| Full circle and thinking about speakers mc-You can do a lot of room treatment for $1000.00. GIK has a starter kit for around $600.00. It can be just as impactful as buying new speakers. You also could buy red carpet and a lava lamp, but the smart audiophile would choose room treatment.p... | |
| Full circle and thinking about speakers Start with room treatment. You'll never hear what your speakers/system is capable of. Start with first reflection points. Locate your system on the short wall.Good luck & happy listening! | |
| New speaker suggestion How about open baffle? Pure Audio Project, Spatial Audio. | |
| A system for my college-bound daughter KEF LSX- there was a open box for $999.00 at Music Direct. Just add TT. Kids probably will stream anyway. Mine does. | |
| First Watt SIT-3 preamp pairing advice The MZ2 has more air and transparency. I would agree with zm's characterization of the MZ2, but it still has that tube liquidity. I do think the other 2 choices are good pieces, and I still haven't sold my Supratek Sauvignon . I've been thinking a... | |
| First Watt SIT-3 preamp pairing advice I have the Supratek Sauvignon and a LTA MZ2, I have used both with my Pass XA25. The LTA is the clear winner in this combination. | |
| Pass INT-250 for B&W 800's jeffreyw-There are some folks around here that have alarm bells (just like a firehouse) that go off, every time there is a thread about Nelson Pass. I think Nelson must have stole their girlfriend in high school, either that or they have something... | |
| Why so many angry audiophiles? I'm very fortunate to be able to work from home, during this mess. Don't know what I'd do without some decent music/equipment to listen to, so yes I'm very thankful. It will be interesting how many "pots" will be commenting on the "Black Kettle". | |
| Better Amp for Cornwall IV's... Pass Labs XA25 class A would be more than enough, to make theKlipsch Cornwall’s sing. | |
| Is Carl Bernstein an Audiophile? If you don’t like it, just keep moving. I read/browse many threads that are dumb, like “which sounds better, amps with meters, amps without. | |
| Is Carl Bernstein an Audiophile? I hope you didn’t really mean to say, “Nixon had the decency to resign because of what Bernstein did”. Morally, I would think you’d blame Nixon, for what Nixon did. However, this isn’t what I was hoping to, discuss. I was watching a few videos on ... | |
| Is Carl Bernstein an Audiophile? One of the most famous and admired members of the 4th estate.... I do! dadork! 🎣 | |
| Preamp choices:Short list MicroZOTL preamp. Sells for about 4,500.00. I also have the Supratek Sauvignon and I like the MicroZOTL better. | |
| Confession of a poor power cord pairing for a Pass Labs XA-25 alfau7-First let me say, that I thought the Nu-force was a great little amp for $400-$500. Comparing it to the NAD integrated that I had before, it was eye opening, then when I connected the $99 Silnote power cord, it got even better. If your look... | |
