| Affordable SS that sound like Tubes @tonydennison Tony, I have a Margules ACRH3 hybrid integrated, it's 100wpc. It sounds fantastic and is very dynamic. Margules is a company from Mexico I had never heard of. Fact is they are one of the oldest makers of both pro and home gear in t... | |
| Need a new Class AB SS integrated...$2-3k due to hurricane How about Margules ACRH3. 100wpc hybrid. Impressive dynamics, quiet, powerful. | |
| Soundstage Heresy IV and Forte IV @tonydennison absolutely my friend! | |
| Soundstage Heresy IV and Forte IV Tony, when I had mine on stands the soundstage seemed to open up even more. I felt that once they were on the stands all my small list of issues with them seemed to go away. The H4's on stands with a sub and 40w from my Mac240 was sublime. | |
| What Horn loaded speaker/ speaker system for $10k'ish and under Completely in the Volti camp! With @jond @krgottschalk on this. I am completely blown away with my Razz. Either SS or Tube they are simply effortless, have a beautiful soundstage, and the mids are stunning. You could pick up a pre-loved pair o... | |
| Cary SLI-80HS modifications @pehare Thank you! You as well! @decooney My friend, you must be in my brain somehow. One of the things I've heard Greg say is he likes the way EL34's sound with some of his speakers. Last night I was thinking just that! Seeing what a quartet of ... | |
| Cary SLI-80HS modifications @txp1 I decided to wait about a week. Like @pehare Mine was slightly high when I did check bias, so I backed down slightly. Otherwise right out of the box, no fuss no muss. I was startled at how good it sounds with my Volti’s. When I visited Greg ... | |
| As A Youngster, What Unit Puqued Your Interest In All This? I know better now, and I know that this will generate some snickers, but it was the first time I viewed and heard a pair of Bose 901's. The father of a girlfriend had a sweet system and those 901's just sounded awesome to my 15yo ears. This starte... | |
| How Much Do Aesthetics Factor Into Your Decisions? For me it's in line with "variety is the spice of life". There is so much variety out there in our wonderful hobby, I would argue that for a desired sound, at a desired price point, one would find many variations aesthetically to float ones boat. ... | |

| Cary SLI-80HS modifications @decooney Thank you for the feedback. I haven’t yet listened in triode mode. I do enjoy female vocals, so I’m looking forward to it. My speakers are Volti Razz, with sensitivity in the low to mid 90’s. (part of the reason i really sought out the S... | |
| Cary SLI-80HS modifications Hello all, I too just recently took delivery on a new SLI80-HS. I am blown away. I opted for all the upgrades. With the sale it was hard to resist. I have only had limited listening time at this point, and no doubt I'm weeks away from things reall... | |
