monitors with more "balls". Your suggestions are quite interesting, especially the DeVore Super 8. Tough for me to audition though. | |
| totem arro or rainmaker or von schweikert vr1 I had great sucess with 22wpc triode with Arros in a room 11*13, so much that I almost popped the woofer out! As a rule of thumb, tube power is as efficient as solid state power divided 2 to 2.5 (this is not universal but pretty close). So, if I w... | |
| totem arro or rainmaker or von schweikert vr1 Unless you want to rock the dorm and play at huge SPL, Arros better than Rainmaker based on my audition with a MF 3.2 integrated. And they completely disappear which is really coool! VR1 probably very good but Arros would be my known choice. Arros... | |
| Which Hi-end monitor for near field listening Thanks to all and also to those who sent me e-mails with thier opinions and sometimes offer. I will continue to enjoy suggestions but am leaning toward either the SR17, TSM-MX, Callisto or possibly a custom Taylo Ref by Tyler. Funny that we are so... | |
| Which Hi-end monitor for near field listening Any correlation between sensitivity and tonal balance? over the years, I found most high sensitivity speakers I listened to to be rather "thin" but again they were mostly French: JM Lab, Triangle, Cabasse...and other in the 86-89 db to be thicker ... | |
| Which Hi-end monitor for near field listening One more thing: isn't the Revelator tweeter a bit forward thus not necessarily adapted to nearfield listening? some of the models above use the Revelator and I would rather have a little more backward than forward sound. | |
| Which Hi-end monitor for near field listening Let me add that I would rather have a thin than thick midrange as I have a sweet Mosfet and powerful amp. Anyone can recommend out of the list above recommended which one would be better?Tks, these are great suggestions and I will audition a short... | |
| Looking for non-boomy full range speakers Good point, i will think about it and try a loaner as I liked the 906 but wanted to go deeper....FYI, I had a pair of SF Concerto (older model) in that same room and the bass (or mid-low) bloated like hell....but the amp may have been two soft and... | |
| Looking for non-boomy full range speakers you room is 15*14...mine is 11*13...don't you think that this could negatively affect the result? I know we ar only talking a few feet less but I had in mind the 926 was fairly generous in lower mids? | |
| Looking for non-boomy full range speakers I use a Linar 10, 5.1 integrated SS, sweet Mosfet. I have had my share of good monitors (Electra 906, SF Signum, Triangle Titus) so I can always go back to the 45Hz and up sound and live with it...but you know what this hobby is all about, finding... | |

| jm lab new profile Replacement of Electra, better tweeter with performance close to the Berrylium one without the price, trickle down techno from Utopia Be range: possibly the real deal at a very realistic pricing (less than $3500 for the FL model) | |
| Cheap volume for large room Tyler Accoustics...always some used or on sale items and a pair of 7Us or better, Linbrook system II should do the job well. Both are currently on sale on Agon for less than $3500. (not affiliated with Tyler by any means...just the best value on s... |
