| Tube Friendly Speakers These may not be as esoteric as some would like but I think KEF reference series are "just right" for tubes. I'm using the Ref-III.2 with my ARC VT-100 and am extremely satisfied. The Ref series is fairly high output, 90 db give or take, and has a... | |
| ML 39 w/Bryston amp and Thiel 2.3? This sounds like a great setup! I'd tend to not use the #39 unless you are getting a super deal. I've owned this unit and was satisfied with its sound. It was "tweeky" in the sense that if it ever loses power, a full hour must pass before plugging... | |

| Audio Artistry Dvorak.Any users? I am using this speaker. I do not advise using it with tubes. I've used it with ARC VT100 for the last 3 years with mixed results. Tonight, I'm using borrowed BEL MK-V monoblocks and the sound is STUNNING! This is the true meaning of synergy! This... | |
| Bad sounding CD s Oldy CDs sound less than optimal (that J. Tull "Aqualung" P.U.!) 'cause some bean counting manager(mangler) didn't realize to use the "master" master tape and used the "equalized" master for cutting LP records instead.This stuff has to be "reverse... |
