| What is the best full range Speaker ? John did say 5 and not 5A. John usually gets through his New years resolution of making no mistakes for at least one day. | |
| Is there life after a KXR? Help I only have experience with the Lamm 1.2 Ref. It drove Eggleston Andra 2's w/o any issues, controllung the big 12" woofer without sweat. FWIW, I would think both amps can drive all but the most demanding loads. So, the simple synergy aspect would ... | |
| Wavac PR-X2 I heard one of their preamps a my NY dealers. I am just not sure which one, but believe it was 20-25K, line stage only. It was very impressive, and this dealer has had some very formidable preamps, including VTL, and CAT, to name a few. I did not ... | |
| Magico V3: Metal dome tweeter Thanks. A friend who I spoke with earlier answered the question for me. He said it was a soft dome. The bullet plug on the Revelator confused me a bit since it is metal. Actually, I should have specified super Revelator. | |
| Audio Research Ref: CD8 My X-mas tree is already in the bag. Please let us know your findings. I would think unless the CD8 is clearly superior, that the CD7 would now be great value for some. | |
| Siltech or Tara Labs GamuT " He used pure silver IC,SC and PC's and it was lifeless and bleached without bass extention and lot of grain through the midrange and treble". I assume you mean the system sounded this way before inserting the K-S cords. What were the results lik... | |
| VAC owners, sound off I have a Vac amp, which does have a high gain. I believe38, as opposed to many other tube amps, which are closerto 30. I only open my V-C to around 9:00 ot 1/4 turn,which is loud. The manufacturer of my preamp said not toworry about this because t... | |
| Parsifal Ovation VS Egglestonworks Andra II What speakers do you currently own. It seems from a previous thread that you may already own or have owned theOvations. I have owned the Encores and Andra 2's. If you still own the Ovations, what are you looking to get that they may not offer you.... | |
| Eggleston Andra power requirements I had the Andra 2's for a while, although they are supposed to be a bit more efficient than the original Andra's. I feel that the 2 needed alot of power. I could not imagine the VK-60 being even close to enough power with this speaker. The Vac 300... | |
| Audio Research Ref: CD8 "The CD 7 was already close to the top regardless of price." What other top flight players have you found the CD7 comparable to or better than ? | |
| PC & IC: Stealth vs KS Emotion vs Elrod I can concur w/ Teajay and Azjake's advice. I own both the Indra and Emotion. I use the Indra from CDP>Preamp, and the Emotion from my full function pre>amps. I prefer the Emotion in this link, as it does add a bit more texture. Is K-S bring... | |
| Top 5 guitar jams I always enjoy Telegragh Road- Dire Straits. I second Since I've been loving you, I think Robert meant 7am till 11pm."Really makes life a drag, I know dat ain't right"Alright, at least one more here. MMMHow about Lindsay on Big Love from Fleetwood... | |
| Trip to the vinyl shop/ Jimi Hendrix: Axis: BAL Thanks HDM. I did check out Acoustic Sounds web page and saw that this Geffen label Axis: BAL along w/ Are You Experienced was just released. It was nice to see that my local shop had the newer MFSL releases , and also some of the Universal ones a... | |
| Verity Parsifal or Magico V3 or Wilson Benesch ACT I owned the Parsifal Encore, and they are truly a great speaker. I drove them for a short time with the Accuphase A50V amp. I would just add here that the A50V is not your typical 50 watt amp, if in fact it is rated at 50wpc. That, I am not sure o... | |
| Think I blew a driver on my Vandersteens 5A OK. First, I have been getting to know the DB meter a bit better. I did have the difference in db wrong. Same track, same passage yields a 5-6 db difference. Live and learn I guess. I started w/ taking the preamp out, and running the CDP direct. I... |
