| Audio Physic Virgo II vs Avanti III The Virgo IIs have great detail potential. They are room and placement sensitive...... With acoustic music, especialy Guitar, I have not heard a Speaker with more detailed presentation than the Virgo II. They are not the last word in detail or dyn... | |
| Audio Physic Virgo II vs Avanti III Robert, You made me understand why I started this thread. I'm looking for people with my same preference to musical reproduction. I understand the Avanti III is a different beast. But should I replace my Virgos?. What are all the Virgo lovers upgr... | |
| Audio Physic Virgo II vs Avanti III I did get a response for Joachim Gerhard. He said he was the designer for Virgo I & II. On the Avanti III, he was one of the designers. Spending most of his time Marketing. Sold Audio Physic in 2004. Now it's Sonics by Joachim Gerhard Design..... | |
| Audio Physic Virgo II vs Avanti III My room size is 22'x 30' half the ceiling is 10' and half is 20', into a loft. I also have a room attached to the rear of the listing area that is 12'x14'...so lots of air to fill! I added 2 Rel Storm IIIs to give me the missing octive. I don't th... | |
| Audio Physic Virgo II vs Avanti III Wendell, I take that as a yes. It is worth the extra $$$. Did you keep your IIs?. I'm driving my Virgos with a Pass X-350 and still searching for the right Preamp ( Adcom GFP-750). At higher volume, highs still to bright on most recordings. Very n... | |
| Vandersteen 2ce sigs? Beginner needs guidance. I got advice when I put together my first system. It was good advise. I had Allison speakers that I teamed with a Parasound used HCA-1500A for 400.00 or try a HCA-1000A for 300.00. I can't remember the pre but it would cost in the 150.00 range. Fo... | |
| Amp for Virgo III's I agree with keithr on Cary. For solid state, Pass Labs. The first time I heard Virgo II's driven by a Pass Labs X-150 I was hooked! I now have a X-350, even better. I have not heard them but understand the new generation .5 versions are a signifi... | |

| Pass Labs users. Next upgrade? Thank you all for your help! I've narrowed my choices to an X-1 or X-0.2 (possible trouble in paradise W/ the 0.2 price). It probably makes sense to stay with Pass products for the synergy. The next logical upgrade would be the X-350.5. The X-350 ... | |
| Pass Labs users. Next upgrade? 9rw, Are you talking tube or solid state when recommending Audio Research? There are so many A.R. pre's on the used market. What have you used w/ your X-350? If you are not familiar with my Audio Physic Virgo's they have a similar sound to Magnapa... | |
| Pass Labs users. Next upgrade? Null1, I have no room treatments and I don't use a power conditioner. I have my system in the main living area. I would be afraid for my personal safety if I attempted to make my audio presence dominate my wife's decor. I don't have problems inter... | |
| Hooking up two Rel Storm III's to Pass Labs X-350 Kent From Pass Labs, I'd appreciate your thoughts on my double Rel hook-up to my X-350. Because it low levels are awesome. I'm now concerned with the mids and highs. Could it be my Adcom Gfp-750 Pre?Thanks, Greg | |
| Pass Labs users. Next upgrade? Null 1, I'm useing Analysis Plus Oval 9's speaker cables, M.A.S. Xlr interconnects and Pass Labs supplied power cords. On My TRL Mod SACD player I have a TRL Silver power cord, I forget the model.Greg | |
| Hooking up two Rel Storm III's to Pass Labs X-350 Kent, Check out the thread 5-29-06.... "Running two Rel subs on one Amp- possible?" This worked for me. My phone call to Sumiko is what confused me last summer and lead to the smoke and flames and you guys bailing me out.Thanks again, Greg Leavey | |
| Eliminate system hum A dedicated circuit is the best way to go. The Nation Elec.Code (NEC) has changed it's grounding requirements over the years. So it depends when you house was built or updated what kind of grounding you have. Also different States ,Counties and Ci... |
