| Proac question Heheheh. Oh yeah, I forgot about the extra dough-rei-me. | |
| ProAc Tablette Reference Eight Signature Bruce,I've never heard the Reference 8. Is it a smaller monitor like the Tablette 50 Signature? I've always wondered if the Ref 8 sounded closer to the Tab 50 than the 1SC.As far as sonic characteristics go, I think it comes down to a matter of ta... | |
| Proac question I believe all the drivers and crossover are different. I own Response 1SCs and Tablette 50 Signatures but have never had the chance to hear any of the Studio series. | |
| Powering a Passive subwoofer. Yes, class G amps are capable of putting up big wattage numbers, but they're like cars that put out a lot of ponies but have no low end torque. | |
| Best of both worlds? Ahh, I see. Yes, I think it's very possible to have the best of both worlds. | |
| Best of both worlds? I believe the Vandersteen 2Wq like the REL ST series, but unlike the Vandersteen V2W is meant to accept a high level signal from the speaker binding posts of your power amp.I'm not sure what you mean by best of both worlds though. | |
| Tubes or Cables to Tune Sound? I say whatever works best for you. Since cables and tubes can affect the overall sonic in similar and different ways depending on your system configuration I think experimenting with both is the key.I've had situations where changing tubes made al... | |
| Powering a Passive subwoofer. Your DIY sounds like a fun project. Which drivers did you use?I own an NHT SW3p passive sub and have been considering some DIY projects with the NHT 1259 driver it uses for a possible stereo sub set up. I have the NHT SA-3 amp with built-in crosso... | |

| Upper midrange glare prominence -- I've experienced midrange glare in the past that was ameliorated by adding Sonex panels on the side surfaces where first reflections took place. Toeing-in my monitors and a different amp that didn't have those same frequency prominances also lesse... | |
| Home Theatre Amp Suggestions I received a BAT VK200 last weekend I bought here on Audiogon. In my short experience I definitely feel this is my favorite amp.Right now, I happen to have a Pass Aleph 3, Blue Circle BC22, Bryston 4B and the VK200 and it's been fun comparing them... | |
| Good Subwoofer Amp I use a Bryston 4B rated at 250wpc. It runs fairly cool and has great control over my NHT 12" passive sub. The 7B would handle just about anything thrown at it. | |
| Putting in subs Once you do all the reading, you'll need to invest a lot of time experimenting and tweaking. | |
| Shipping between Canada and the States I think much of it is predicated on the declared value of items entering Canada and whether they are declared as a gift, a sale or for service. I've heard of exorbitant fees in some cases being tacked on to shipments to Canada. I shipped some smal... | |
| Shipping between Canada and the States Hey Phil, going from Canada to the US is much easier than from the US to Canada. There are import duties imposed by Canada wihch can hike the price of a sale. I plan on sending my Blue Circle gear to Canada for some mods, but need to get instructi... |
