| Sonus Faber Guarneri vs Guarneri Memento I am in the process to change (again) my amps from Gryphon to Jadis (I have done this two times now) - and heard the GM at the dealer show room with exactly the same Jadis JA50 that I am currently testing at home.I heard the GM there and really li... | |
| Sonus Faber Guarneri vs Guarneri Memento I have lived both cases... old McIntosh (275 in this case) sounded better to me than the re-issue one, old JBLs (L65 or L300) sounded better to me than new models - but the other case also applies, many examples cover this story.The point is, not ... | |
| Sonus Faber Guarneri vs Guarneri Memento Daveyf - I understand that the mid-woofer vendor for the Guarneris is Scanspeak (custom made) - but Ican be wrong again... | |
| Best Solid State for Avalon Isis Just for the record - I talked to Neil some years back and liked Spectral by that time with his Eclipses. | |
| Sonus Faber Guarneri vs Guarneri Memento Could it be the quality of the Homage drivers vs the Memento's?? | |
| Jeff Rowland Continuum? Agreed Audiofeil. | |
| Jeff Rowland Continuum? I wonder why so many C500 are for sale out there.... | |
| need amplification help for sonus faber amati I am driving my SF Guarneri with a pair of Gryphon pre/power combo with great success, and integrated from Gryphon could also serve you well. | |
| Amp Suggestions.. I would try an integrated option from Simaudio, Plinus or Exposure for the Wakshes, it would be easier for you to move along with a small-fottprint amp that is fast, power to drive them and easy re-sale. | |
| Best Solid State for Avalon Isis I have had several Avalon speakers (but not the Isis in particular) - The best sound came out from a Gryphon Anthileon followed bt a Rowland 8.Hope ths helps you out. | |
| msb Ilink vs. wadia 170i ipd docks Just to add some salt grains here - I had an audio-fools meeting last night (we call each other that way - no offense) and played for about 1 hour music thru the iPOD/Wadia/Reimyo set-up I have with my new Gryphon amps - No one ver noticed I was p... | |
| msb Ilink vs. wadia 170i ipd docks The user interface on the 170i is not their best feature - one needs to create many different playlists to manage the music library in a convenient way - what really makes the Wadia itransport a great option is its performance. | |
| Gradient Helsinki Well - I have decided to pass on the Helsinkis, they are indeed a good design and worths a listen to anyone looking for a well integrated, almost full range and odd-looking speaker.My reference (Sonus Faber Guarneri) was just a high standard for t... | |
| Best integrated for SF Guarneri Homage? I just tried a pre/power combo from Gryphon thanks to a loan from the dealer - the BelCanto and S100 were here for a week or so, my findings:PROSi) better bass control and energyii) nice headroom and around-the-speaker air reproductioniii) great l... | |
| Gradient Helsinki I have a pair here loaned from the distributor, I have just had a couple of hours with them and I will definitely post something more formal later - first impressions:- The speaker MUST be toed-in to achieve the best bass response and integration ... |
