| What speakers for 10k? Go for it Jug... Talk about a bargain... Vienna Speakers are uberperformers even if you got them new at full price... Beethoven Grands for $2K are total no brainers... They will take what Mozarts are good for and multiply it by 5! Let us know how ... | |
| New Esoteric P02 D02 Excellent info Tom... Thank you so much! G. | |
| New Esoteric P02 D02 Hy Zephyr, very interesting that your findings on filter selection for D02 are consistent with my preference on K-01... May I ask how S_DLY2 and S_DLY1 differ on D-02?Saluti, G. | |
| New Esoteric P02 D02 Hi Tom, This is good to know... does this mean that Scott is Esoteric Sales/Marketing/Operations manager for Esoteric at Integra? | |
| New Esoteric P02 D02 Hi Tom, what is Scott Sefton's function/position at Integra? | |
| New Esoteric P02 D02 Hi Zephyr, I have no experience on the combo units at all... My findings are based on K01 only.... By logic only I imagine that if you set filters on D-02, no filters should be set on P-02... But it might be best for you to consult Integra/Esoteri... | |
| New Esoteric P02 D02 Hi Zephyr, my experience on K-01 first edition was that each filter variant required its own break in time of about 500 hours. For my own preferences, S_dly2 met the right balance of resolution and musicality.... S_dly1 was more tube-like, while D... | |
| New Esoteric P02 D02 Hi Zephyr, may I suggest to give S_dly2 a spin. On K-01 at least, I found it to be more extended than S_dly1, with greater staging/imaging, and equally musical.G. | |
| D-SONIC SOA Class-D Core Amps. The best Class-D ? In general, as class D amplifiers are 85% to 96% efficient, they run cool to moderately warm to the touch. There are few exceptions, like the Rowland Continuum 500 -- since withdrawn, which are toasty to the touch. | |
| Merrill Audio Veritas The Merrill Veritas is a fine amp indeed! Here is my review on Positive Feedback:http://positive-feedback.com/Issue68/merrill_audio.htm | |
| Amp Recommendation for Vienna Acoustics Timo, on tube amps, you should look for an amp delivering at least 200W into 8 Ohms, increasing to at least 300W into 4 Ohms.Regards, G. | |
| Amp Recommendation for Vienna Acoustics I cant say enough good things about the Bel Canto REF1000 Mk.2 (A.K.A. REF1000M) monoblocks driving the challanging Vienna speakers. I recommend these monos very highly if you are seeking an extremely musical result with just a touch of warmth T... | |
| Amp Recommendation for Vienna Acoustics Hi Timo, I am happily addicted to Vienna Acoustic speakers... First the Mahlers V1.5, and now Die Muzik. Yet, I admit readily that Vienna speakrs work at their very best with relatively powerful amps delivering a highish damping factor.... Lest th... | |
| What speakers for 10k? Hi Jughead, the current model of the Baby Grands is called Baby Grand Symphony AEdition... Make sure that if you get a new pair, the vendor does not give you the previous model instead.Inevitably, a new pair of Beethoven Baby Grands will need to b... | |
| What speakers for 10k? Jughead, Mahlers are out of production, hence you will not find a new pair. With a little bit of patience you will eventually find a set on Audiogon or other source.The current Vienna speaker in the same price range as Mahler is the Listz, also to... |
