| I Feel Overwhelmed....Please Help You don't lose money with dealer source gear, IF you love it. Something that you're not going to sell is worth what it's worth. Resale is irrelevant with keepers.That said, experienced audiophiles should feel pretty comfortable with used stuff her... | |
| speakers for classical music Gawdbell said:"Shouldn't all speakers play all music? Although at least B&W/Vienna Acoustics are consistent in that they don't play anything well."Thanks for the BS answer. I'm sure there'll be plenty of jazz, just for you, at RMAF. ;-0Dave | |

| I Feel Overwhelmed....Please Help I think you need to be careful of dealers, but I think you'll find that there are some great ones out there. IF, that's a big "if", you find a good one they can save you lots of searching and speed you toward your goals.Dave | |
| Amp for Dali Hellicon 400 mk2 Well the DALIs are a lot less sensitive and they DO need to break in a couple of hundred hours. Have you broken them in? Can you take them back?I really don't like the bass on the DALIs. It really turns into one-note bass below 40hz. I don't know ... | |
| I Feel Overwhelmed....Please Help I think that cables are a concern for anyone trying to remove harshness, but he should look to used cables here on A'gon.Dave | |

| Amp for Dali Hellicon 400 mk2 Damn, I hate stories about blowing drivers. That really surprises me because I was driving them with amps capable of 1000 watts into 4 ohms, with no problemo in a large, well damped room.When you say "crazy loud" were you sitting there in front of... | |
| I Feel Overwhelmed....Please Help I don't see anything that makes me wretch, so I'll say to let your ears be your guide. Unfortunately you'll be hearing all of these in an unfamiliar system. It's really hard to evaluate CDPs outside of your own system. Amps driving anything other ... |
