Looking for input on Legacy Audio speakers purchase. 15 x 21 isn't tiny by any means. Plus, you have those 611's on tap.I think unless it's absurd, the whole "too big for the room" thing is overblown. Heck, if it's a room in the basement, or carpet and padding over a concrete foundation (like many... | |
Looking for input on Legacy Audio speakers purchase. I recently purchased a c2700 and mc462. It wasn’t my original plan, but I am thrilled with the combo so far. It’s not the old McIntosh sound for sure, Its detailed and yet still smooth and not harsh. Really really good.I am a fan of both legac... | |
New McIntosh DA2 DAC I have had the C2700 with the DA2 Dac for a week now. My previous DAC was the Oppo Sonica, which uses the ESS chipset also. My understanding is the DA2 uses the 9028pro, and the Oppo had the 9038. Which I imagine are close. Implementations are dif... | |

Technics SU-R1000 a new Class-D GaN Technology integrated I would also like to learn more about this integrated, hoping for more reviews, particularly with comparisons to other equipment. A lot makes sense regarding the technology, and for someone like me that streams only for audio, and wants a HT bypa... | |
Choosing new speakers after 20 years Salk song 3 encore | |
What 50wpc or higher amps have a totally different sound from Pass Labs, in a good way? In a good way? Well, that is up to the listener. But if one likes Pass with a particular speaker, it would be difficult to go the opposite way and call it "in a good way" I suspect.But opposite of Pass? (which I consider just on the warm side of n... | |
Holographic, 3D Solid State Amp under $6k @jmarshak Agree, if I didn't own Pass. BAT would be high on my list. My biggest problem with the OP and the Pass comments are that I just don't see any reputable dealer saying "that's just how the XLR plugs are on Pass".Just using any basic logi... | |
Holographic, 3D Solid State Amp under $6k I’m calling bullcrap on the Pass issues. Or, that dealer blows, or if that gear was shipped... it was dropped from a decent height.People may not like Pass gear, and that is up to their ears. But Pass is nothing but responsive and top notch on QC ... | |
Which speakers did you find bright, fatiguing or just disappointing in some way? In my home:Focal (demo), Klipsch Palladium (owned), B+W Diamond Series (demo)In someone else's home:Tekton with the Be upgrade, Wilson with the Focal tweeters (no shocker, however I DO like the Wilsons with the new Soft Dome tweeter)Demoed in mult... | |
SPL: Reference level performance, German build quality, and innovative designs @jaymark That looks like a very compelling piece. I hope you will report back.I really hope someone picks up a Director MK2 and reports back regarding the DAC. | |
Sound and quality of Legacy Speakers @vinylvalet Interesting on the ATC's. That is still a fairly substantial speaker. I liked the 50's at a show, but would likely want a little more low end punch... thinking the 100's would do it.But those ATC actives are so fast and tight, I have... | |
Sound and quality of Legacy Speakers @vinylvalet Those are pretty nice speakers. Actually curious as to why you are selling them. If I didn't have my Salks, I would be taking a hard look at those. Truthfully, a fully active speaker makes a lot of sense to me. (I know those have a... | |
Sound and quality of Legacy Speakers Since you have the subs, and don't mind using them for 2 channel it opens up a host of options.But, I too listen loud and like blues rock.I have Salk SS12's, but those are not available anymore. If you could score some SS8's, 10's, or 12's used..... | |
