| Step me up from Paradigm Studio 20 v4 bookshelf, seriously. jbmac, I've thinking about your statement that the S6's were too big for your room. Obviously, you have details that I don't. But I'll still throw this out there - I got curious, and made some measurements. My Studio 10's on the J29 stands have a ... | |
| Step me up from Paradigm Studio 20 v4 bookshelf, seriously. I don't think they were v3's, but a pair sold a few months ago on eBay for $1100 that were rosewood, seller described them as 'satin oak'. Even though you can't hear 'pretty', they looked amazing. | |
| Step me up from Paradigm Studio 20 v4 bookshelf, seriously. jbmac, I'd keep an eye on eBay for S2's, they pop up somewhat regularly. The J29 stands also show up from time to time, around $250, give or take. They're great. | |
| Step me up from Paradigm Studio 20 v4 bookshelf, seriously. There's a nice looking pair of S6's currently listed, above your budget, but worth considering, to me. I owned the Studio 10's, which I thought were very good, went to the S6's, love them. Of course, then it was time to upgrade the amp, so there's... | |
| Mo-fi Ultradeck owners - popping noise from speaker upon power off Never noticed that with mine. Then again I always turn the volume down to a low level at the end of the record. Love the TT, my only complaint is the cheesy plastic bumpers that continually fall off the dustcover. | |
| Pro Ject Debut Carbon improvement possibilities Understood. It's not like there's only one correct answer. | |
| Pro Ject Debut Carbon improvement possibilities dprincipato, I got back into vinyl several years back with that same Project Debut Carbon, super turntable for the money. When I decided to upgrade about a 18 months ago, I purchased the new MoFi Ultradeck with the pre-installed MasterTracker cart... | |

| Pass Labs int 60 vs. Luxman 590 uX ii 520W into 8ohm 830W into 4ohm 1210W into 2ohmCheers George That would be a killer amp for my near-field listening set-up, George. In all seriousness, I've had nearly zero exposure to high-end equipment. It intrigues me, but it's also beyond real... | |
| Purchase breaks well within 30 days You're a lawyer, and asking this question? It's used merchandise, an "as is" sale, unless specifically stated otherwise. The idea that the seller should offer a remedy better even than the manufacturer is absurd. Every unfortunate thing that happ... | |
| Pass Labs int 60 vs. Luxman 590 uX ii Thanks, Erik, I appreciate it. I assume the flip side of that is that some amps do well, i.e. double their power when the impedance is halved, others fall short. I don’t begin to understand enough about amplifier design to know the whys and why no... | |
| Pass Labs int 60 vs. Luxman 590 uX ii Can you elaborate on your statement regarding the mid-bass, Erik. I'm not sharp enough to know what you're getting at. Maybe related, maybe not, but one of my first impressions with my amp was how well it took control of the bass. Admittedly, it w... | |
| Pass Labs int 60 vs. Luxman 590 uX ii The Luxman L-590 isn't low powered. The 30watts is presumably the Class A rating, the amp will produce 90watts/channel into 8 ohms, according to a couple of reviews where it was actually measured. Nearly doubles that into 4 ohms. | |
| Pass Labs int 60 vs. Luxman 590 uX ii Do your own research on this, but I believe Music Direct has a pretty liberal return policy. That being said, I bought my L-590AX without having heard one. Zero regrets, it's amazing. |
