| Pontus II + Node 2i - VS - Gold Note DS-10 Plus @m669326 - So I got the Gold Note DS-10 running last night along with the new Buchardt s400 MKii speakers and Luxman 590axii with Revelation Labs Interconnect and LessLoss speaker cables. As with anything, one has to consider system synergy, but... | |
| Pontus II + Node 2i - VS - Gold Note DS-10 Plus @69zoso69 - Thanks for your perspective! I'm on the opposite end of the spectrum, desiring a relaxing, warmer and less detailed presentation. I like my music to be like a good bourbon and intimate conversation - warm and relaxing. The Luxman is ... | |
| Pontus II + Node 2i - VS - Gold Note DS-10 Plus @69zoso69 I just received speakers for my second system yesterday. I purchased Buchardt S400 MKii speakers driven by a Luxman 590axii integrated amp. As mentioned earlier, I've got the Gold Note DS-10 and Evo power supply too. I'm planning on ... | |
| Feedback QLN Prestige Three Speakers Requested @ronboco - Hi! I'm a newbie, so I have no idea on how I would do that. Might you be able to provide me some general guidelines? What tools would I need? How would I do it? Thanks in advance. | |
| Feedback QLN Prestige Three Speakers Requested @jeffstrick - Hi Jeff - Amazing! If you don't mind me asking, how did you arrive at that combination - Audio Hungary tubes and QLN Prestige Three? What are your impressions of the combination? And what sources and cables might you be using? Also... | |
| Feedback QLN Prestige Three Speakers Requested @char2 - Appreciate the feedback! I plan on driving them with a 100 watt Tube Amp (Qualiton/Audio Hungary). That said, I bet they'd sound great with a higher powered SS amp. Good to hear you and your audio buddies appreciate the QLN Prestige Three... | |
| Feedback QLN Prestige Three Speakers Requested @wjob - I really appreciate your perspective on this! How would you describe the sound of the QLN Prestige Three? Especially in light of your intimate familiarity of the Dynaudio Heritage Specials? I really like the Dynaudio Heritage Specials, ... | |
| Feedback QLN Prestige Three Speakers Requested @grislybutter - I have a complex relationship with my Dynaudio Heritage Specials. I sometimes go listen to other speakers at various dealers as I seek to hear and understand how different loud speaker manufacturers approach the craft. When I come ... | |
| Feedback QLN Prestige Three Speakers Requested Thanks again, everyone. I appreciate the feedback. @metaldetektor - I’m a little apprehensive they’ll be too passive. I’ve heard a few speakers that just felt dull and lifeless. I certainly wouldn’t be happy if the Prestige Three ended up in that... | |
| Feedback QLN Prestige Three Speakers Requested @soix - Great question. I realize it certainly doesn't appear logical. I'm planning on using the Linear Tube Audio also as a headphone amp in the living room when I'm not speaking or hanging out with my wife, but where she might be reading in the... | |
| Feedback QLN Prestige Three Speakers Requested @metaldetektor - Thanks for your reply! Have you heard them before? Do you feel they would be able to play/present lots of different types of music well? I take it the speaker might be too laid back for your own personal tastes? My wife is som... | |
| Warm, Lush Laid-Back Smaller Floor Standers? Thanks for everyone's contributions! In terms of budget, I'd consider spending up to $8K at this moment in time and would definitely consider the used market for speakers. I am, though, on the West Coast and unable to pursue those Joseph Audio s... |
