| Advice on a speaker purchase No, I have not heard the Forest with your Sim gear. Here's what I would do... I like the Forest so much, that not much else comes close for what they offer for the price (IMHO). You would be well served to buy the Forest now and upgrade your amp w... | |
| Advice on a speaker purchase You mentioned you like the Totem Hawks... well, my friend... I highly recommend the Totem Forest. Very, very musical and a sounstage to die for. They image like crazy and have unbelievable bass for their modest size. They are a big step up from th... | |
| Should Rotel be ok to drive Totem Forrest? Totem Forrest are great speakers. They image like crazy. Have superior bass for their small stature. And, throw a soundstage like nobody's business.That being said, I like Totem Forrest and have them in my 2nd system. "CELLOROVER" makes a good poi... | |
| I'm New To Vinyl - Which Turntable Should I Buy? Gilbodavid:Thanks for clarifying that for me. In your post, you said MC cartridges need more amplification... do you mean in the preamp stage, or in the final amplifier?Tnx | |
| I'm New To Vinyl - Which Turntable Should I Buy? Good advice and recommendations, Guys, thanks.In addition to my Krell HTS 7.1 preamp/processor, I believe I will need a "phono pre-amp" or "phono stage" in my system? Will this be connected to my existing pre-pro in a pass-thru mode? | |
| I'm New To Vinyl - Which Turntable Should I Buy? I am somewhat unfamiliar with the analog terminology; but I assume that "cart" means cartridge?Regarding stands and isolation... Is a wall stand the preferred method, or are floor stands better? Thanks. | |
| I'm New To Vinyl - Which Turntable Should I Buy? Yes,The tentative $2K budget I established is for 'used' gear and does not include phono stage or cleaning items. The budget is certainly not cast in stone and can be adjusted either way. I realize a significant investment will be needed for album... | |
| Is There A Moveable Base To Easily Voice Speakers? Yes, I forgot to mention....The floor surface is a low cut carpeting (sort of like a berber). | |
| Mark Levinson 33H vs Musical Fidelity KW Mono Amps Rugyboogie -That's about as good a comparison as one can get. To expand your comment one step further. . . How much difference is between the 33 and 33H, relative to power, slam, and occaisional aggressive listening periods? | |
| What Is Best Monoblocks For Around $10,000 Used? Karmapolice- re: Krell 450 McxBy 'highly regarded' I should have explained better. That is not from reviews, but from general reaction. Many place these on a higher standard. If they are not exceptional amps, perhaps that may be why there are not ... | |

| What room treatment or treatments... I have a room that's 20'x20' with a few open walls and a 21' high ceiling. A real tough room for audio, no matter how good the gear. Any suggestions for this room?Thanks | |
| Budget amp suggestions for Totem Model 1? Here's what I have in my bedroom system and it sounds absolutely wonderful: Totem Model 1 with Audio Refinement Pre2DSP pre-pro. My original amp here was the Audio Refinement Multi-5, because this room also does a bit of home theater, too. At 125 ... | |
| What Is Best Monoblocks For Around $10,000 Used? .Worldcat - You are correct. CITADEL's are hard to find. However, with their modest power rating of 425>8 and 650>4 ohms, they don't seem to have the beef of amps with larger power supplies when used with speakers of lower impedance. My Clas... |
