| Passive Pre - No Regrets? I moved from a Cary to a Reference Line 1A. An improvement in naturalness and soundstaging. Best single improvement since upgrading to a Meridian 508.24 CDP.Associated equipment: Atma-sphere M60 2.3 ampsSilverline Sonata MKIOK, one regret-every on... | |
| Passive Preamp for Atmaspheres? I am using a Reference Line 1A with my Atma-Sphere M60 MkII.3's. The result has been very pleasing. Primary improvements are detail, wide open staging, and neutrality. My source is a Meridian 508.24, cables to the passive are Zu Warmouths and to t... | |
| How do I know what my system's I agree with Chazzbo - rather than "weak" link look for a variation on your approach to reproducing music. Think sonic change rather that weakness.I see your all SS rig and think tube pre-amp or as someone has suggested a turntable. Or perhaps a p... | |
| Reference 3A and SS namely Krell I am currently running DeCapos with an Electrocompaniet Ampliwire-75 (75 watts of laid back Norwegian SS) and they sound great. But this amp is not forward or aggressive tending to long term listening without fatigue and not calling much attention... | |
| Opinions on VTL-IT 85 paired with Silverline Sonat Silverlines Sonatas are receptive to low or high power. They are an easy load for amps. I am driving them at this moment with 60 watts from Atma-Sphere M60 mk II.3's but they also liked the 120 watts from a pair of Manley's and really sang. I thin... | |
| Do I even need or want a preamp? I will second the passive preamp route. I am using a Reference Line 1A with Atma-sphere M-60 MKIII amps. It has been the single biggest improvement in the system since the Atma-Spheres. It brought out detail, imaging and richness in my Silverline ... | |

| I've all the gears. Whatelse do I need? Try electricity-but you will have to pay monthly and it may well run be more than $300 over time. | |
| Which Multimeter for newbie. Whatever you do go digital. Analogs are difficult to read. Try a pawn shop. I bought a $180 Fluke digital multimeter for $20. Sure it was used and a little beaten but function is 100%. | |
| Best sounding system for under $10k Blue! Uh, I mean red! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH | |
| Unused channels on a multi channel amp I have been using three of five channels on a Parasound 1205a for 2 years without problem. | |
| DIY CDP Platform... If you can't afford granite or marble, Corian (synthetic marble countertop) works very nicely. | |
| Looking for a SET amp to pair with MM DeCapo's Thanks to all for the input so far. I guess Decware is out and 300B is in. Sad because I sold an ASL 300B about a year ago along with Omega T-2's. | |
| Is my ceiling too low? Do you bump your head?In all seriousness, I have a soffit for the central heating/cooling system ducts that is 5' wide and runs the width of my room directly over the sweet spot. It reduces the ceiling height to 7'4' in this area. This has never p... |
