| Luxman 590AX II Break-In I don’t think the Luxman 590ax is powerful enough to drive those speakers. I know. I have the amp and I’ve tried to drive similar harder to drive speakers. | |
| Dynaudio Heritage + Gold Note IS-1000 Deluxe I have the Dynaudio HS speakers. My pov is they need 200 watts to really open up. I just don’t think it makes sense to drive them with a lower powered amp, even a high current class A doesn’t cut it. I’ve taken the HS out of circulation until I ... | |

| Pontus II + Node 2i - VS - Gold Note DS-10 Plus Do you still have the Buchardt speakers? I see why the s400 mkii speakers have gotten such great reviews. They just make anything they play sound good. They are just incredibly warm and expansive on the bass frequencies. | |
| Pontus II + Node 2i - VS - Gold Note DS-10 Plus I recently purchased the Gold Note DS-10 for a second system. had similar thoughts about combining the streamer and DAC. I am waiting on new speakers to arrive which I believe should be here in a couple of days. Once I’ve gotten things running, I’... | |
| Best tube preamplifier for under $15k Excuse the above test post, above. I have been researching tube line stage preamps for the past month. This thread has been extremely helpful to learn about options. I ultimately pulled the trigger on the LTA preamp based on the positive reviews ... | |
