| Harbeth Experts Both the Quads and Harbeths are pretty neutral in terms of tonal balance with the Harbeths on the warmer side. Quads are more transparent and detailed. Imaging has more depth and more holographic. Bass is about the same on both speakers. It is a h... | |
| Harbeth Experts I tried the Nordost Blue heaven, Canare 4s11, ridge st audio Poeima and the nordost seem the most synergistic so far. Amps were Mc2275 and Arcam receiver. I actually find the tonal balance and smoothness of the Harbeth very satisfying. It is not t... | |
| Harbeth Experts What speaker cables work well with harbeth?i don't mean to highjack, i can use some help from fellow harbeth owners | |
| Pass Labs 250.5 vs Classe 2200 I used to own both. Yes. More details and smoother treble with pass. Bass is also better.Classe has the convience of a xlr se switch n front. | |
| Bridging Mono Mcintosh Mc2102 Jaybo,Do you get a better soundstage or better LR separation and better bass by going from one 275 to two 275s?Thanks | |
| Krell 400xi vs. BAT VK-300x vs. McIntosh MA6900 I owned both 400xi and mc 2275. Both are great. Krell has great base and detail but slightly dry sounding. Mac is much fuller sounding and the autoformer does a lot for the base for a tube amp. Overall prefer mcintosh for its timbre. | |
| Rotel 1068/1075 Separates or Arcam AVR350? this is an easy one. I used to own rotel separates which i sold for avr 350. There is beter performance in both HT and stereo. Go for it. | |
| Best sub for Quad 988 Velodyne DD12 is also good. It is not perfect and there are tradeoffs. I have mine 3 1/2 ft away from backwall but I find 5 ft better ( when family situation allows.) Would say 3 ft is minimal. Try sound treatment, too. | |
| Pass Labs XA- ".5" ??? The meter thing is sure weird. I have 87Db 4ohm speaker in a 25x 18 ft room and play at medium level. The x350.5 meter only moves when I play double bass or organ stuff very loud. I barely shakes a hair on loud orchestral passages. I think the met... | |
| Anyone else regenerating A/C? How does it compare to the shunyata hydra? | |
| power cords for Pass Labs Amps Terryakhan,What is the difference with the Dominus and the ESP? | |
| From Bryston to Pass X250.5 ? Significant improvement in all areas, I owned 4bsst, 150.5, 250.5 and 350.5. I prefer even 150.5 to bryston. | |
| Pass 150.5 vs. Pass 250.5 ? When I was comparing 150.5 and 250.5, I was using the Hovland HP 100 preamp and placette passive ( I use a Bat now), I also had a pass X1 which I used with 150.5 but not the 250.5. I love the pass amps but I prefer other brands for preamps ( Pass ... | |
| Pass 150.5 vs. Pass 250.5 ? I tried both 150.5 and 250.5 with diva utopia. Both drive it to adequate level. 250.5 has quite a bit more detail. The treble is slightly hotter with the 250.5 and the base was a little disintegrated with the midrange ( probably due to speaker sid... | |
| BAT pre + Pass amps? Output/Input sensitivity?? I've the 51se x350.5 combo with X01 cdp and Avalon speakers. I play music at negative 18 to 25 db of attneuation in the preamp. It should be no problems with Usher speakers. There are many setting to display volume in the preamp. The manual should... |
