| Electrocompaniet owners While this thread appears to have met its goal of allowing Bobheinatz to hear about some of our experiences with Electro amps, allow me to shed the last light to set the record straight. None of the importers did anything to mod or max-out the amp... | |
| Electrocompaniet owners All of what has been posted is accurate. While Electro has been around for 30+ years, they have historically been slow and/or uncaring about after sales service. It is both a combination of cultural differences between the US and Norway and the wa... | |
| Anybody have some experience with Bedini amps? Bedini is beginning to transition over to vintage mono blocks. If you want the classic 100/100 call John or Gary and see what they can do for you. | |
| Using a studio monitor for home listening? The feedback had been on target. But, the real qustion is -- What are you seeking to accomplish? Answer this and then decide what to do about speakers. If you want to go pro, then maybe you also want to do the same with your electronics. | |
| Conrad Johnson - MV60 - anyone heard one? I moved over the MV 60 about a year ago after my old Bedini 25/25 decided to show its age. I listened to numerous integateds, as well as separates-- Bryston, Plinius, a used DNA .5, Blue Circle, Rouge and 2-3 other amps. It took me some time to ad... | |
| Thiel or Meadowlark? Captpenny, let's turn this in a different direction, but also let me point out that ML Swift are floor standers. They come with feet that you attach to the bottom, so they do not require stands. Swallow is the same speaker but is a monitor needing... | |
| Thiel or Meadowlark? Can't argue with Islandflyfisher's assessment. Spot on. There is another Meadowlark thread today, a couple up the line. I shared some of my earlier feelings about Kestral and Swift. Swift's front port allows them to go close to the wall with littl... | |
| $2K to spend on used SS linestage, but which? I am at the opposite end of the spectrum. I have taken the passive route with a CJ MV-60 amp and am considering going back to a preamp, if I can find one that meets my requirement. I have been a strong proponent of passive devices, possibly to the... | |
| Dynaudio Contours with Conrad Johnson 2500a Which model Contours? | |
| Choice of Amps How old is the Electro? Some of the earlier AW 100's (10+ years had problems as the boards were hand soldered). It is a wonderful sounding amp. An older AW 60 would sound even better. But for the 1K you want to spend, I would go after a DNA.5 and ... | |
| Speakers to pair with Arcam A65 plus under $600? Meadowlark Kestrels or Verios. Dynaudio 42s (new or used)or 52s (probably used). Maybe (in your price range) a pair of used Dynaudio Contour 1.3. | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sig vs. Meadowlark Osprey Sunnyjim-- I think the thread has done what many do, get people talking and thinking. No one has gotten rude and this is excellent. Thank you everyone! It is hard to draw a lot of attention to a thread like this because it is impossible to compare... | |
| Anybody have some experience with Bedini amps? I had a pair of 25/25s for almost 18 years and I loved them. Never a problem. I replaced them about a year ago due to old age, some transformer hum and my desire for something new. That Bedini magic is hard to replace. The 45/45 was a good amp, bu... | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sig vs. Meadowlark Osprey Follow up on Ospreys: After talking with Pat, his opinion, and one that will be confirmed in a forthcoming review, is that Osprey out performs Shearwater in almost every aspect. More dynamic. More bass extension. More believable. However, it is a ... | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sig vs. Meadowlark Osprey I find this thread interesting as Meadowlark only shipped their first pair of Ospreys 3 days ago to a dealer in Atlanta and they should arrive today 11.27. If anyone has heard them, then they clearly are not burned in yet. As for their sound, you ... |
