These seem a bit pricey $$$ I watched the video and was also shocked at the price tag for them. Based on his breakdown of their sound, I’ll stick with my Cornwall IV’s , or my Goldenear Triton 5’s. Steve is one of my favorite reviewers out there. I rarely miss one of his vids. | |
Thoughts on choosing an amplifier I definitely recommend the A21+. I have the A21 and love it. I’m using a Parasound P5 preamp which is ok and I too am thinking about a Tube Preamp.i agree you should choose your speakers first. The Parasound will drive pretty much anything you’d b... | |

Focal Aria 948, Revel F208, Tekton Double Impact I was I looking at the Focals and also the Double Impacts for my next set of speakers and I ended up buying Klipsch Cornwall IV’s. They are not fatiguing to me at all and sound great at low volumes. It feels like the musicians are playing right in... | |
Best speakers out there for Midrange and Highs Have you auditioned anything from the Goldenear Line? I have Triton 5’s and I too use to JLAudio Subs, the Dominion D108’s. Their tweeter is really spectacular. Here’s the specs on the 5’s which is just one level up from their entry model.https://... | |
What’s the most badass $2k amp I can get? I too recommend the Parasound A-21. I have the A-21/P5 combo and it’s a very nice Amp for the money. I doubt you’d be disappointed.https://youtu.be/D6_6hNuOuJc | |

Top vintage receivers vs. modern high-end equipment I have one of those “inferior” 80 series Pioneer Receivers, a SX-1080. It sounds pretty damn good to me. every Pioneer fan I know does prefer the sound of the 50 series though. I have not heard one myself. I also know that 80 series Receivers do h... | |
I am Looking for That Elusive 3 Dimensional Room Filling Soundstage I know you were hoping for something that wasn’t a floor standing model, but the OHM 1000 sounds perfect for what you are searching for and are designed to do exactly what you described 360 degree omnidirectional sound.

Popular new/used SS stereo power amps under $2500? Well, mplstereo, I’m a rather new kid on the block too when it comes to modern Hi end Stereo gear. But I can vouch for the Parasound Halo A21 or A23. Like you, I searched every review I could find, scoured these and other discussion boards to read... | |
