| Help With Small Room Speaker Decisions. Thanks for the suggestions! I ended up ordering a pair of both M30.2 XD and P3esr XD. I’m kind of broke after the purchase so the P3s will have to convince me they’re the ones without subs involved. Couldn’t resist having all three of the sm... | |
| Help With Small Room Speaker Decisions. If I’m not mistaken the SVS doesn’t allow actually DSP in the sense you can not tweak the frequency response. That considered I lean towards Rel because I get the impression they may have a bit better tone. Also no sub out on my Primaluna and Rel ... | |
| How much power do I really need for Totem Tribe Tower? LFD NCSE II, Sugden ANV-50 or? Also just to throw it out there I’d stay away from more neutral amps with Totem in general. When I switched from Bryston to McIntosh my enjoyment went up substantially. The catch with Totems from my experience is prominent upper mids and treble. I... | |
| How much power do I really need for Totem Tribe Tower? LFD NCSE II, Sugden ANV-50 or? As a Totem user for over 10 years I have to chime in here. I have used Rainmakers, Forest, and Arros, still have the Rainmakers and Arros. For the majority of that time I have used them with high power solid state. First an original Bryston 4b, t... | |
| Tube Integrated Under 1,500 So I’ve had the Dialogue One up and running for a few days now and early impressions are great. It’s honestly making me think about selling my Dialogue Premium seperates. Although it will go into another system eventually I’ve initially installed ... | |
| Tube Integrated Under 1,500 So I pulled the trigger on a Primaluna Dialogue One. It is set to arrive later this week. I expect I’ll be pretty smitten with it but will know for sure soon. It is an older design than my Dialogue Premium amp and pre so maybe the sound will vary ... | |
| Tube Integrated Under 1,500 So I misspoke and made up a new model apparently. The speakers are actually Totem Rainmakers. the Pathos is an amp I’ve always been curious about myself. Right now I think I want a full tube amp but I could be wrong overlooking the Pathos. Al... | |
| High Efficiency Options? Thanks for all the input. I am starting to check out Omega speakers, and so far I like what I see. Far as how low of power, I’m really not sure. I don’t have an amp in mind at this point but probably a set amp of some sort. You guys are probably... | |
| Quad Of Tubes vs Two Matched Paira? My amp is a Primaluna, so it has the auto bias feature. | |
| Help With DSP Options Pretty into my dac right now. I’m sure some day I will be inclined to upgrade, but right now I can’t imagine with my economic status finding a better value in a dac. I have no doubt such a dac exist, but me finding it and paying what it takes to g... | |
| Help With DSP Options Your correct, just interested for the room correction not any crossover features. | |
| Help With DSP Options The reason I’m looking for usb out is because my dac has a reclocker option that only applies to the usb input. A pc isn’t really an option I am open to. I don’t have a pc to use for this purpose. I also don’t really have a good place to put a pc... | |
| Question about Rotel RA-1520 pre out I use to use a Rotel RA-1520 myself. I did just as you are thinking about and used it as preamp into a Bryston 4bsst2. In my experience it is a better integrated than it was a preamp. Used only as a preamp I found the sound very bright and aggress... | |
| Power Cable Suggestions Needed Lots of good suggestions, keep em coming, and thanks. My speakers are Harbeth c7es3 xd. I have played with positioning as much as I can. I don’t have them sitting on anything special though. Just the wood stands I built for them. I have been t... | |
| Primaluna? I ended up purchasing a Primaluna Dialogue Premium preamp and power amp. It’s been an interesting experience so far with my Harbeth C7es3 xd speakers. It’s been both very satisfying and also a bit frustrating. Really everything other than the bass... |
