| Please rate WATT/Puppy 7 Classicjazz raises some good points. His comments caused me to think of this. I went from ESL 63's to Wilson 5.1's. The Quads made almost everything sound good. The Wilsons made everything sound different. The better recordings got better, the poo... | |
| Please rate WATT/Puppy 7 The Watt/Puppy is one of the most controversial products in audio. I own the 5.1's. They are a pain. The room and upstream equipment better be right. But, if everything is just so, they are something to hear. It took me years to get them to their ... | |
| Classic Records / Procol Harum Over the years I've bought a large number of their titles. My defect rate was small until they went to the new vinyl formula. I believe it's called Quiex. Anyway, I purchased a few of the 200 gram releases using this new vinyl. I liked the sound, ... | |
| HT Speakers - Thiel or PMC? Ken,I'm using CS1.6's in front with an SCS3 center channel. If your system is strictly for HT this combo will work great for you. The 1.6's will be a better match for your receiver, than the 2.4's, as they are more efficient and a bit more forgivi... | |
| what amp would maximize wilson sophias Michael,While I'm more familar with the WP, after reading what Duke wrote it appears the Sophia may be a similar challange to the power amp. Don't get to caught up in watts, current is the real issue. I use a ML 335 and it doubles it power at 4 oh... | |
| Best speaker match for Levinson system Navantis,What was it about the 802's your looking to improve on? If you went with Wilson or Avalon products, which is what I'd do with your components, you's more than likely be looking at considerable room treatment to max their performance. Thes... | |
| HDTV questions Slappy,Correct. | |
| HDTV questions Slappy,While I have TWC, I strongly suspect HD access will be the same with Comcast. Comcast should have some type of digital cable box with HD capability. TWC makes you rent theirs. It does the decoding. You'll need an HD ready set for HD and for... | |
| Is vinyl dead ? Rockinroni,You misunderstood my point about getting a turntable now. I agree that there are more good turntables available now than ever before. I'm not maintaining the supply of tables is about to drop. But, unless you live in or near a major Cit... | |
| Is vinyl dead ? Vinyl is dead as a mainstream commercial product. 95% of the market, or more, really doesn't care if the Lp sounds better than CD. I have given dozens of demos in my home over the years and the Lp continues to shock people who previously assumed C... | |
| Basis 2001 Peter,I went from a full boat Linn front end, except for a Benz Ruby 2 cartridge, to a Basis 2500/Graham 2.2. I continued to use the Benz with my new set up. I made the switch because the local Linn dealer was going under and I was losing my tech,... | |
| Transparent Audio cables System synergy is what cables are all about. I used Transparent Reference for several years with my Wilson 5.1's. This was supposed to be a perfect match but I still kept running into to many recordings that were to forward, specifically massed st... | |
| Upgrade to Graham 2.2 ? I have a 2500 and a Graham 2.2. I agree with what Twl says to a point. The main advantage the 2500/2800 have over your unit is their suspension. They are much better isolated from vibration. Your unit on a vibraplane(sp?)or some other type of stan... | |
| Continuation of my Thread on VPI, Basis, Origin... I have a Basis 2500, Graham 2.2 and a Ruby 2. I used to have a full boat Linn front end. The Linn front end had nothing I don't have now, but my new front end has superior image focus and bass control. The Graham has adjustments that allow you to ... | |
| Anyone ever used a KSA 200S w/Watt/Puppy's I have a ML 335 and Wilson 5.1's. I feel that the tonal balance of the newer ML stuff is a good match with Wilson's. Older Krell may be a little to upfront.I'm not surprised by Chuck's comment. Wilson Watt/Pups are extremely finicky and take lots ... |
