In wall -/ in ceiling speaker suggestions please I love my Klipsch in-ceiling speakers, with a Paradigm sub. This is a stereo system in a living room that is not my primary critical listening system.I would think in-ceiling speakers would be fine for rears in a surround system, with in-walls for... | |
How to isolate bookshelf speakers on a bookshelf On top of a cabinet is much better then in a bookcase.Blue-Tack will couple the speaker to the cabinet. Footers will have a different effect. Try both. You can experiment with Vibrapods and Vibrapoints for relatively little money, and later use th... | |
Building a Music Room A project like yours was the subject of an article in HiFi+. Try checking out issues from Jan-March('09). | |
Novice here with questions Magnepans driven by a NAD intergrated or receiver rated at 100 w will do the job. If you buy used, there will be enough for a good CD player. Used, or Anti Cables will help you stay on budget.I agree that the Magnepans will respond to better ampli... | |
JBL L series....early 90s...L-3,5,7 I owned L-55's. 14 inch woofer, two way ported system that was very efficient and produced great bass. Shudda kept them. | |
Making the best of mediocre speakers Consider ceiling speakers with tweeters that can be aimed at the listening position. I am very happy with Klipsch in ceiling speakers. They don't require much power, so a tube or class A SS amp will will be sufficient.You really need to convince y... | |
Well ,I got the A/V receiver to play music, but... There is a website that might be helpful. You enter the model # of your components and it will give you connections for home theatre, Try Googling, or maybe someone out there has the name of the site. | |

Best Amp with Magnepan 3.6's I have added Musical Fidelity 550K superchargers (monoblocks), to a Mapleshade modded Scott 222c. The best of both worlds. A sweet tube sound with excellent transient response, real bass and slam . Piano is magical.They make Maggies come alive. | |
Lost - Your combined experience required You didn't say what is on the floor. If it's wall to wall more power would certainly help. I think rooms that open to another room, have large open entres, or are continuous with another room, as you describe can be difficult. Experiment with near... | |
Integrated for Harbeth Small Room System Can't go wrong with above recommendations.How about Musical Fidelity A1. It has a USB port for your computer, and "Class A" sound. It's being discounted by Audio Advisor for $999. If 36 RMS will be sufficient , it might be worth a try. | |
Budget integrated ideas: budget $650 A new or used NAD would be a good choice. | |
NAD C355BEE Owners - Advice Needed Cardas jumpers may sound better. Music Direct sells Cardas and Audioquest. You could try both, and return one. | |
Best speaker used under $1000 for piano rec. Agree with Magfan. If you have decent amplification, even MMG's on good stands do an excellent job with piano. | |
Any good equipment racks that are afordable? You could easily do a Mapleshade rack for under $1,500. Three shelves for about $1,000. Ocsasionally one comes up for sale on Audiogon. |
