| Best Tube Amp For Sonus Faber? Or Pass XA-100.5? $6-7,500 Budget, Purchasing Used. Hi nightfall,one tube amp which i can very easily recommend and that will more than easily drive your S.Faber with glory are the Coincident Dragon 211PP MKII, but that would be outside your budget. The Pass XA-100.5 are very good contenders, but t... | |
| Psvane 300-B Tubes ? ? ? I use the Psvane WE300B on good quality SET amps, and I very very very highly recommend them. Nothing to criticize at all; the mids and highs are just the best i have ever heard. The only tubes that may beat them, and I also use them on another sy... | |
| Subwoofer for classical music listener I am a 50/50 jazz/classical listener, and understand what you mean. However, if i was in your case, I would not compromise and would have preferred to wait for more money to get myself a better amp or speaker, or both, and no subwoofer at all. T... | |
| 8K for a one-time listen? more seriously - no devialet for me, at all, none - seriously bad sound for the money - it doesnt make music, just 1 and 0 in good packaging and marketing. | |
| Speaker phase observation and question? Interesting !!! Would not know about the manufacturer's inverting phase on mids/highs, that you would have to ask or check it out with some tech guys.The results obtained with the bass are normal, and are you absolutely sure that your ears did not... | |
| Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables Wanted to try out so i finally did. I will keep my former cables (TelluriumQ SD) which are quite much better. These CT cables are good cables for sure - got lots of details, but generaly lacked PRaT, so took away some of the vitality and musicalit... | |
| “Invest” in Tekton? The Tektons are good, but to compare them just like that to 20k speakers is just not so straight forward. They should be compared to 20k speakers that are not really worth their price. It makes no doubt that with those small teams that know sound ... | |
| Best Class A Amp under $2,000 used? you wont get 250w classA anywhere. push a bit your budget if possible and get the Benchmark AHB2. It plays well above its price and is a near perfect audio tool. You will have everything you will need amp wise for the next 15 years. | |
| Hearing is believing?........power cables....... i was a non believer, until i heard. the trolls that dont hear it have either never tried or just cannot hear, and are uneducated to sound, or maybe they just throw their frustration on others because they dont own a decent system. | |
| Speaker recommendation for married couple Speakers will depend on your budget, amps and room size. But considering all +/- average, I would go for Tektons or for near perfect unbeatable sound beauty and balance for pounds/sound: XTZ Divine 100.33 http://www.xtzsound.eu/product/divine-100-33 | |
| Amplifier Upgrade Decision The Pass XA-60.8 would be too weak for your speakers.The Plinius is a good choice. The other better choices that I would look into are:1. A pair of Benchmark AHB2 in mono configuration. Save money for something else while getting a sound you may n... | |
| Ever Bought an Audio Product that was Stupid Good for the Money? XTZ Master M2. $1,600 - but worth way way more and as close to sound balance and perfection as a bookshelf speaker can achieve up to $10,000. No more produced, no world stock available, not a single one available on second hand market. One regret:... | |
| Best Tubed Preamp For A Warm, Rich Sound, Yet Still Detailed and Agile for that price, you get the Coincident Statement Line brand new, with 101D tube which you would want to upgrade to Psvane WE101D. Has it all, except remote. | |
