| Number of yrs. to reach the finished line? Mitch2, I bet that Clayton & Vibe combo sounds great! I sense they are a great match and sound wonderful together. | |
| Should I bother to try a subwoofer? My post is pretty much is on point with you Nrenter. I think you speak truth! | |
| Is the most efficient speaker the best speaker? Rleff, I love mine and they will stay for a long time. It was a bit tricky getting the right amp however. I really got lucky finding that Sunfire Signature 600 as it seems perfectly suited for the M1's.I did several mods to the backplates that rea... | |
| Should I bother to try a subwoofer? Yes the Q series is front firing while the Strata III is a downward firing 10 inch driver.The smaller Q series is fine in the corner etc... Room placement on any sub is a matter of trial and error. Larger subs can overpower a room in the corner ho... | |
| Should I bother to try a subwoofer? The REL sub is fine and will give you a taste of what a sub can do when set up properly. It is down firing and smaller, so closer to a corner is OK, but my suggested set-up could yield better results.Knowing your room size etc... would help greatl... | |
| Should I bother to try a subwoofer? Yes, get a sub and set it up as others have said here. Keep the volume low and cross it over low - no higher than 60 htz and 40-50 would be even better.The stage will open up just as Teajay stated on the first post. Please read his post again. He ... | |
| Best Tube Pre-Amp under 4K Ok, I have owned the CJ LS16 Premier MKI on two different occasions as I liked it a great deal. Based on my experience I know of at least 3 preamps that are better sounding today. Again, I have had some extensive experience with this CJ pre and th... | |
| Is the most efficient speaker the best speaker? One question for you Charles1dad,How would you describe the bass performance of your system? Are you able to get a nice foundation on all kinds of music? I like body or "meat on the bones' if you will. I share many of the same sonic goals as you a... | |
| Is the most efficient speaker the best speaker? Agreed Charles1dad. Your system is awesome and I have always had an interest in both your amps and preamp. Very nicely put together. | |
| Is the most efficient speaker the best speaker? Charles1dad"But,to each his own"Triode , words of wisdom. The low power amp/high efficiency combination seems to more sucesfully present the flesh and blood, living breathing presence that`s so convincing. This ability to consistently create such ... | |
| Is the most efficient speaker the best speaker? Triode needs to hear better non-flea tube amp powered systems.They do exist!I also like SET amps and high efficiency speakers as they can sound quite good also. | |
| Is the most efficient speaker the best speaker? I have been reading this thread with much interest. I greatly respect Ralph/Atmasphere and have always learned from his posts and others on this thread.I must say my experience flies in the face of saying a low efficiency speaker can't play to sou... | |
| Is the most efficient speaker the best speaker? My experience has been the opposite, but the answer to your question is no. My Soundlab speakers are very in-efficient, but are the best sounding speakers I have owned.The key is the right, properly matched, amp and speaker combo!No way to say one... | |
| Speakers free of grain, glare and steel? Silverline speakers are what you want. Sonata II'2 can be had at $2000 or under.Dali Grand speakers can also be had for under $2000, but hard to find used. Both seem to fit exactly what you are looking for. | |
| Number of yrs. to reach the finished line? Forgot to mention 32 years at this hobby. |
