| plinius 8100 vs moon i5 Gunbei is correct. The 8200 is 175 wpc. The 8150 is 150 wpc. Sorry for the confusion on my part. | |
| plinius 8100 vs moon i5 The Plinius is more natural sounding, with a better midrange and great dynamics. It also has more power, 150wpc to 60wpc?. You will have more choices when you buy or change seakers. I have owned the Plinius and a Sim W5. For the $$$, the Plinius c... | |
| Krell, Mark Levinson Jeff Rowland I have owned Krell seperates and an integrated. They are dynamic and very impressive with certain music. When they sound right, they sound great. BUT, they can be very harsh, aggressive and bright with classical, especially stings and horns, and a... | |
| Amplification for Maggie MG 1.6Qr s I've owned two Plinius'. I never heard them with the 1.6s, but I think it would definately be worth a listen. The Plinius is an amazing integrated, in the right system. My guess is, matched with the Maggies, great mids, imaging and dissapearing sp... | |
| Amp for Sonus Faber GP? If possible, listen to a Plinius 8200. It is a great integrated. I would stay far away from the Krell for classical music. I owned one. It does a great job with rock, with it's dynamic presentation, but can be very harsh with strings and piano. Th... | |
| Speaker Recommenadations for Cary SLI-80 Kitch29. No, the tuning method is specific to the Heron i. It is not even on the original Heron. There are three possible speaker hookup choices, depending on room size. | |
| Can’t believe anyone I have heard the Arcam cd players. My experience is that the 7SE is better than the 8, and pretty close to the 9. I don't beleive that upgrade would solve your problems. | |
| Speaker Recommenadations for Cary SLI-80 I have the new Heron I's from Meadowlark. The are amazing speakers, made for tubes, although I am using them with a Rowland Concentra II. They are warm, dynamic and completely disapppear. They are fine in a room your size. My room is 13x18, and I ... | |
| Can’t believe anyone Xmore. I think you have a nicely balanced system. If you are not happy with the sound, there are a couple of possibilities. You could try different cables or you might want to consider a different sound altogether. I think to do that, is not neces... | |
| It only took 25 years Around 1970, there was a film released, "Oh Lucky Man". Alan Price of the Animals did the music. There were a couple of great songs on the album. I came across a cd from Germany last month. I couldn't believe it. | |
| Bonnie Koloc I saw Bonnie Koloc around 1970 in a small club in NYC. I had never heard of her. For some reason, it was a concert that stayed with me all these years. | |
| amp for Dynaudio Contour 1.1 The Sim is only 60 watts and I don't believe enough to drive the Dynaudios. I think the Plinius might be an excellent choice. I had an 8200. | |
| Cardas or Harmonic Technology I just sold my two pairs of Pro Silways as I went to an integrated. I did at one time use them with a Plinius. I was not overly impressed with them. I am now using Cardas Golden Reference. I find the GR to be quite a bit more focused, with better ... | |
| Most emotionally involving cables? John 1. Not for the sound? Do you use them to tie someone up? I love my new Concentra, it's gorgeous, but I don't take it to dinner. | |
| I bought a GREAT cd the other day. Sometimes a bit too sweet, but worth checking out also is Allison Krauss. I love her cover of the Beatles "I Will". |
