| Good match for Sansui G-5700? How about some Klipsch high efficiency speakers? They are 100db efficient and can be driven with that receiver. | |
| Focal Scala Utopia vs Wilson Sasha? I would have to say that between those two, the Wilson's would probably play louder and cleaner. The Scala's are great at lowish volumes, but they fall apart with aggresive music. The Sasha's have more dynamic range, particularly in the bass with ... | |
| SS balanced preamplifier for Krell FPB 400cx I had a Krell 700cx and the only thing that made it sing was the matching Krell KCT preamp, connected with Cast cables. Try it, they go together like peanut butter and jelly! | |
| B&W 800 series diamond Any feedback on those models? Buzz? | |
| Attaching speaker wire directly to crossover? I built my own speakers last year and hard wired the speaker wires directly into the crossover board inputs. I find that there is a bit less distortion and noise than if the signal passes through three sets of soldered connections. Think about it.... | |
| Has anyone heard the new Pass Labs XP-15 phono? I just got mine and loaded it 100 ohms with 66db gain for my Dynavector XX-2 .3 mv cartridge. Sounds superb with low noise and great dynamics. Tonally, it strikes a great balance between smooth and detailed, so it comes out very musical with all t... | |
| B&W 800 N vs 802 N Bass Response Yes, they're better in the bass than the 802s. I've heard them side by side. The full midbass of the 802s makes them sound fuller, but the 800's have deeper more accurate bass and therefore a cleaner midrange. Try the 801D's. With their 15" bass d... | |
| Trade offs? Get a quality turntable, stylus and phono stage. You won't like the CD's after listening to it. | |
| Is my Placette linestage holding back my Krell AMP Get a clean used Krell KCT preamp and hook them together with a pair of Krell Cast interconnects. You won't be disappointed. This is one heck of a combo. I owned it and shouldn't have given it up. | |
| Are Digitally mastered LPs any better than CDs? They vary widely. Some of the digitally mastered LP transfers sound bad. Some are excellent. It really depends on the mastering and pressing. Digital recordings have wide frequency bandwidth and wide dynamic range. If the LP is cut with wide groov... | |
| Next step after B&W 802D KEF 207/2 Reference | |

| Classe or Mac ?? I'd go with the Classe set-up. | |
| Meridian 808 vs 808.2 Pretty much state of the art in digital replay. User interface isn't perfect, but the sonics are close. | |
| B&W 800d's or MAGICO V3's? A step down in my opinion. The 800D is a much more capable performer in all areas. Just look at the drivers. |
