| Need help matching equipment I think this sounds like a nice project for you to figure out on your own and post your feedback. That would help people out in the future. We would learn a lot. You would learn a lot. I'm not trying to come across as a jerk but you're in a pretty... | |
| PSB Image T6 fuzzy sound That's interesting you made this discovery. It makes perfectly good sense because audiophiles are not Oppo's target market. It's home theater people. Each unit is preset for home theater optimization for the same reason a television is set for sto... | |
| Hegel H300 I'd love to hear the Hegel. My dealer tells me he's going to have one for me to addition soon. He just got in the Ayre AX5 today and texted me a picture. There's a pretty decent price gap between the Hegel and the Ayre. I have this funny feeling I... | |
| Which integrated amp? When I used to own B&W speakers I always had the best luck with NAD. If I were in your shoes I would be looking at the C375bee. Look into the Hegel H200 as well. | |
| Hegel H300 There's a review of the H300 that directly compares it against the M6 500i at goodsound.com. | |
| PSB Image T6 fuzzy sound It's funny. By you writing that the thread was old, I looked at the op and immediately assumed it was from 2008. I've only had one vodka drink tonight. Maybe I should get off the Schmirnoff. | |
| Integrated Choice - Down to two The Rogue is trouble free and easy to maintain. It's a bargain as well. The option to tube roll and upgrade (Magnum - kt120's) makes it an even better choice. Bias tool comes with it and it takes about 50 seconds to bias it every couple of months.... | |
| Speaker Placement This is ridiculous. Music wasn't recorded to listen like that. The sound would reach each ear at two different moments in time from both directions. Can you understand how bad that would sound? The sound from the right channel would reach your rig... | |
| Integrated amp: jumpers versus cables You might as well try it. Chances are you'll keep them in and eventually use them for you next integrated. If you even had to ask, chances are you can't stop yourself from getting them anyway. | |
| Montreal Jazz Festival 34th Edition All jazz festivals are the same. They originated as a jazz festival and then realized they could bring in more money if they included other genres. When the Montreal Jazz Festival started Miles was still alive and played the festival every year. Y... | |
| Grateful Dead fans, check out the "New Yorker" I did 126 shows. I'm okay. My wife did 120. She's a nurse practitioner. We made it out alive. It wasn't hard to break 100 if you sold peanut butter sandwiches. I came home and earned a bachelors in marketing. That was a long time ago. My youngest ... | |
| The Lawyers Have Taken Over Audio I'm surprised you posted this as a great article. I'd like to know what makes it great. This article does nothing but make the hobby more unbearably difficult for the people that support it the most. | |
| Rogue Tempest Magnum original ver questions The Tempest 1 was 60 watts stock. Your Magnum is probably 90 watts. I'm pretty sure the KT90's are actually about 1/4 inch taller than the 120's. the issue you'll run into is the larger diameter of the 120. I think Rogue will tell you you can use ... | |
| Why do Harbeth speakers have such a cult following Yes, but you get that with everything that comes from outside the U.S. You could say the same for Revel, Sonus Faber and so on. | |
| Just listened to The Blue Nile I appreciate you taking the time to do that Ben. I think I'll have to order that one. |
