| Atma-Sphere MA-1 tube rolling What George above said and / or try asking Ralph at Atmasphere himself. He writes here from time to time. | |
| Proac K6 Signature, Sonus Faber Amati Tradition,Verity Audio Amadis, Kharma DB-9 IMO it's a toss between the Proacs (as mentioned above) and the Kharma.The Kharma look much nicer, but in my book the Proacs will rock better. They are also slightly more sensitive -- an important consideration as you only have 60W on tap.Good luck! | |
| testing a crossover Sorry to state the obvious but, why not just take the xovers along with the schematic to your local eletrician who will solve the issue in a jiffy for a few quid -- if that:) There's a short somewhere in the tweet xover and that's tricky to identi... | |
| Integrated/Power Amp for Vienna Acoustics Mahler Interesting revival of an old thread! As a precurse to your quest and looking at your shortlists, here are some subjective comments. I would prefer the Vitus to the Gryphon 120, but I might prefer the 300 to the Vitus. The Vitus is very controlled... | |
| Is usb reclocking necessary? I find it is very helpful & useful, so much so that I daisy-chained two reclockers and enjoy much better clarity and dynamics. | |
| New Speakers $10K -$20K Taking into account room size and WAF, the undisputable choice seems to be the Sonus Faber Amati.The Legacy might be small for your room. Great speakers though. | |
| Does using XLR cables (double voltage output) mean I can use lower powered amplifiers? To your question: no you cannot use a lower powered amplifier.The amplifier’s maximum power rating is fixed, regardless of the interconnects used. Regards | |

| Genelec 8351b with 2x 7370 vs Sopra No2 vs Atc 50 ASL I can only offer my *subjective* opinion :) and add some considerations (you probably already know):First off, do try to listen to these speakers if you haven’t already, even if it’s not in your own space. You will get an experiental idea of each ... | |
| Any audiophiles in Israel or Europe here? @lou_setriodes I live in the EU and I can assure you that electronics (amps, dacs, etc), TTs, etc, are reasonably priced here by hi-end standards -- surprisingly so. Better still, dealers & manufacturers can be very accommodating when it comes... | |
| recommended power tube amplifier for vivid kaya 45 speakers Hi, nice speakers! Your amp choices are very solid and my rating for driving those speakers would be: CAT Octave Jadis.I had Jadis amps and love the sound. However, IMO, the other amps will better match the Kaya 45s dynamcis and speed and FR. Anot... | |
| Cut lower frequency to help my bookshelf speakers Apparently no-one caught on to the fact you have two SVS subs. Probably the simplest option is to connect the pre output to the SVS and connect the SVS rca output to the ML and fro, there to the Dynaudios. Start cutoff frequency at 80Hz and take i... | |
| Is your heart filled with a love of music, or something else? I agree, we should be grateful for all the music available to us at the push of a button -- and I am. I love exploring my music collection and I also enjoy fiddling with the system from time to time -- a footer here, a slab under the speakers, etc... | |
| endgame Amp for my Audiovector R3 Arrete Have you tried Benchmark amps? They are about 6000 euro and excellent performers.Alternatively, you could consider a Symphonic Line stereo amp: it’s wide bandwidth with excellent driving ability (a bit like the Soulution), without pronounced hi fr... | |
| Dysphoric audiophile agoraphobia @Celtic :) Never leaving one’s abode does not assure complete insulation and safe conduct .......Indeed! Also consider the perilous instability of the power grid wich regularly rears its ugly head and mercilessly squashes our carefully erected dyn... |
