| Powering Acoustic Zen Adagios Heard some of the above, but now got offered a Dynavector set:L200 mk1 preamp HX75 mk2 powerThese are quite scarce and even as used are above my budget (pre-negotiation) - has anyone heard them and can shed some light on this alternative? | |
| Powering Acoustic Zen Adagios I've been offered a Shanling SP80 pair. They deliver 50w, should this be sufficient? | |
| Powering Acoustic Zen Adagios Anyone? | |
| Powering Acoustic Zen Adagios I am leaning towards the Mc 202 based solely on appearence and nostalgia, but would rather hear your unbiased recommendations. The AZ are fairly easy to drive (89db into 6ohms).The JOB 225 are the only ones I cannot audition and would require a le... | |
| Powering Acoustic Zen Adagios Another option is to order the Job 225 power amp directly from the factory, costs would be pretty much the same as buying a used piece locally. | |
| User friendly playback software Clementine works great, I even installed it my phone so now I have a handy remote as well - thanks! | |
| User friendly playback software @Zd542Thanks,I'll give them a try - one at a time until I hit what suits me best.As a side note, one must wonder how complicated is it to build a decent sounding, user friendly, moderately priced playing software? | |
| Center speaker - Dynaudio Contour vs ATC C3C Update - went for the ATC. Love it.After some calibration works like a charm, much more coherent than before. Dialogues are crisp and clear.Now is the time to think about upgrading the surrounds.. | |
| Center speaker - Dynaudio Contour vs ATC C3C I am not buying another pair to use a single speaker as a center, they are not sold in singles. and they are also beyond my budget. Plus, I have size limitations.There is no AC Rythm available here, hence one of the alternatives in the headline wo... | |
| Center speaker - Dynaudio Contour vs ATC C3C @T1s49: The front pair is Aurum Cantus Volla@Soix: The grills stay on either way, so as far as I care they can look like an albino octopus as long as they sound good | |
| Acoustics - stonewool based panels Thank guys.I followed your advice and the panels did make quite a difference | |
| Chinese integrated for around $1k I have an option to purchase localy a used ATC SIA2-150 or a BMC C1, either one for around $3k/Given the shipping the shipping costs and the taxation on the Dussun, this is about $1k difference between the options.What do you say, are they even co... | |
| Chinese integrated for around $1k The Lina Magnetic Audio is nowhere near the power requirements of my speakers (the ribbon tweeters make them power hungry). 38w just won't do the trick.I hope the 150w of the Dussun V6i will, but am not sure. | |
| Chinese integrated for around $1k Cayin 265i is only 40wpc. I don't think that's enough to drive the Vollas. Is there any other integrated model by Cayin that might fit?As for Jolida, I'll research them as well. | |
| Chinese integrated for around $1k Thanks for the responses.There are no distributors of Chi-fi where I live (Israel), so this is going to be a blind buy while holding my fingers crossed (online search teaches me there are no known reliability issues).I contacted the Dussun owner a... |
