| Speakers for SET 8 Watt 300B system? I am a bit suspicious of "black hole" audio companies, (Charney) that are unreachable, information only goes in one direction. I emailed them so many times with zero response. | |
| Listening Room @immatthewj You must not be living in the same world I am, @audioguy85 . I fear this will spiral into a political vortex quickly. I have never see spending at this level, stores are full. restaurants are full, flights are full, and every 2 w... | |
| Tracks that bring out the best of YOUR digital system @llg98ljk sorry for not being clear. I agreed with you. I meant audiomen's post was strange about how much you MUST spend | |
| Focal v Wilson your amp will drive a lot of speakers. Maybe all of them. The question is synergy, and what your ear enjoys the most. I wouldn't start with the most expensive pairing, at the top of your budget, how would you know you wouldn't be happy with a spea... | |
| Restored Dual vs. Restored Technics what do you get with the auto that you don't get with the semi-auto? I think the biggest weakness of the Dual is how it starts playing, the zigzaggy weirdness which is prone to break. I can't stand it. I personally prefer 100% manual tables. As ... | |
| How often, and how, do you clean your stylus? I buy a new stylus every week. New ones are usually come clean. If only I had known there was a way to clean them? | |
| Focal v Wilson @edelbby speakers are very personal. I do believe you can get fantastic speakers for 3K easily, especially used. these are the ones I would audition: Dynaudio, Totem, Fyne, Harbeth, Revel, Paradigm. These are great values, $ for $ | |
| Focal v Wilson here are some 20K speakers >>>> https://speakerchoices.com/ | |
| subwoofers I bought a (2) splitter for this as well, worked fine. | |
| Tracks that bring out the best of YOUR digital system @llg98ljk strange post indeed. What does it have to do with the post? Luckily I am ignorant and clueless enough to enjoy a 3 figure system :) | |
| Tracks that bring out the best of YOUR digital system M Ward and The Be Good Tanyas always sound like they are in the room, and kicking boxes on the floor. | |
| KEF LS50 Meta @vthokie83 that's a great story. I do think highly of the Buchardts. However, buying new speakers was my biggest mistake. I spent an enormous amount on my speakers and I could have saved 50% if I had bought used. And I could have spent that on ano... | |
| KEF LS50 Meta whether or not these are audiophile speakers KEF is one of the largest speaker manufacturers. I'd say it's a brand across inexpensive consumer products to high end audiophile speakers, from 500 to 50K. Strictly speaking a $1500 speaker would f... | |
| Requesting opinions about 4 specific amplifiers For me, Parasound power amp didn't pair well with Dynaudio. Simaudio is a fantastic choice but way pricier. You will find more JC5 on the used markets than the other ones, so you could add a few other, niche brands to your list? | |
| Vintage Turntable Recommendation there are a lot of 80s' Duals out there, including on shopgoodwill.com. Don't be fooled by the price, the sellers who ask $4-500 may have "from estate sale" never tested items that you can buy from original or second owners for under $250. There a... |
