| Beyond Boutique Speakers I'm not sure that Wavetouch qualifies, but in case it does:http://www.wavetouchaudio.com/antero.html | |
| Best bookshelf loudspeakers under 10,000 for the pair WaveTouch Antero. Head and shoulders above any others I've heard. I also have a PS Audio DirectStream DAC, and PrimaLuna amp & preamp. I'm totally finished. | |
| Who buy PS AUDIO ? I have a DirectStream DAC and am totally happy with it. I also have a Stellar Gain Cell DAC, employing both the DAC and preamp elements, in a second system, and I'm very satisfied with it as well. I tried a pair of M700 Monoblocks and didn't rea... | |
| Fritz LS 7: Better than WaveTouch Antero? I wish you had! | |
| Fritz LS 7: Better than WaveTouch Antero? Erik, I presume you haven't ever heard the Anteros? | |
| Fritz LS 7: Better than WaveTouch Antero? Erik, I'd only potentially be interested in his top model, which at the moment appears to be the LS 7. | |
| Fritz LS 7: Better than WaveTouch Antero? Thanks. I'd already believed all those points from the reading I've done, which is what makes me wonder about the comparison with my Anteros, which I regard as quite special. | |
| seeking recommendations for a preamp Dynaco made good stuff. I have a rebuilt and upgraded Stereo 120, and I like it a lot. My preamp is a PS Audio Stellar Gain Cell DAC... pretty decent DAC too. | |
| Add an external DAC. Make my Oppo UDP-205 a true top player I have an Oppo UDP-203; I think the only difference between that and the 205 is the DAC. I'm bypassing the built-in DAC by connecting the coax output to a PS Audio DirectStream DAC. I really like the DirectStream; it's very noticeably better th... | |
| Has anyone else auditioned something that really was terrible? A couple things I would characterize as quite bad:* SVS Ultra Bookshelf speakers* The amp section of a Parasound Halo integrated amp - the preamp section was actually very goodNot terrible, but not good:* PS Audio M300 monoblocks | |
| 2 way, which are the best designs? I'll say another good word about Ascend Acoustics Sierra-2. I don't have the EX version, but they're very, very good; the highs are wonderful.But I'll also say (repeating) that the WaveTouch Audio Antero is the best-sounding stand-mount speaker I... | |
| Trivializing AudiogoN...........ie: what I have is the best... In the spirit of sharing experiences, good or bad:I found these to be inferior sounding:* SVS Ultra Bookshelf speakers* Parasound Halo integrated amp (amp section; preamp was good)* PS Audio Stellar M700 monoblocks (thin)I really like the Waveto... | |
| $3000 stand mounted speakers? More than $3k new, but I got a demo pair for $2800 and I love them: Wavetouch Antera. Next would be Ascend Sierra 2 - the newer version if I were buying now. | |
| Albums that you listen to straight through / start to finish whenever you put them on! Why definitely Eagles' Desperado. | |
| Can you tell me why I didn't like the Reference 3a MM's? I have a pair of the MM de capo BEs; they're very good, but I find that I slightly prefer the Wavetouch Antero. I'm talking about in my home, all else being the same, just switching speakers. For watching DVDs, I use a solid state preamp and am... |
