| Zu Druid MK IVs vs. Essences I'm thinking of buying a pair of Soul originals for my kids room. Found a high quality tube integrated at the dump swap shop.Only thing that concerns me is the lack of grills. I assume the drivers are really rugged and these are sold to folks with... | |
| solid state vs tubes--with a twist What publication or society do you review for? | |
| Magico Q3's at Goodwin's High End I know the M5 very well. Is the Q3 better than the M5? The reviewer seems like he can't stand up straight after listening. | |
| Ohm Walsh 2000 vs MMG vs Vandersteen 2ce Sig? I remember my dad and I doing an old ohm vs bose shootout years ago. I think the ohms were from crutchfield and the bose from a department store. Are these the same brands or have they come a long way since the 90's? | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? The 901's are like two big audiophile buttcheeks. | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Verity, Magico, Vandersteen. Maybe they are not from K-Mart but whatever... | |
| Luxman SQ N100 fuse Try the importer. He will know better than anyone.http://www.onahighernote.com/luxman/ | |
| Tube Options with Verity Tamino Not much. | |
| Must Hear Speakers in $10K range Avalon, Verity, Vandersteen, Rockport, Magico are my rec's to look at. Rockport's are awesome, not well known, and once in a while have a low end model come up under 10k. | |

| Noice from fan in Audio Research VT 100 MK III Fans are easy to remove and clean or replace. I've done it with ARC amps and with my composting toilet fan several times.Did you try to vacuum it or clean it with a Q-tip for dust binding up the blades? | |
| modest towers with high WAF for living room? Devore Super 8 is a nicely made speaker. My wife liked the looks of those over most I've owned. Thankfully she understands that I enjoy this hobby and doesn't try to control my decisions. | |
| Which speakers... B&W 802D or Vandersteen 5A's? I've yet to hear a B&W sound better than a Vandersteen but that is my taste. Why these two? If I were you I would list all of your preferences and priorities in a speaker and have the this vast vault of vernacular but sometimes venomous victim... | |
| Best tube integrated with Merlin TSM-MMI? Mastersound is top notch. Very underrated OR unknown, however the el34 for sale has gone for as low as $1500. Good used deal at maybe $1800. Haven't heard any below the 300 B or monos but I don't think they would dumb down any model. | |
| Avalon Eidolon or Parsifal Encore Well, we're waiting!Judge SmailsCaddyshack |
