| PMC Twenty 22 standmount (discontinued) vs Dynaudio Contour 20 standmount (discontinued) I’ve owned several pairs of Dynaudio’s including Audience 42,52,52SE,Excite X14 & X18’s...I have also demo’d older pairs of Contours & Confidence... IMO they were never really really good until the Excite line & Countour line of the s... | |
| Which speakers are ideal to pair with a Yamaha as3200 I neglected to look at the link when I commented & gdaddy1 is correct,that is a HORRIBLE set up..You are never going to experience great speakers at their full potential in that set up.. Can you not rearrange the room so as to get the system s... | |
| Which speakers are ideal to pair with a Yamaha as3200 I'm a huge fan of ProAc however,I have experimented with my Tablette Anniversaries & find the imaging & staging far far superior when placing the tweeters to the outside as opposed to the recommended inside position... | |
| Mcintosh MQ112 Who gives a crap what others think about how they sound? If you like them,that’s all that matters... I'm not a big fan of Eq's,IMO all you are doing is masking the root of the issue.. Measurements from reviews show they can sound forward & b... | |

| ??? Why Non Current Limiting Surge Protection ??? @jea48 Yea that thread is why I posted this..To me it makes sense to want current limiting during a surge since the load stays the same & voltage increases ohms law says current will also increase... .I can’t see it affecting a power amplifier... | |
| ??? Are Manufacturers Killing Our Hobby ??? @krkingar well said.. | |
| Best Receiver for “Mid-Fi” System? Those speakers have a minimum impedance of 2.9 ohms..Digging around a bit also reveals the phase relationship has several big swings,meaning these speakers are going to be a difficult load.. ANY of the usual suspects from Marantz,Yamaha,Denon or ... | |
| Need a solid surge protector that’s non-current limiting. Emotiva has a new one..You'll have to ask them if it is current limiting as the specs don't say.. | |
| ??? Are Manufacturers Killing Our Hobby ??? @immatthewj that college degree you spents tens of thousands of $ on didn't teach you much did it ??? You should have started the sentence with a .... or !!!,not a ??? as you made a statement,not ask a question........ | |
