What am I missing out on here - Bi- wiring Speaker Who is they?If you do not want to use biwiring (which is usually better, but more expensive), the jumper wire should be short.Richard | |
Duel Mono Pre-amp I wouldn't get hung up on "dual mono" design. Some of the most high-end companies don't use that technology. Just look for a great product.Richard | |
Best PC for Krell FPB - 600 - 20 Amps I use the Pure Note Sigma on my FPB300. The improvement is quite amazing. If fact it was recently suggested to me by an honest dealer that had the FPB400CX for sale, that I would be better off not upgrading to his amp because the new Krells do not... | |
SACD or DVD Audio, which one is winning the race? Sorry that nobody answered your question; nor can I.I am sure that at the moment SACD's are winning by a lot, but that could change. I hope not, because I have jumped on the SACD bandwagon.To comment on Budrew's comment that most, but not all SACD... | |
What to power Thiel 2.4 speakers? Thiel's are very revealing and as stated love power. I would get the best you can afford. I have heard the bigger Thiel's driven by the Audio Research 600 and then by the Krell FPB600 within a few minutes of each other. Both sounded great.Stick wi... | |

Speakers for small room and TUBE AMP? Red Rose Music small speakers.See today's listings for a great deal.By the way, you may have some real problems with your bass. A 15X15 foot room is not good. I sure hope that you don't have 7.5' ceilings.Richard | |
SACD/Redbook one-box solution? John Marks (of Stereophile and audiophile CD producer) uses the Marantz SA-14 SACD player for playback of his CD's. He is excellent at answering e-amails. I bought one to replace my older Krell setup. I am thrilled with mine.Richard | |
balanced cables Also because the negative phase is subtracted from the positive phase, not only is all unwanted signals picked up on the interconnect rejected, but the end result will have a 6db increase in gain over unbalanced.In my case, with Krell, it makes a ... | |
Best one box CDP, Got it short listed to Four I would also add Marantz to the list...the SA-14. I have been very involved in audio for 40 years, and this unit is one of the biggest surprises that I have come by. It is an unbelievable steal on the used market.Richard | |
Heavy speaker shipment Krell and I use Ocean Air for the heavy Krell amps. | |
Thank You, to the Person Who Helped You the Most. I think if I had to thank one person, it would be Dan D'Agostino of Krell.Not only does he design and make exceptional electronics, he personally wrote a white paper on the alteration of the B&W800's to run actively biamped and designed the x-... | |
Heavy speaker shipment About 10+ years ago, I got my B&W800's shipped to me 2nd day air. All went well. Done by Fedex. The shipment weighed 768lbs.Richard | |
Do I need a DAC for my Marantz SA14 I love my Marantz SA-14!I bought it to replace my older Krell/EAD combo CD source and be able to also play SACD's. Since I placed it on the Nueance platform, it is the best CD playback unit that I have heard, at any price. I would buy the platform... | |
