| What is the most important cable in your system I was thinking about my system and the changes I described and I now realize I forgot to include another change that happened at the same time that I completely discounted that could have been part of the improvement I realized… When I took out t... | |
| What is the most important cable in your system I have a system that has evolved quite a bit over past 7 years with a variety of amps and speakers, in and out of the system. My dac, streamer, server and power distribution have all stayed the same. And while I’ve noticed subtle changes as I ... | |
| You ended up with Ayre, what are your speakers? I lurk way too often and don’t post enough, but this question inspires me to comment. I am using a very old AX-7e with Klipsch Forte IV and against all odds, it’s an awesome pairing. I’ve had several tube integrateds well into the 5 digits and w... | |

| Pioneer EX Speakers Kal is correct. If you do a google search on Pioneer S-3EX, you'll pull up quite a few hits. Unfortunately most of them are in Japanese, and then translated to English by google, but at least you can find some general info. | |
| Pioneer EX Speakers I live in Japan and actually have had a chance to listen to the S-1ex, as well as the newest model, the S-3ex - It is exactly the same as s-1ex, but has smaller dimensions and instead of a beryllium tweeter, it has a 'ceramic graphite' tweeter. Re... | |
