| Candidates for best speakers in the $2000-5000 market There are a lot of good suggestions here. However, IMO the amp you will be using plays an important part as well as room and how your speakers will be arranged. | |
| Am I the only one who doesn’t love Harbeth P3esr? The P3 were not for me either. I drove them with my pass int 60 I had at the time. My LS50’s were much better sounding in my 12x14 room. I purchased the use so I assume they were broken in. I listen to a pair in a audio store with tubes and I stil... | |
| Pass Labs Speaker Choices Pass int 250. Dyn special 40’s in 12x14 room. Sound like floor standing speakers in my room. | |
| Loss of bass & full spectrum sound I have experienced the same with my Pass Labs 250. It is not speakers as I have several. I just wonder if it's the density or the air in the room at the time. Mine has no pattern to it. I get blow you out the room bass most of the time, but then a... | |
| Luxman 509x vs Hegel H390 I currently have a Hegal 390, Pass labs intergated 250( a beast) and a Mac MA 352 hybrid. I find the Hegal to be very musical in my set up. I was very surprised how good it sounds in my room. The mac with its tubes just sounds magical at times. Th... | |
| Pass Labs Int 25 vs Int 60 I have owned the Pass int 60 and it was traded to reno for a int 250. The 60 is a bit lusher in the mids. The 250 is a bit brighter but has more detail and wider soundstage. Im not sure I could say one is better than the other. I feel is just mor... | |
| Schiit Audio I have a LOKI max and it is awesome in my view. I have a pass 250 connected to dynaudio 40’s. I dont use it much, but there are times I need to correct some bass booms or adjust bright recordings. It does not muck up the sound like the old eq’s Th... | |
| What’s your latest high-end audio purchase? Today 9/23 I purchased a McIntosh MA 352. It’s not replacing anything. I just wanted to own a Mac piece. I am keeping my Pass 250. | |
| Integrated amp for Sonus Faber olympica nova 1 Mac? I had int 60, then moved to a int 250. I looked and listened to the mac Ma325 and I loved the looks and the sound. I have one on order. Still keeping my pass though. | |
| The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses I just received my SR purple today. I’ve installed it in my Pass INT 250 and I must say the reviews are spot on! Much richer sound then I had before. Sound is a lot more natural. I don’t know how the sound will be after break in, but if there is ... | |
| Help me spend $6000 I had a pass integrated 60 and now a 250. I found that Dynaudio speakers would give you what you are looking for. I used special 40’s for both amps. Wonderful full mids good bass and detailed without a hint of brightness. My Kef LS metas were not... | |
| Top 10 vintage cassette decks Aiwa F990. Most underrated deck ever made. I’ve heard nothing better. | |
| What's the heaviest speaker you've ever owned? What's the tallest? NHT 3.3's | |
| Dynaudio Special 40 audioguy85, I don't notice any cabinet resonance. I'm not sure I would know what to listen for. I know my kef LS50 dont have any resonance, and the 40's sound much better. | |
| Schiit Loki Max? Sorry, I meant that I COULD detect the Loki in my system. There seemed to be some compression with the unit installed. I switched back in forth many times, as I I wanted to keep the unit. It was very well built and did not change the character of ... |
