Can a Quality Full Range Speaker be the Limiting Component in a system?
Well, $50k speakers in half a million dollar system is not something that I would do unless there are no other speakers that I would like more. Bought new, I mean. When buying used all the proportions may go to hell, you could get $300k speakers f... 
Great music few are aware of. Any genre.
Also, Tony Scott - Music for Zen Meditation-. German record is preferrable.

My experience is the same. Unless there is a big room change or you want a very different sound or start listening to the kind of music that your speakers are not up to, orchestra music as an example, good speakers don’t need to be replaced. 
What makes tape sound better than vinyl ?
Digiheads are not welcome here. Even if they are of divine origin.

Do you mean in terms of resolution or other performance aspects ?In terms of resolution they might almost always be the weakest link, there is probably quite a signal loss when it is converted. The better the source and electronics the better spea...

Octave v70se OR v80se
danimaz, are you sure about V70SE, this looks too low ?$9500 for V80SE is about the same as VAC Sigma integrated. 
What makes tape sound better than vinyl ?

What is the current price of V80 SE without black boxes ? 
Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great???
Trelja, thank you. I heard that Jadis has a cult following, just as Lamm. Different amps. I always think of a high-end set-up as the one with monoblocks.

The purpose of this thread is to call attention to the tape and tape machines. Whatever anyone has to say. I think, many agree that there is something that makes the tape sound more natural. As for the cut-off frequency extremes that somehow make ... 
Amplification for Wilson Audio Sasha on the cheap
Michael Fremer drives Wilsons with DartZeel, he must know. If that's too much, old Krells should do it too, yeah. 
What makes tape sound better than vinyl ?
Let's return to real tape machines - open reel decks.In addition, cartridges color the sound like hell. Even if vinyl was better you cannot fully make use of it - no cartridge will be able to extract all the information from the groove and present... 
Octave v70se OR v80se
Yes, since dealers have to buy their demos, they'll buy 70 SE and say that 80 SE is even better. I might've simplified it a little, but it's hard to buy what you can't audition even when the models are close enough to each other. Anyway, $3500 is ...

Orpheus10, I rate this quite low. And she can't really dance.
