Mag 3.6R or 20.1 , Sanders & Montana EPS2 Jonk78, Have you heard Martin Logan Spire or Summit x? If so how do they compare to the Sanders? On paper they look similar. I thought both the Spire and Summit had GREAT detial with some what laid back highs. You might really like them. Used spir... | |

Noob Planar Speaker Advice Needed I have never heard Eminent Technology but have heard other models from Martin logan and Magnepan.Martin Logan:I found that for the Martin logan Summit x and Spire sound very good. The Spire seemed like a very good buy. They are fast and very clean... | |
What amps for B&W 804 and HTM2? I have used Rotel 1072 which is class D on a pair of 703s and it did a really good job on the bass. McIntosh and Classe' both sound good with B&W but there might be "better" buys out there. If you are not super picky you may be able to get awa... | |
Speakers that sound like Grado headphones? Which grado and what is your price range? What part of the sound do you like?Most good brands (thiel,Wilson, B&W, Focal,dynaudio, etc) will out class your grados. Grados are bright and forward with little bass extention. But they are fast and ... | |
Dynaudio C1 with more impact There is a pair of Dynaudio C2s on audiogon for $5500 used. They would most likely fit your room better than the C1. | |
Dynaudio C1 with more impact I agree with Fin1bxn. $6000 is a lot of cash and even more if you look on the used market. Monitors do a lot of things well but they just don't have the bass slam/punch I think you are looking for. There are exceptions (Wilson duettes come to mind... | |

Polk LSI15 compared to Paradigm Studio 100 V4 I have head both. The Polk was on a reciever (denon I believe) and the Paradigm was in Arcam preamp/amp (don't know the model). It was also a while ago so take my coments with a grain of salt. The sound quality is comparible and it really comes do... | |
any reasons NOT to buy a peachtree nova? Buy from Crutchfield, thy have 30 days no question asked return policy. I had one and thought it sounded pretty good. I bought it for the bedroom system and it had more than enough power to get things moving. My main issues (only issue really) was... | |
new Magico speakers the Q5 I don't know about pricing as I have never heard magicos... but there are a lot of brands that are in the same price range (Kharma and Tidel to name a few) and there are not mass threads wining about there prices. Then there are other brand that s... | |
new Magico speakers the Q5 Looks awesome but I am sure it is WAY to rich for my blood. Maybe this will inspire some of you lucky V2 and V3 owners to sell your stuff so I can afford it lol... | |
spakers for various genres You are doing the right thing by getting out and listening. Don't let people tell you that because you listen to rock you need extra bass or highs etc. Rock is VERY demanding (much like classical). I have found that if a speaker gets rock right it... | |
Just when I thought digital could not match analog Dbaudiolabs,Good to see manufactures jumping in. I might have come off harsh but I truly want to see all small business do well (especially audio manufactures and dealers). I am just jaded because I hear lots of good talk about USB and in all the ... |
