| 2023 Florida Audio Expo Show Report @snapsc I don't remember the Orchard room, but whole heartedly agree on Mofi and Volti. For $7500 that Hifi Rose and Mofi speaker combo blew me away. I went back multiple times, it was a very musical system! And those Razz speakers were amazingly... | |
| Phono Pre Gain Ron emailed me back yesterday and said that it would be fine. So I guess I'm going with the 9XA! Thanks to all who contributed!! | |
| Phono Pre Gain I have a PrimaLuna Evo300 amp, Fritz Rev 7 speakers rated at 87db. I typically don't listen too loud as my room is 12x13. From the looks of it I should be fine, I just don't want to be under and regret that I didn't get the ART9XI. I've just read ... | |
| Need speaker recommendations. +1 for Fritz speakers. I have a pair of Rev 7's placed about 18" from the wall in a 12x12 room. Crazy bass extension and airy highs. I'm running them on a PrimaLuna Evo 300 integrated and it's a beautiful pair. | |
| Tiny Room (6' x 9') speaker advice Check out the Tannoy Autograph mini's. Killer little speaker with a vintage look. I've got a pair in a 12 x 10 room with a REL sub. Huge sound! | |
| $1,500 phono upgrade worth it? @dill , I have played with the input and gain on the stage. I have it to where I get the least amount of noise, but it's still very noticeable. @millercarbon You are correct, I am fairly new to this. I understand that there is going to be some... | |
| Help me decide on first turntable purchase I have a setup similar to yours at least in the amp part. PrimaLuna Evo 300 integrated, Tannoy Autograph Mini, and a REL T/5i sub. I pretty much looked at all the tables you mentioned, and ended up with the Rega P6 with an Ania Pro cart. I got a v... | |
| KEF vs Canton Bookshelf Speakers I'm using an NAD C388 class D amp pushing 150 wpc. It's been fine pushing the Canton's that I have now. | |
| KEF vs Canton Bookshelf Speakers @big_greg What are you pushing with? I've read that the KEF's can sound harsh with Class D amplification (which is what I have). I have a pair of Canton SL596's right now, and love them. Aesthetically they are just too big for the room. | |
| What are you streaming tonight? Allen Toussaint "American Tunes" on Tidal! Such a lovely album!! | |
| Power Conditioners So basically the best bang for the buck right now is a dedicated line from my panel and a high quality surge protector. Thank you all for the information, it definitely helps weed through all the garbage out there! | |
| Power Conditioners But there's a lot of other more cost effective improvements and it would make sense to do those first. Such as? | |
| Power Conditioners Are you sure? If you're correct, your voltage is quite low and out of spec. Nominal voltage in the US is 120VAC ± 5 percent, so you should measure 114VAC minimum. My exact voltage is 114.8v. You are correct that 120v is standard, however voltages... | |
| Power Conditioners My power source is standard residential 110v. I live in FL and we get a lot of summer storms. That being said, when it doesn't get knocked out in said storms, the power is fairly stable with no brown/black out. My house was built in 1958 and the w... |
