| Seeking speakers under $3K for 10x12 ft room and driven by 20wpc tube amp Lot's of the audio reviewed guys speak highly of the Buchardt's, but I'd put $100 on the Harbeth's. I've owned the C7 and they are great speakers. | |
| Any regrets in selling gear? I can't get rid of tubes. I just stop listening over time. Need an 18inch sub. | |
| Current or Previous Harbeth Owners… I recently sold a pair of Harbeth C7ES3XD speakers, the latest model, and they left a strong impression. Having owned more than 20 pairs of speakers, I can confidently say these stand out. They achieve a remarkable balance in the mid/upper frequen... | |
| Thoughts: Mofi Sourcepoint 888 vs Fyne Audio 501sp? I owned the 501SP for about 8 months. I like to try different brands and this pair came up locally at a price I found reasonable. I paid around $3300, met seller 1/2 way. I have mixed feelings about them but for the price I ended up selling them ... | |
| Seeking speakers under $3K for 10x12 ft room and driven by 20wpc tube amp @gareents Looks like part of his criteria is under $3000. I don’t think I’ve ever seen any of your recs under $3K used. Good choices you have though. | |
| Seeking speakers under $3K for 10x12 ft room and driven by 20wpc tube amp I've been through all sorts of speakers from B&W to Verity. 20 years ago I bought a pair of Devore Super 8's and loved them. Kept them a year and went through the line, moved to Verity, Harbeth etc. back and forth, Daedalus, etc... I recently... | |
| DeVore O/93 or PureAudioProject Duet15 for a First Watt SIT-3? No matter how efficient the speaker, there will will always be the struggle between high power authority and being king of your domain, versus low power beauty and finesse. Go with the 96 (end game) versus 93 (more affordable) if you can. Try high... | |
| Full range stand mounted speakers If you want a sub with tweeters in it try the Gershman Studio 2 the bass is unlike any other monitor I've owned but the mids are needing be fleshed out more. Now I only had a 150 wpc Coda hooked up to them and this thing barely drove them (as good... | |
| McIntosh purchased by Bose...NOT an April Fool's joke. No mids on your rack must be a Mc. This is a match made in heaven. I thought Clarion owned McIntosh in the 90 and so did a handful of other companies after. In the 80’s I owned the Bose 401, they were corner placed and probably better than the w... | |
| DeVore O/93 or PureAudioProject Duet15 for a First Watt SIT-3? I've owned the O/93 and heard the O/96 on many occasions. I agree with fsonicsmith get the 96 if you can. I've heard the same things, one being that the woofer is substantially better designed and compromises had to be made for the 93. Hard to get... | |
| Seeking a Warm 12AX7 Tube for Preamp VTS has the best stock of any tube supplier just need patience. | |
| ???What's The LEAST Expensive "End Game"Amplifier You've Ever Heard??? Supernait3 is an amazing sounding amp | |
| Hegel H120 or H190 Agree with Grisly, the CM1 is a good speaker but rather disproportionate to what you are spending on the amp. If the speakers are staying for the 2 years but the lower priced amp and upgrade it all when the time comes. | |
| When I listen to my system....... For decades I listened to gear, but with my latest spring tweak suspending the back right side of the transformer, and a polished thimble sized bowl ever so succinctly harmonizing that first point of reflection...it's now music to my ears. lol | |
| Thanks to the Moderators Maybe I've just drifted off but this is most boring 2-3 years this site has ever seen. Maybe I' prefer a little entertainment. The spending part comes without sense. |
