| Mid grade Integrated amp choices OP,If you do consider tubes, then an Atma-Sphere amp would be my choice. Though keep in mind tubes give off a lot of heat.I still recommend buying used and saving a ton of depreciation. I can't say I have ever had a problem that even a warranty wo... | |
| GoldenEar vs Dynaudio vs Nola vs ProAc vs Everything else. +1 for Vandersteen, and getting subs if going below the Quatro's,ProAc's are nice, too, but they have a 'European' sound, so it would behoove you to listen to them first. (-though I think they are very good).This post will probably give you much m... | |
| How important is the rack you use for your components +3 for newbee,I have my system in the LR/DR, so aesthetics and limited placement take precedent.My approach is to isolate my components as much as possible. Unfortunately, I am unable to house them in a rack, but I do use Stillpoints, Townshend po... | |
| Vandersteens, PSB or something else? stringreenVandersteen Thank You!@stewart0722 Lookup posts here on Agon regarding Maggies and Vandy sub combos.And, yes, I have heard the combination. If I had to give up my Treo's, a pair of Maggies would be my first choice.B | |
| Vandersteens, PSB or something else? +1 mr_m.In fact Vandy subs are considered an excellent pairing with Maggies.B | |
| What’s your favorite recording of Mahler’s 8th Symphony? Great recommendation. +1I managed to find a copy of Mahler's 6th that I remembered from college.It was a live recording and for the entire performance, you didn't hear a single cough.Something you couldn't do hear in the US.B | |

| Adcom GFA-555 in Mexico on 127 volts? The GFA 555 is built like a tank. Mr. Pass did one fine job. I still have mine from the 80's. (I really need to sell it).B | |
| Dealers hijacking the discussions @p59teitel +1. I think Johnny provides great information without trying to sell his products. A mark of great character.Bob | |
| DNA 2 lae Call SMc Audio. Pat or Steve can give you all the info you need.Also, you can ship the DNA-2, but you need to double box it and properly pad it.Bob | |
| Vandersteens, PSB or something else? OP, are you near any dealers?Bob | |
| Spotify or Pandora +1 willemj | |
| How to start streaming I would go for a Bluesound Node, if you want to connect with a PC or Mac, or a Vault and download all your files into it-which would be my choice.Call Bluesound directly. They have great customer support and can give you the most accurate info.Bob | |
| Vandersteens, PSB or something else? +1 for Joey54Johnny R is the best person to speak with. (PM him at 'audioconnection' here on Agon.Quatro's would be a match made in heaven, otherwise the Treo's with a pair of 2wq subs. I personally wouldn't go for the 3a sigs as the newer models ... |
