| Need some expert advice I know a guy who's continually upgrading his Dyn's to better Dyn's and always uses NAD. That makes me happy as I've always loved the NAD house sound. I have a NAD 317 80 watt integrated amp and I compared it to a 200 watt Rotel and the NAD spanked... | |
| B&W and deteriorating Kevlar drivers Not me as they're rather expensive for me. and I also don't have the space for them. I have owned the 602's and currently own the CM7's. My 602's held up well and I sold them to a lucky Agoner after 12 years of enjoyment. I didn't notice any issue... | |
| New House: Audio room/Office What a nice looking home. I really like that log cabin style. Good luck with the new place. | |
| The best acoustic guitar recordings?? Gilberto Gil Acoustic. That's the best. | |
| Speakers for long, tall, bare room in NYC The Tekton's offer a 30 day trial period and a 5 year warranty. Buconero is right about room treatments. | |
| Speakers for long, tall, bare room in NYC Since you probably can't play music at glass shattering volumes, maybe you should look into the Tekton Design OB4.5 Monitors And S12 Subwoofer. They received a Blue Note Award from Enjoy the Music. Here's some of what they said about them.You will... | |
| Inexpensive integrated to drive Klipsch Save a little more and buy the Rogue Cronus on Agon for $1195. | |
| Help me pick a power amp There's an NAD 214 for $150 on Agon. That's a good 80 watt amp and that's conservatively rated imho. I have the NAD 317 integrated which is basically the same thing and it's got a lot of power. | |
| Looking for suggestions for amp upgrade Have you ever heard any of the Rogue equipment? I presonally love it. If you can find a good deal on the Rogue, you can probably get what you paid for it if you don't like it. It would be nice if you could listen at a local dealer. | |
| New spreakers sound great But I had a brand new Rotel RB-1582 (200 watt amp) and RC-1580 preamp with B&W CM7 speakers and even after break in, there just wasn't any bass. Being unwilling to add a subwoofer, I replaced the amp and preamp with an integrated tube amp. The bas... | |
| SET Recommendation May I ask what speakers you would use with one? I'm just curious as I have no idea of examples that would work. I've read about Horne Shoppe Horns, which are fairly inexpensive. Is that the type of speakers Brf might be referring to? | |
| Rogue Cronus Magnum & AKG K702's Rja, I purchased the Magnum. I've never heard the regular Cronus. I purchased it used on Agon. I recommended it to a friend who purchased one from a local dealer and got it (Cornus Magnum) for just under 2k. If you search Cronus on Audiogon forum,... | |
| open/energetic but not harsh? what am i describing I think Mcfarland has a good point. I own CM7's which have the Nautilus tube loaded tweeter. I was running new 2 channel Rotel seperates and wanted to jam a screwdriver into the tweeters every time I listened to music. I finally got to the point w... | |
| Rogue Cronus Magnum & AKG K702's I hope so too. I'm just looking for something to get me by when my wife crashes early on the weekends. It seems like it's been happeneing a lot lately and always when I'm ready to turn up the volume, not down. | |
| Rogue Cronus Magnum & AKG K702's Tpreaves. I did research this but I'm having post purchase anxiety. These cans can be purchased from reputable authorized dealers for $248, so don't let the $399 on Amazon scare you. I could probably sell them for what I paid for them considering ... |
