| Which integrated with Harbeths and Ayre CX-7e You are right, we did have that conversation before. ;-)60 watts is adequate with the SLH5's, though more would be good too. | |
| Jeff Rowland Capri preamp Here's what Rowland says about balance:The balance control function operates in .5 dB increments with a maximum available differential between left and right of 6 dB. This is achieved by pushing either left or right balance buttons on the remote. ... | |
| Which integrated with Harbeths and Ayre CX-7e As a Harbeth owner, I have a few suggestions. I'd probably start with the Ayre just to optimize that interface. Plinius is a perennial favorite with Harbeth, but I didn't like the 9200 with mine. I've had pretty good luck pairing Harbeth with Clas... | |
| Review: Bent Audio Tap Linestage Does anyone know what the output impedance is on the TAP? The difference between the sound of two amps I have (Gamut and Nuforce) when used with the TAP is about as day and night as can be, so I wonder if there is a matching thing going on. | |
| APL NWO2.5 ? Buy the best source first and then work back towards the speakers. Only then can you know for sure how up to snuff the rest of your gear really is.The inverse is just as true. Moreso if you ask me. | |
| Jeff Rowland Capri preamp I'm going to disagree a little. I own a Concerto preamp and have owned both the Model 1 and 201 amps. In the case of the new products, which have been on the market for a while now, I think it is beyond shameful that users manuals do not ship with... | |
| 1st Order Xovers....A question of absolute volume. You might ask Roy. He likes to crank the rock music so I'd be surprised if the Imagos won't play LOUD. | |
| Transparency and the two types of speakers I guess I respectfully disagree with Mrtennis on this. Yes, of course you can warm up a system, but that's not what IO'm talking about. If a speaker is not transparent in the way I have defined the term, I've yet to figure out how to make it so. S... | |
| Green Mountain Audio Imagos Anytime my man, happy to oblige. :-)Good decision, Oz. | |
| APL NWO2.5 ? Apologies to all. I misread "euphonic" as "euphoric". And my point was that I think the APL products are accurate and neutral while being musically convincing and, yes, euphonic. | |
| APL NWO2.5 ? In my experience, euphonic is a term I would definitely not use to describe Alex's players. | |
| Green Mountain Audio Imagos Ah...inner peace comes at the expense of a sense of humor, I see. | |
| REALITY CABLES ? Thanks for posting that detailed account. Your review focuses on the relative rankings of the cables, but you don't say anything about the sound. Can you comment on what the Reality Cables do well (I'm sure they are good in some performance areas)? | |
| Green Mountain Audio Imagos C'mon Warrenh... take the bait | |
| The importance of proper set-up I am playing with my first unipivot arm, a Kuzma StogiS, which rests in a trough of silicone damping fluid. Something strikes me as irrational about this approach. If an LP is not absolutely flat, the silicone prevents the arm from moving instantl... |
