Tannoy Differences
Thanks folks....tough decision. Room dimensions The room is about 12x20....although they could be in a different room next year 
Pass Labs XA60.5 experience?
As a general guideline, what sensitivity should a person be looking at matching these with? Over 90db at minimum? 
What are your general thoughts of B&W speakers
I would describe them as clinical (I had CM series). They didn't have the "soul" I was looking for. They are like Volvo, they're safe, they get the job done, but they're kinda plain....IMO. 
Looking for opinions on Tannoy Prestige line.
Good point. I do notice they have the port bungs, but still more tweaking. 
Looking for opinions on Tannoy Prestige line.
I've been contemplating either the definition (DC8) or the Prestige Turnberry to go with a Pass XA60.5 I like the sound and look, and the only ones that are really big, are the very top end Prestige line. The rest are what I would call average to ... 
Tannoy Turnberry SE Imaging and Breaking In
Anyone ever compared to the Definition (DC10 or DC8T)? Wondering what the sound differences would be. 
Joule Electra vs Pass Labs
The room I have today, will not be the same room next year, and most likely the year after. I currently don't own speakers, but are leaning towards Totem (Merlin are to much). My music is rock, but I don't play it real loud. I notice a lot of peop... 
Speakers than can run 2 different amps
Thanks guys. Now that I know what it's called, I am able to do more reaserch. With that being said, it's sounding like it might be a bit to complex for me to figure out. 
Enough SET Power for Rock and Roll
I haven't had the pleasure of hearing the Franks, but I'm consdering them. It's hard to fathom 8 watts having a lot of bass....I'm not doubting anyone's claims it's just hard to wrap my head around that statement. Which is why I thougth about goin... 
What convention/show should I attend in 2012?
So with Vegas over with, what other choices are there? The rocky mtn is a long ways away in October. 
Coincident Frankenstein SET and Avantgarde
What is the bass like with the Franks? I realize it won't be solid state, but these are only 8 watts afterall. 
Quicksilver V4 vs Manley Snappers
Thanks for all the responses so far. There are no dealers (of any sort) where I live so this process is being done blind. I was on the fence, knowing I probably can't go wrong either way, and that is the sense I get from people here. My mind is te... 
Quicksilver V4 vs Manley Snappers
I listen to mostly rock....speakers are to be determined 
Need more plugs
^Thanks. I'm limited for adding more plugs (I put this one in the floor)....but will talk with a different electrician. 
Joule - Electra: Just How Hot??
I have a 16" space, so minus 9 or 10", it leaves me with 6-7". With the exception of a Prima Luna & Mcintosh dealer, I have no other tube dealers for quite a number of miles. I am basically buying blind. I had identified Joule Electra & Ma...
