| What area or country do you live in ? Upstate NY, Within 3 hours from Boston, NYC, Montreal, Buffalo from each direction. Winters here last about 6 months. | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Just heard few pieces by Khatia and currently listening Pictures. I take back what I said, she's astounding. I was quick to judge based on her youtube appearance. | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Maybe I need to take a closer listen. To which recordings are you referring specifically ? What about Boris Giltburg? Just heard his Rach 3 on Tidal, very impressive tone. | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Having seizure like activity seems to be in style for a modern pianist. Matsuev reminds me of Gilels in that sense, minimal upper body movement. I totally agree with jim about Mitsuko, quite distasteful. As for Khatia Buniatishvili, I don't think... | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Has anyone heard Denis Matsuev? I personally think he's the best all around concert pianist currently in the world and has been for at least past 5 years. Just curious what others think. He's recorded most of the Russian piano masterpiece repertoi... | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados rvpiano I completely agree, I found his playing uninspiring and rather dull. | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Is anyone familiar with Daniil Trifonov's work? He's a Russian pianist who's quickly becoming a giant that may one day rival the likes of Gilels and Richter, imo. I stumbled upon him 6 years ago when he played Prokofiev's 3rd concerto in Lincoln c... | |
| Vienna acoustics waltz and Bach Never found them. Kept the Bach speakers on spikes and no brackets for waltz. But I’m sure you can do it yourself and mount them if you invest a little bit of time. | |
| Opera on Tidal - What Are Your Favorites? Check out Vivaldi GLORIA NISI DOMINUS (mqa) track nos 16, and 22. Sublime | |
| New high end from Serbia? Auris audio I happen to live within half hour of this upstate NY dealer. Thanks for sound advice Scorpio, I didn't think about stability of the company long term. So I take it most people here have never heard this amp. | |
| Low power tube amp for Sonus Faber? Just found this review by Jeff from Tone Audio: "With a wide range of amplifiers at my disposal—solid-state, tube and class D amps, ranging from a pair of 20-watt 845 SET monoblocks all the way up to the mighty Pass Labs’ XA200.5 monoblocks—all we... | |
| Low power tube amp for Sonus Faber? Thanks everyone for input. It seems the majority here agrees 30w is not ideal. So if that’s the case I might be able to get mastersound 845 evolution. It’s 55w per channel. Would this be better or I shouldn’t bother at all under 100w? | |
| Low power tube amp for Sonus Faber? I have a small room and listen mostly to piano, jazz, opera, classical, full scale symphony etc. If I crank up the volume, am I risking amp to clip and damage my elipsa? i really wanna get the amp, I’m in love with it. | |
| Low power tube amp for Sonus Faber? My options are 845 compact or mc275. 845 evolution is not an option for me. I think MS is more high end than mc 275 (is this accurate ?) and I’m trying to stay away from Mcintosh. I’m currently using mc452 and c2600. @mboldda1 how is your low end ... | |
| Mcintosh C2600 preamp tube upgrade ad48170I have the same exact set up as you with MC452,C2600, mcd550 and SF Elipsa. Though I noticed you switched your speakers to Amati Futura. May I ask what prompted this change. What cables are you using? I love my current set up, but still us... |
