| Anything like an Altec Model 19 How about a Valencia? | |
| Amplifier for Altec Valencia speakers I run Valencia 846A's (16 ohm) with Shindo Aurieges linestage and Cortese amplifier. The combination is magical. Make the effort to hear Valencias with Shindo equipment. I think you will be astounded how good these speakers can sound when paired w... | |
| Shindo Monbrison better a RedWine Isabella? The Monbrison's output impedance is 5k. I think you are mistaken about it being able to drive anything.All of the Shindo preamps higher up than the Monbrison in the line-up do have low output imdedances that can essentially drive any amps because ... | |
| What monitors sound OK on a bookshelf? Joseph Audio Rm7si's | |
| Best Pre/Amp or Integrated for Zu Essence Used Canary CA-306 would, I imagine sound awesome with the Zu's. 24wpc of 300B push/pull power.I have Canary 339's and they sound unbelievable driving a pair of Tekton Uruz speakers which are VERY similar in design to the Zu's. | |
| new speaker for shindo amps - 70 watts Call Jonathan Halpern, the Shindo distributor.He'll know better than anyone. | |
| Auditorium 23 SoloVox... No need to wait. Just hunt down a decent pair of Altec Valencia 846A's and be done with it. Shouldn't run you more than $1500 and you will have a perfect pair of speakers to mate with your Air Tight or any Shindo amp if you get one down the line.I... | |
| Which 300B SET for SF Guarneri Homage? I second one of the earlier posters - Canary CA-339 - 50 watts of push-pull 300B power. Everything you like about 300B's but with real world power.Built like a tank and weighing nearly the same.Available for reasonable amount used on Audiogon fair... | |

| Amp for Coincident Super Eclipse Find a used Canary amplifier that uses 300B's in push pull like a CA-306.I believe Coincident used to feel very strongly about the Canary amplifiers believing they were a very simpatico pairing with their speakers. | |
| Volex cables - No longer belden??? I believe he means that he is not a believer in cables that cost hundreds or thousands of dollars making huge differences.The cable he is referring to is probably all of $25 and worth every penny, so let's not get hung up on literalism and answer ... | |
| Small-ish Speakers That Come Alive At Low Volume Second the Triangle recommendation.I have Comete ES's in bedroom system for this exact purpose - clear low-level listening. The front-porting also helps a lot with room placement. | |
| who has experience with Joseph Audio? I own and love the Rm25si MkII's for over seven years.Tremendous value for $$$$. Plays everything well. Huge sweet spot.There's a reason you don't see much used on A'gon.They just sound right. |
