| Dynaudio Confidence C1 and Vivid V1.5 Thanks for your responses. I can audition the speakers in the New York area. How long have you had the C1s? To my ears, they are amazing speakers which create great intimacy. I see you have Simaudio electronics with the C1s. I know that's supposed... | |
| Dynaudio Confidence C1 and Vivid V1.5 Thanks for your response. It was what I expected to hear. I am a jazz lover and thus might still opt for the creamy midrange. And as you note, I'm not sure I can get used to the look of the Vivids. The c1s in Cherry with the silver stands will loo... | |
| Cary integrated vs. Rogue Cronus Magnum Thanks for your responses. I am familiar with the Cayin amps. I heard the 88. It has very nice sound but is underpowered for these speakers. I never heard the Cayin 100 and have heard good things about it, but is more than 1k more than the Rogue a... | |
| Review: Rogue Audio Cronus Tube amp Hi, I'm thinking of buying the Dynaudio Confidence C1 speakers, pairing them with Naim separates but also buying the Rogue Cronus Magnum if I wanted to hear a lusher sound. Did you buy the Rogue Cronus and the Dynaudio Contours? How did they sound... | |
| Naim or Octave with Dynaudio Confidence C1 Hi Ryder, Thanks for your thoughtful post. Unfortunately I am limited by the brands offered by my local Dynaudio dealer. In the best of all worlds, I'd love to hear the C1s with the Pass 150 watt integrated. But I can't do that because the only lo... | |
| Naim or Octave with Dynaudio Confidence C1 Ryder, Thanks for the post. What do you think you get in the 282 as opposed to the 202. But the price difference is significant, isn't it? I understand that the 250 would be a real improvement over the 200 but also at substantial increased expense. | |
| Naim or Octave with Dynaudio Confidence C1 The Naim separates with a Naim CD player are super musical. The most musical ss amps I've heard. I'd love to audtion the Naims against Octave. Unfortunaely, I'd have to go to Chicago to do that because no New York dealer is offering Octave at the ... | |
| Naim or Octave with Dynaudio Confidence C1 Hi Audioquest4life, Thanks for your very informative, kind posting. One question, have you ever auditioned Naim separates, and if so, how would you compare their sound to the Octave amp? Thanks. | |
| Naim or Octave with Dynaudio Confidence C1 Have you heard the Octave amps? If I liked the naim separates do you think I should just go with them? Thanks. | |
| Naim or Octave with Dynaudio Confidence C1 Thanks everyone. I haved nagged the Dynaudio guys about getting an Octave demo in my area. They haven't been able to do it yet. I have heard before that the C1s need a lot of power (and I'm not interested in the supernait -- it is too forward and ... | |
| Naim or Octave with Dynaudio Confidence C1 Hi, Thanks for your responses. I guessed right that you had heard the supernait. I'm not a fan of that amp -- it is too forward for me and not very refined. The separates are more laid back and much more refined but still with the Naim pace and oo... | |
| Naim or Octave with Dynaudio Confidence C1 Thanks for the response. A few more questions, if I may. What is the significance of black box? Where is your dealer? What kind of maintenance is involved with the Octave? What did you like better about the Octave sound? Did you listen to the Naim... | |
| Confidence c1 vs cremona auditor m vs proac d28 Hi, I too have not been a fan of sonus fabers, but three different dealers who sell both the sonus faber auditor m and the confidence c1, while praising the c1, thought that the auditor m was somewhat more musical and one described it as magical, ... |
