I don't think they were answered above.- Is time / phase coherence maintained throu... | |
| Speakers for Naim? Epos speakers were designed for Naim. Their tonality offsets Naims weak points - lack of bass and brightish top end. | |

Even a listen to Mackie HR624 active monitors?Shows what active croosovers are capable of. Something to do with not being able to pick your own power amp?I will admit that passive A... | |
| are Red Rose speakers any good? They are okay. Heard the rosebuds a second time and sounded much worse than the first time.. The boomy bass was still there. Boomy to me, although most people seem to like this.But they were bright and fatiguing and a weird leading edge compressio... | |

| Pro or hi-fi amp, which one would you choose? Thanks Sean, I agree on the active speaker vs. passive. | |
| Good, warm, musical, under $500 used monitor 2nd the JM Reynaud or you could try Spendors.If your system is bright may be your electronics too. | |
| Pro or hi-fi amp, which one would you choose? Sean, have you heard some type of a transformer placed between high output impedance amp and speaker. Audio Asylum had a thread on this maybe 2 weeks ago. Looked like a good way to improve damping factor. Any thoughts?I will try to find the thread... |
