| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. I think, the price is about right. Two years ago when I still had older Purist interconnects, I asked Jim of Purist what he would recommend to go significantly higher. He said - Poseidon. I eventually decided to go with Neptune, though it seemed t... | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. In any case, with Magico speakers I would go with copper wires only unless it is top of the line, then it could be silver or alloy as well, maybe. Your speakers are on a cooler analytical side of neutral.If you cannot afford Neptune you might cons... | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Sorry, 2 meters pair are $2034, 2.5 meters pair are about $200 more. | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Mike, no, don't look at the suggested retail prices, street prices are much lower. I checked two weeks ago with one dealer. Purist Audio Neptune speaker cables with spades 2.5 meter pair are $2050, brand new, not demo not return. | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Mike, I am not a technical person and can't judge the design from this point of view. You can talk to Jim Aud of Purist Audio, he replies quickly, and ask him any questions. He is a former NASA engineer specializing in underwater signal transmissi... | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Mike, you can call me names, but I read thru some threads on Audiogon, thought about it a little, and if I were to take a wild guess taking into account everything, I would say that unless you value ultimate high frequency extension at the expense... | |
| How to assess and quantify system improvement and changes? Art is not science let alone exact science. Or, if you wish, it might be a science, that is beyond our comprehension. So yes, human condition, condition we can live with, I think. | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Putting cost aside for the moment, it is interesting how to best match speaker cables. Though to both, of course, I think one should match them more to the speakers than to the amp. I would not go with either excessively warm cables or too cold, l... | |
| Do people really just not get it that their items are not selling... So they do it intentionally, it is just a different and opposite intention. | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Mike, sure it would make little sense to buy cables without already having the equipment.Best cables are often those that you cannot find used, especially for a reasonable price ! | |
| Many seem to be talking about their last system . Most of us can't afford or/and don't have enough will to jump from one system to another, so in reality it is almost always in a state of flux. Also, when you are after used equipment, certain pieces show up very rarely, and if that's what you rea... | |
| How to assess and quantify system improvement and changes? President Trump is 10% more beautiful than Chinese president but 1000% less so than French president Macron.Extrapolate this and you'll get scientific method par excellance. | |
| Many seem to be talking about their last system . Mark, you are right of course. But people are both rational and irrational, and I like both sides, unless it gets out of control. | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Mike, I think you could start a thread asking what others use with their Magico speakers. Foregone conclusion - most use quite expensive cables, and they don't do it for nothing. There is also a matter of sound preference, equally good cables will... | |
| Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics. Yeah, though some materials and labor are not inexpensive, it is mostly research and development when there is actually one, like Purist, Shunyata, Furutech and Tchernov, advertising and big profit margins. Dealers get them at half the list price ... |
