| Best multi channel amp and processor good for 2 channel listening. Sorry maguiar, I haven't looked at this thread in a while.That's a really tough question and I'm not sure there's any consensus on an answer. In my experience I would say it depends on weather we're talking about 2-CH or HT.For 2 Channel I think t... | |
| AudioControl receiver vs separates I haven't heard this comparison directly, but I would doubt the AaudioControl AVR9 could sound better or even the same as the AVM60 plus Savoy. The Savoy should be a better amp than what's in the AVR9 and the Anthem AVM60 should be at least as goo... | |
| Best multi channel amp and processor good for 2 channel listening. I just saw audiotroy's post. Looks like the Arcam and AC units are not the same. Audiotroy what do you think of the receivers made by Arcam and AC? For example are the AVR850 and AVR550 a good solution for maguiar? Are they different from the Audi... | |
| Best multi channel amp and processor good for 2 channel listening. Maguiar, I'm glad to see that you're getting to listen to a bunch of things. That's always the best way. I think the realization you had about splitting the system makes a lot of sense. In my experience that's the best way to get what you want.For... | |
| Best multi channel amp and processor good for 2 channel listening. Maguiar, you asked for opinions so here’s my two cents. When I first read this thread in Jan I didn’t respond because I thought it was so off track. The concept of using two channels of a 7.1 processor/amp as a second zone to run high quality audi... | |
| What's your speaker IQ, and the best speaker? Maggie 3.6R, Wilson WP 6, Wilson WP 7*, Kharma 3.2RMe, Kharma Midi Ceramique*, Kharma Midi Exqusite, Von Schweikert VR4jr, Von Schweikert DB99, Zu Cable Druid, Dali Megaline, Pipedreams 15*, Vandersteen 5A*, Von Schweikert VR9*, Audio Note AN-E SE... | |
| SET AMP TO MATCH SPEAKERS I would suggest choosing your tube well also. I personally like the sound of 45 or 2a3 tubes better than 300b or other triodes. Many will disagree, so try and listen to both. You are lucky to have 104db because you can use lower power. Agreed, Aud... | |
| Best spot for my rack. I assume you are asking just from a sonic point of view. Also, I assume the quality of power is the same in all parts of the room. In this case you just have cable length and isolation to worry about. Best cable length is between the speakers, but... | |
| SACD player recommendations? One choice could be the Denon 3910...you could start with he stock unit and get mods done as you wanted to upgrade. Apparently, the APL or Exemplar modded units are supposed to compete with the best SACD players out there... | |
| OTL or SET? Differences? I owned both the Lamm ML2 (SET) and the Tenor 75wi (OTL) for a while. I compared the amps with many speakers I had ranging from Kharma to Von Schweikert to Horns to Druids. I found the Tenors to be more sensitive to impedance and the Lamms more se... | |
| Anyone compared Weiss Medea/Janson to EMM? Take a look at this thread....we will post our opinions after the comparison...if you are near NYC, send me an email....http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?ddgtl&1126707256&read&keyw&zzemm+weiss | |
| Best speakers 2,500 can buy. Zu Druid | |
| anyone heard zu definition speakers? 213cobra - Do you think the Definitions are better than the Druids or just different. The limited show listening I had showed them to be different in sound. The Druid seemed to have that single driver magic that made music sound seamless and coher... | |
| anyone heard zu definition speakers? Ton1313 thanks for the info, I just got back from hearing them in PA. The Definitions were first with SS amps and they played a live drum solo from a Rush album. Really incredible dynamics. We played some other music with female vocals to orchestr... | |
| anyone heard zu definition speakers? I have not heard the Zu Definition speakers, but am equally intrigued. I think the design concept is great. Another speaker I would recommend is the Von Schweikert DB99. It also has a powered bass section and fits within your price range. It is ve... |
