| Theta v.s. Sim Audio Hello...First, I am a dealer for Simaudio.These are both excellent choices and you really can't go wrong with either one for THEATER applications.However, if your system will be used for HT AND 2-chan listening, my choice would ABSOLUTELY be Simau... | |
| Wilson Audio Sophia Alleung,You wouldn't happen to be a Wilson dealer or owner of the Sophia, would you? ;-)...Mike | |
| Best Dual purpose HT and Music speakers 10k Agree with Marty, Meadowlark is a great choice. They really are wonderful speakers given their modest price (modest being relative of course). Others you should consider would be the Talon Raven, B&W N802, Revel Studio, Wilson Sophia, Thiel CS... | |
| Talon Khorus x or B&W 802 Keithr...The Ravens are one of the GREAT "bargains" in audio, IMHO. As you stated, they are a LOT of speaker for the money. Enjoy your auditon of the Khorus X, let us know what your impressions are, good or bad.Here is a copy of some text of an em... | |
| Talon Khorus x or B&W 802 Marakanetz...All of the Talon speakers sound great with low or high loudness levels. At the lower levels, you do lose some of the dynamics and small micro-details, but not to any large degree. With that said, the Talon line plays louder while stil... | |
| Talon Khorus x or B&W 802 Dave (Makofkalaw)...I am a bass, dynamic range, and musicallity addict; the Edge, Sim, and EMC simply give me my "fix" better than any other combination that I have tried with Talon. In addition, this combo has a really liquid and lush mid-frequen... | |
| Talon Khorus x or B&W 802 Kana813...Ahhh, understood. I always forget that Tierry was doing loudspeaker design long before Talon existed.To answer your second question...The original Khorus w/X crossover upgrade is NOT the equal of the Khorus X. There are more changes to t... | |
| Talon Khorus x or B&W 802 Kana813,Hello...The main reason for the number of original Talon Khorus for sale is that these folks are upgrading to either the Talon Raven or Talon Khorus X. As good as the original Khorus was, the new Talon products are even better. If I may as... | |
| Talon Khorus x or B&W 802 Thanks Kirk...You are correct, there are certainly many dealers out there that only care about profit. Unfortunately, many of the good dealers end up being lumped in with the "bad apples" and we end up being treated like used car salesmen. For the... | |
| Talon Khorus x or B&W 802 Dan...Thanks for the kind words, I appreciate it very much.Avnut...You are correct, you don't need a ton of power with the B&W Nautilus series, but they really do sing with higher current amps. My "nuclear power station" comment may have come ... | |
| Talon Khorus x or B&W 802 Xenon101,Sorry you feel that way. I clearly stated I was a dealer, there is no secret motive here to sell something. I simply shared my OPINION (which by definition is biased and is what forums consist of, a bunch of biased statements). Whether I ... | |
| Talon Khorus x or B&W 802 Kthomas,The Khorus X works well in just about any environment. We have run them in as small a room as 11'x15' with outstanding results. The only issue really is that the smaller the room, the less bass response, this is of course due to the long w... | |
| Talon Khorus x or B&W 802 Hello...First, I must state a disclaimer that I am a Talon dealer and may be biased. With that out of the way, this is an unfair comparison (the X to the 802). A better one would be between the Khorus X and the Nautilus 800 Signature. The X and 80... | |
| Do I need a new pre-amp? Please correct me if I am wrong, but I don't believe the EAD Sig 5.1 has an analog pass-thru. In which case the benefit of having the incredible DAC present in the EMC-1 will be wasted. The reason: When you use the analog inputs into the EAD from ... | |
| Anyone heard the Electrocompaniet ECD-1 DAC? I am an Electrocompaniet dealer, so take my opinion with a "grain of salt" ;-)The ECD-1 is indeed the EXACT same DAC as used in the latest EMC-1. It is an amazing piece and with a decent transport and interconnect, you can obtain performance VERY ... |
