Need efficient floor-stander for 2a3
Hi all ! Havent heard the Tonians but the Lores do ,in fact , kick some serious ass . Cant even imagine what the pendragons can do . 
Frustrated with the sound of my system
Hi all ! It is very easy to take some large pillows or heavy blankets and put them at the first reflection points, etc...just to see if it helps . Either that or get on the equipment merry-go-round and start spending a bunch of money . When re-rea... 
Help with shopping for a power amp
Hi all ! The Belles A150 is a nice amp , sounds as close to tubes as I have heard from solid state . Can be had for around $500 if you look a bit . 
Need efficient floor-stander for 2a3
Hi all ! The Tekton S-Lore is not efficient enough ,I think it is around 94db . However , the Pendragon would be a good choice . 
Frustrated with the sound of my system

Frustrated with the sound of my system
Hi all ! Sounds to me as you probably should spend some effort treating the room . You can spend a whole lot of money and get no improvement if the room is bad . How do I know this ? Been there done that .
