Verity Fidelio, Alon Lotus Elite & Merlin VSM-M?
Lotus Elite Signatures are some of the finest sound I have ever heard. I agree with the other info provided on your other two choices.Happy Listening. 
Feedback/Ideas for New Magazine?
Bound for Sound is a mag that I read that I feel is somewhat true to the point and no advertising. Your idea is OK but you will not make a living at it and getting in equipment is difficult unless you have connections. I personally know many of th... 
hydra vs p-600
Try the Exact Power unit, I preferred it over all the others I have heard. If you want a good deal on one, I have a connection.Happy Listening. 
It's No Fun Being a Guru Anymore
Funny, I have found the same sound at dealers with all the equipment in the world to make a system sound musical at the least. I recently heard a new speaker line made by a very well known cable manufacturer and the guy who set up the audition for... 
Pass Labs X350 versus Plinius SA250IV
I vote for the Pass simply becauce of the company and what they do for their customers. 
Pass X-series & Talon users, cable help please
The Cardas are great wires for the Ravens. I have a reviewer friend who just reviewed the Ravens with those wires and power cords, he also likes the Analysis Plus Oval 9s (I think they are not the top of the line cables by AP).Hope this helps and ... 
Vandersteen 3A,, Revel F30, or Magnepan 3.6
I agree that the Maggies need juice. I heard the F-50s and thought that the mid range was poor sounding, but it was probably do to the system and set up, although I still think they should have sounded better. I would think that the Vandy 3As woul... 
Need suggestions for a new amp 200Wpc
The Sim Audio W-5 is a very nice amp for the used prices as is the Pass X-250. The Sim is a very fast amp with a nice balanced sound, the Pass has a slightly different sound maybe a little more romantic. If you can find a good deal on an Edge amp ... 
Rate these on order of importance:
The room is the biggest influence on your sound period. Do not be folled tinto thinking that the room isn't. It can make up 70-80% of yor sound. Just try one of the room correction devices and you will hear the differences. After the room the soun... 
Any WARM, MUSICAL speakers out there?
Dear Bigpowerballs, bigkidz here,I have listened to over thirty speakers in the past three months. First of all nothing sounds like the Cremona mid range and I mean nothing. I fell in love with them after the first note, but I also listen rock so ... 
Audio Physic Virgo II vs Tempo III
I did hear some differences between the Virgo III & II but for the used prices of the IIs, just buy them. They only really do certain types of music well but what they do is simply great.Happy Listening. 
Anyone heard Pass X2.5 preamp?
Stehno,Yes I did receive the BFS with Marty's reviews. Fuuny but he does not like the LC-2 onthe Pass Labs X-250 which I own? I guess I will have to try another cord to see if I hear a difference. The 10-20% is very system dependent and probably n... 
Anyone heard Pass X2.5 preamp?
10-20 % difference in the X2.5 compared to the X-1. There already was a thread on this a few weeks back. It also depends on the rest of your system. The Pass is very natural and neutral sounding so you will not get a tube mid range sound. They are... 
Best CD: Cary 308, Musical Fidelity A3, Arcam CD92
Sorry but there is no best of anything just voiced differently. You need to describe the sound you are looking for. Every componenet has their strengths and weaknesses, what is right for you may not be right for someone else. If you can describe t...
