Proac Tablette 10
Old post, but can anyone share his/her experience auditioning tablette 10, and/or signature edition? 
Just bought a Marantz PM6006, and it it disappointing
Thanks for sharing your experience.  I bought a 5004 8 years ago to replaceca nad 315bee.  Returned it because of the laid back sound with no dynamics.Ordered the 8004, and toroidal transformer and extra power made all the difference in the world.... 
Analysis plus ova 9‘S vs. Kimber cable 8tc’s.
You already have the best cables - why not outfitting them with tech flex and the best connectors.  It would make a real difference. 
New speakers? No thanks.
And what wine was this? 
A little Patience sometimes pays off! (Kef LS50 content)
 +++1 great advice on the 5T00UP.  Electrically, it is almost like no cable at all.  Fantastic cable, in par with the high-end brands' most expensive ones as they tend to have the same gauge, at a fraction of the cost.

B&W 685's Vs KEF LS50

Well... guess I have to jump in the rabbit hole of speaker cables... lol
How could the belden cables be the problem... Electrically they are almost like no cable at all.  
KEF LS50 or Wharfedale Reva 2 -- which would you buy?
Good choice! 
Looking for ic
What do you consider crap construction soldering? Just curious. I'd say nordost. 
KEF LS50 or Wharfedale Reva 2 -- which would you buy?
I have kept the LS50s for 4-5 months driven by a marantz integrated 8400.  I thought they sounded bigger than they look.  Objectively, I found them even with my Totem Hawks in terms of imaging/soundstaging, detail/transparency/resolution.  I have ... 
Totem Hawks - my impressions
I wonder how the new SKY (tower and bookshelves) compare to the Hawks.. .higher level of transparency?   
Best bookshelf speakers
Not sure what your listening space is, but mine has always allowed a 7ft equilateral triangle and sometimes 9ft in my living room.... Latest arrival in my 7ft triangle is an old pair of totem hawks,  and this is the best compromise i have ever had...
