| Tannoy Turnberry vs Fyne 502SP? For me, the ideal setup has both. Never heard a solid or tube replacement for each format, not to say it doesn't exist. For tubes, I'd go 75WPC plus IMO. | |
| millercarbon I've been on and off this site for nearly 2 decades and I miss some degree of banter. The ones I'd rather see go are the ones that own something that's "absolutely the best there is" and they get up and scream into their bullhorn for months and mo... | |
| Is there a ceiling limit on what you are willing to pay for an audio component? What is you were introduced to an $8K speaker that you really liked or a $4K amp that made your $5K speakers really shine? I can see having a budget as important but some might save longer or work harder for something they like better. I guess I'm... | |
| Tannoy Turnberry vs Fyne 502SP? I have the 501SP with the Luxman 550AXII 20WPC class A but 95WPC A/B (so I've been told by the importer) always suspected these had more watts. It drives them really well. I had a 30WPC tube amp and thought that was enough until I hooked up the Lu... | |
| Subwoofers: add a JL Audio or switch to 2 Rythmic subs? @ozzy point/good question that should be examined. Don’t just go with your thoughts bobbydd. Listen to these bass hounds!!! | |
| McIntosh to Luxman? Painful | |
| McIntosh to Luxman? @decathalon1991 I love the accuphase gear. I think Luxman specs in a similar way. Would you agree? | |
| The best speaker cables you’ve had Full Nordost Frey 2 loom, conditioning too. Had more upper end Nordost in the system but didn't own them. Incredible. | |
| McIntosh to Luxman? @jjss49 all the lower powered Luxman units are spec’d class A but go to 95 to 150 plus in A/B. At least the little integrated amps they sold. I know for a while they did the yellow and blue meters. Are any of the blue meters class A? | |
| Top two most important sound qualities Tonality and clarity. Next I'd say vivid while letting your shoulders release and relax. | |
| McIntosh to Luxman? I've owned a few Luxman and McIntosh amps too. I prefer the Luxman Class A sound to the other class A/B from both companies. If I liked the A/B I'd have to compare them again. I grew up with McIntosh amps in the house and love the old tone and t... | |
| Speaker recommendations :-) Verity Audio. | |
| Wharfedale Linton Heritage vs... My assumption might not be correct that they are full of plasic and made in China. | |
| Subwoofer - thoughts on Rythmic F12 Of the ones I've tried here I'd say Rythmik. | |
