| Speakers for a small room @ostrey93 Not sure i would call a room that is 11x16x7'10" as small! That is a fairly good size...and has reasonable volume. Nonetheless, I think you are probably on the right track with stand mounts and a couple of REL Subs. Take a look at my sys... | |
| Troubleshooting EAD DSP-7000 - Static/Whirring Sound If you really like your EAD 7000, you might consider buying mine....it is in immaculate condition and is a MK 3 version in Black. I had it on A'gon but withdrew it. ( too many tire kickers asking stupid questions) I have it on US A'mart. Might be ... | |
| MORE Esoteric problems One of the reasons I acquired my Esoteric player is that the transport and laser sled can still be repaired and at a cost that isn't too exorbitant. Before I bought my Esoteric ( you can see it in my member Virtual System) I had listened to a numb... | |
| New Sonus Faber Electa Amator 3...anybody heard these yet? @dsholl1 Very nice. Congratulations. I’m sure you will enjoy your EA3’s. They look to be a great speaker, doesn’t surprise me that you like them better than the GT’s. | |
| New Sonus Faber Electa Amator 3...anybody heard these yet? Agreed, the SF stand mounts typically really work well with tubes. The GH’s and the JA30Mk2’s are an excellent match..I would guess the same would apply to the EA3’s. | |
| New Sonus Faber Electa Amator 3...anybody heard these yet? Sounds like that would be a great match up with the EA3’s. Not sure if the Sugden has enough juice for the new SF’s, that might be something to discuss with your dealer, if you haven’t already. | |
| New Sonus Faber Electa Amator 3...anybody heard these yet? What you report makes me really want to hear these. There really aren’t that many superb stand mount speakers available, certainly at or near that price point. What gear would you be running the EA3’s with? | |
| New Sonus Faber Electa Amator 3...anybody heard these yet? @dsholl1 I will be very interested to hear the new EA3’s. If they can hold candle to my GH’s, I would be surprised, but that would be a great thing...as the GH’s won’t last forever. I will report back if and when I get a chance to hear the EA3’s. | |
| New Sonus Faber Electa Amator 3...anybody heard these yet? @tonykay Completely agree.i have AB’ed my SFGH’s against a number of different stand mounts, from Magico’s to Dynaudios to TAD’s and more....none have come out superior to the GH’s. If you have the upstream gear to work with them, I don’t think ... | |
| MORE Esoteric problems @riaa_awards_collectors_on_facebookYou mention the reason that the K-01x sounds worse to your ears...and yet that reason is exactly why many people would want an Esoteric! The ability to delineate a marginal recording from a superior one! Unfortun... | |
| MORE Esoteric problems Perhaps look at it this way. Your older Esoteric player can still be worked on, there are still parts available for it...and there is a US group that does most of this work. That is a whole LOT more than a lot of other folks can say about their ex... | |
| Esoteric DV-60 I listened to a DV60 today, compared it to a Marantz Sa11S1 and an older DV50. The DV60 was superior in all areas to both of the other players...and by a very wide margin! Here’s the thing of it, it clearly states in the instructions to turn off t... | |
| Looking for my first DAC I have an EAD DSP 7000 Mk3 on the market right now. This DAC is superb, it can decode HDCD and would match your system well. I think that even though it is an older design, it can compete well against even far more expensive DAC’s today. See my A’... | |
| Oppo 105, Oppo 205, or Legacy SACD (Esoteric, Cary CD 306, etc) @stereo5 What makes you think a Esoteric DV60 won't do DSD?? Clearly you have no idea what a Esoteric DV 60 is... | |
| Lyra Kleos or Kleos SL? I own the higher output model. IMO, IF you are unsure about the ability of the phono stage to drive the lower output model, the higher output is definitely the way to go. To that, I believe anyone with a tube phono stage should only consider the ... |
