| Dynaudio Special 25 vs Totam Mani 2 Fully agree with Whknopp0713, my vote will go for the Mani-2, it's the best speaker I have owned. The Mani-2 uses Dynaudio 6.5 drivers, in an isobarik configuration. The bass is incredible. As for power, the Dynaudio aren't that great either, mayb... | |
| opinions on linn classic I have used the Classik with Katans speakers, great sound.You can biwire your Tukans as it has two set of speaker terminal per channel. You can also add a sub or amp using the set of preamp outputs. If you buy an used Classik-T, read the Stereophi... | |

| Linn Aktiv cards for tri-amp LK140/Ninaka Hadfieldling,You can start your Aktive setup with just two amps, one for the treble and the other for the bass. You will have to runthe bass units with a biwire cable. The best way will be to use Linn K-600 (3 pairs inside), one pair for the trebl... | |
| Linn OEM Power Cables I agree with Whknopp0713, on my Klouts(toroidal transformer)PS Audio Mini-Lab work wonders, on my Ikemi and Kairn-pro (switch mode power supply)there was no difference. | |
| Paradigm Studio S-40 vs. Totem MANI-2 The Totem Mani-2, by a wide margin, and the Paradigm is a fine speaker. The Paradigm is easier to drive but if youramp has plenty of power the Totems lower efficiency won'tbe an issue. As for the price gap between them, I sold mineshere for $2k, c... | |
| Linn players withstanding the rigors of time Jeff, I feel the difference is in the midrange, particularywith acoustic recordings. On the other hand, you will only notice it on high quality cds, record quality is what I mean. Like Mikelavigne states, the difference in price between an Ikemi a... | |
| Linn players withstanding the rigors of time Nealhood, I own both, an Ikemi and a Genki. As far as to the sound, the Genki will give you about 95% of the Ikemiperformance at half the price. The Ikemi will give you anmetal tray, and balanced output, if you have use for them,and dual digital o... | |

| klout vrs 5105 The Klouts by far is a better amp. I have an Ikemi, Kairn-Pro, 4 Klouts and Keltiks. I plan to buy a AV-5103 and use 2more Klouts I own, Aktive center channel (Ekwal) and pasivesurround (Katans). Since you will be changing all 4 amps you might wan... | |
| I need advice/opinions for a nice bedroom system Linn Classik. For speakers listen to the B & W CM-2, they sound great with the Classik. | |
| Replacing/Upgrading AC Outlets I do agree with Zikhmark & Chuck on the PS Audio units. They are a high quality, no nonsense piece. They are isolated ground as oposed to some "high end" units that cost about $300.00 a piece, which aren't. Isolating the ground will lower the ... | |
| crimping vs soldering Follow Timo's advise an go to Cardas web page, there are lots of information in the FAQ. If you will solder, I recomend the WBT silver solder, it's melts at a low temp soyour cables insulation won't burn. |
