| Moving up the Reynaud line, opinions please... Now Joe, haven't you heard of the known natural progression in the great speaker hunt? It's Spendor, Harbeth, then Audio Note? (you can also sidestep a bit with Reynaud, and now Kudos)At your price range, Harbeth C-7's or new Kudos X2's would be g... | |
| Well Tempered Amadeus So Samtse, did you finally get things sorted? | |
| Modern Shahinian Obelisk I'd say because once some people own them they dont' want anything else.:)All the models have been using metal for a long time now. The newest obs, the twos, have better cabinets and bracing, different drivers. For those that like Shahinians they ... | |
| New Kudos X2's defy odds? Please, please do....thanks! | |
| Best sound in old late 70s early 80s receivers Yes to most of the above, I fondly remember the Kenwoods, Yamahas, and Tandbergs. A repair shop close to me has some out for sale, and boy, they are still a thing of beauty. Takes me back! thanks for the thread. | |
| New Kudos X2's defy odds? Yes, could be a british only thing. Hopefully only temporarily, I know there's a dealer in Austin- Whetstone. Good press coming from this past weekend from the Bristol show from across the pond. | |
| Speakers for 3K ...the Devores are too good.... | |
| Speakers for 3K Hi, not to hijack, but Rockadanny, what did Zu do to the setup and toe-in that changed your mind? thanksI think the devores are too nice to be used for a 5 channel system. | |
| Sonic Frontiers Line 2, Heaven or Hell? certainly not heaven for me...if you're looking for a change that wouldn't be my answer, and I agree, it will never sound warm, or I haven't heard it like that. It just doesn't play music to me, no matter what you pair it with. | |
| Well Tempered Amadeus setting question Where are you located? Contact Mike Pranka at Toffco in the USA, or John Burns at Pear Audio in England.I am not an expert at setup, only listening, but I would say yes, the ball should not be touching the cup. Mine is directly in the center. Now,... | |
| New Kudos X-2's anyone? All out Leben seperates(40w amp), and then the new Audio Research digital integrated, which was still breaking in.Naim XS has also been heard with these, and was said to be wonderful. | |
| Luxman L505u . . . why not? Boy, I would love to hear it...hear it all, actually! and then buy what I loved most, and never look back. (hopefully) The small Leben is only 15 watts, which means very efficient speakers and usually a smaller scale system. By the time people con... | |
| New Kudos X-2's anyone? Hi Emil, I have a photo, not sure about posting it. As I mentioned to you earlier on pf, the room is quite large, with enormous ceilings. It can be a real speaker killer. However, these diminuitive X2's worked wonderfully well. I'm still in disbel... | |
| Luxman L505u . . . why not? Thanks for that, Bongo, but, all is not apples and apples.If you're throwing the Luxman 590 into the mix, then you've left a big void of around $5k here between the Leben 600 and it. If you were only comparing the 505 or the Luxman 38SQ, which at ... | |
| Well Tempered Amadeus setting question Who's your dealer? that can be easily addressed...Also, look on Audio Circle, there's a poll/thread going for the WT tables, you'll find help there to your question.or call Toffco, the WT distributor. |
