| Maggie 3.6 vs. Talon Khorus? Hello again....I did not mean to imply I found the Khorus to have more body than the Maggies. On the contrary as I find the Maggies to create a much bigger 3D presentation which has much to do with why I am quite the Maggie fan. But with a swap fr... | |
| Maggie 3.6 vs. Talon Khorus? Hello,I have owned the Khorus for about 5 months now. Previously I owned Maggie 3.3s for about 3 years. No doubt the differences between the 3.3 and the 3.6 is minimal vs the Khorus vs Maggie sound.The Maggie sound/experience is quite unique to ju... | |
| Platforms: granite, marble, maple or other? Thanks guys....I will continue to keep an open mind when it comes to tweaks. Ever since I borrowed an NBS Master interconnect and picked my jaw off the floor when it trounced a handful of other cables (Audioquest, Cardas, Transparent, Straighwire)... | |
| Platforms: granite, marble, maple or other? Garfish, it was not that I am a believer or disbeliever here. But from all my experiences with "upgrading" my audio and HT systems, a piece at a time, after listening back and forth with and without the new item, it is often not as big a differenc... | |
| Platforms: granite, marble, maple or other? Hello.....You actually heard an improvement in the sound of your system when you put this maple board under your amp? Please share what differences were heard and how many times back and forth you went to confirm these improvements actually existe... | |
| Talon Khorus - Why So Many So Cheap? I am another audiogon member who got a great deal here on a demo pair late last year. In the $10k-15k range, there are so many choices that I suspect I would ultimately find a speaker I would prefer.....for one minor reason or another. But when it... | |
| Unsettled and considering changing stuff I have a couple ideas: 1) the Grado Sonata is a very good tracker and quite good in the bottom and mids but has virtually no life, harmonic richness nor 3D in the top frequencies. So many MC cartridges would definitely bring on more life to the mu... | |
| Giving up on Power Race, and going SET? Gosh how nice this would be for us Magnepan diehards. But we continue to chase the holy grail of high power amps to get these to sing. | |
| Any Bat VK-31SE owners out there...? I just recently traded my ARC LS5 III for a VK30SE. And I compared both of these to the 31SE and an Atmasphere MP3 (what a huge disappointment!) at the local dealer here in Minneapolis. I will not go into the details how the ARC or MP3 compares to... | |
| The best hybrid amp? Wasn't this thread about hybrid amps? I thought the Music Reference amps were tubes (input and output stages) ... and I was unaware that PS Audio did anything in the tube world. | |
| The best hybrid amp? The Counterpoint SA and NPS series were phenomenol. I just got my NPS400 upgraded by Michael Elliot and the sound of this amp is so incredible. Hard to find a more coherent tonal balance and natural presentation in anything close to the price. The... | |
| Experience with Audio Research SDP-1 I disagree with Brauser. The SDP1 is a great product for driving a pair of rear speakers for audio only. I would not want a HT preamp/processor to botch up what I worked so hard to attain for my front channels. And the rear channels with the SPD1 ... | |
| transport w best detail retrieval and 'weight' I second that one Subaruguru. Having no experience with Electrocompaniet gear before, I heard the EMC1 2 weeks ago in a dealer showroom. CD playback was so incredible. I was so impressed I bought the DAC. I now will try different cables between th... | |
| Speakers with Audio Research LS25MKII & VT100MKIII Why is it that the ProAcs always pop up when ARC gear is mentioned? If these speakers are voiced with ARC gear, fine.....but who cares! And why these speakers are so expensive (other than imported markup) is beyond me.I had the ARC LS5III with the... |
