Subwoofer for Wilson Maxx2
Full range no crossover. Don't hesitate, you will be satisfied. 
Subwoofer for Wilson Maxx2
A well integrated sub typically creates a realistic foundation for the music, and improves imaging. If there is any change in the tonal balance it leans toward warming the presentation. I have mine on a carpeted floor. FYI, I also found relatively... 
Subwoofer for Wilson Maxx2
I had Wilson Maxx 2's for years and now have Alexandias. The bass in the Maxx 2 is plentiful, but can be difficult to control. Initially I had a REL Studio III with the Maxx's. I ultimately got a pair of JL 113's. I can not recommend them more hig... 
Nice Tube Preamp for Boulder 1060
I'm not familiar with your CD player. You may have figured out by now that everything makes a difference and synergy is huge. A tube pre could be an easy way out. Seems a shame because your components were designed to work together. By far the big... 
Nice Tube Preamp for Boulder 1060
What preamp do you have? I had a 1012 matched to a 2060 amp with Maxx 2 speakers for years and have a few ideas as to what will help. FWIW, all cables have some sound. Silver is detailed but bright. It sounds like you have too much of that already... 
Subwoofer to go with Wilson Maxx II's
I had Maxx 2's and a REL studio 3. Now I have Alexandrias and a pair of JL Audio F113's. My current bass is FAR superior to what I had previously. I think it is important to know what you are trying to achieve. In short, I would get a pair of appr... 
My Venture into Hifi with Vandersteen Model 1
The VS 1B was my first speaker which satisfied me for 15 years combined with a Denon integrated. I never thought about an upgrade. Then some audiophile "friend" came along and ruined me and my wallet:-) I still have the 1B's and they still sound g... 
Accuphase DP75v Vs. Meridian 808.2
Interesting enthusiasm for the 808.2. I have it for demo in my system for 3 weeks. It's a nice player, but my setup was meaningfully better, and I have heard better digital on systems based on EMM labs and playback designs. 
What material best for a custom amp stand
Will maple support that amount of weight? 
Any better DAC then dCS Scarlatti?
I would find any info on these high end DAC's useful. I have yet to find one that I think sounds better than the Boulder 2020. I'm sure that one may exist that would suit my tastes even more. I've had the EMM CDSA and the Meridian 808.1 in my syst... 
Meridian 808.2 CD Player......
I had the meridian player in my system for 2 or 3 weeks. It is a nice player, but I failed to see what all the hoopla was about. I have a MBL transport connected to a Boulder 2020 DAC and the comparison was not close. Granted these components are ... 
Speakers with Lamm ML2.1
Hi Man,Many well known audio folks have used your exact combination of components with the wilson maxx 2 to good effect. Should be in your price range. I believe 92 db efficient. 
Sub s for Dali Megaline system
Just added a pair of JL 113's to a pair of Wilson Alexandrias in a 22 x 17 x 11 room. They output plenty of bass for that size room. They are fairly small as well so it is easy to place 2 of them. I had a single REL studio III before that. It was ... 
Soulution 710 Amplifier and 720 Preamplifier
Classic jazz: I have heard similar to you that Soulution is similar to dartzeel or Spectral. Fast but not a warm as Boulder. I was interested in Soulution after hearing all the superlatives, and there were some dealers interested in separating me ... 
Soulution 710 Amplifier and 720 Preamplifier
If you want an objective opinion, call Goodwin's high end in Boston. They sell Boulder, Soulution and many others. They will give you an opinion based on experience without the hype. I called them for the same advice you seek. I have Boulder and w...
