Add 2/3 channel Amp to Arcam AVR 750 Receiver for better 2 channel sound?
Run the Arcam preouts to 3 Schiit Tyr monoblocks. https://www.schiit.com/products/tyr.    
Seeking to Upgrade Subwoofer from SVS SB2000
My upgrade sub budget for 2 subs are $1000.00 total. The Martin Logan is adjusted properly and I find the bass a bit weak. The current 2 subs help, but I would like to do better. Budget is too weak for a sub upgrade. You can’t do any better tha... 
Receiver Too Weak?
On second thought, yamaha receivers do offer some features like dialog level, dialog lift (if your center channel has suboptimal placement), etc after you get into their Aventage line. Hence, the minimum you should get is the Yamaha RX-A4A Aventag... 
Receiver Too Weak?
Your receiver is low end and does not come with pre-outs for the fronts/center so you can run them to a powerful external amplifier.   What is your budget? Get a processor with pre-outs (price can go up quickly). Here is some affordable stuff ... 
Sub suggestions please
Walnut is important in this case JBL HDI-1200p, satin walnut is one of the finishes, is a 3000 dollar sub. It appears to be currently on what i think is a closeout sale for 1200...might as well hop on it. I certainly wouldn’t pay 3000 for it. T... 
Questioning Interest In MoFi Speakers
All their R&D costs was literally one speaker savant guy on the payroll. They've already made their money several folds. A discount for the weak wallets at this time is the hifi-humanitarian thing to do.  
Wilson Alexia 2 lacking some bass
I’m wondering if the amps may not be the ideal match or if further adjustments to the speaker placement could help resolve this. You could keep changing amps and placement until blue in the face or.....the simpler solution is to get a pair of s... 
Kef Blade to Blade meta?
@deep_333 which B&W model did you compare them with? 801D4, the lack of tonal balance is a no-go for me..it could appeal to guys who’re into the V-curvy thing perceptively however. I am not accusing it of a hot tweeter. It did have a hint ... 
Wilson Sasha 1 vs Sasha 2.... What songs best convey tweeter differences?
I’v read the titanium "can be hot", "tiresome", "shrilly". The soft dome to be "better", "tamed" by comparison. Above mentioned is a very simplistic way to look at a tweeter. They can also do the opposite depending on how the speaker got design... 
Kef Blade to Blade meta?
I have heard the original Reference 5, Reference 5 meta and the Blade on different occasions with different equipment, never got to hear the Blade Meta. You are not going to get too much of a sonic upgrade once you get past this price bracket just... 
Ken Fritz's $1M Dream System update
Chris Rock (or Dave Chapelle, one of those guys) made a joke once that only women, children and dogs are loved "unconditionally" in this world. Such a thing is not true for men, it's just transactional for the most part. But, you could imagine th... 
Schiit Yggdrasil DAC, why did they change it ?
I sold the Yggdrasil twice hoping for something better before i bought it again for the 3rd time. I have the OG and it is end game for my specific tastes, especially when i run DHertz MasterClass files through it. I have audited everything from B... 
!!! Harbeth M30.2 Xd,NOT Just Pipe & Slippers Speakers!!!
On the right song, drums are absolutely visceral..Take the Metallica song "Sad But True"..The closely miked drums literally try to cave your chest in while the screaming guitars try to rip your throat out!! LOL, who knew Harbethany was such a m... 
Ken Fritz's $1M Dream System update
Does anybody really believe a Washington Post Article? To me that’s the amazing story here. I just recently unsubscribed from Washington PooPoost. That Bezo baldiluscious locks bubba’s too ugly (bobigly)....and I kept seeing the ghastly when I ... 
Ken Fritz's $1M Dream System update
I've run Into Ken a couple of times, late 90s/ early 2000s. He was indeed a tad eccentric, but, so are loads of guys in audiophilia. For those unaware, he was a big proponent of multichannel audio. I never heard his end game rig in that large spa...
