| That sound is right for me. I had a pair of Valencia's for awhile. Traded them for a pair of Madrid's. | |
| That sound is right for me. And if you need to add an active tube crossover for the Valencia's then get an old Audio Research tube crossover and another Shindo amp for the Altec 811 horns. Me, I'd just use the stock Altec speaker crossover. | |
| That sound is right for me. Buy a Shindo preamp and amp. Then a pair of Altec Valencia's. This is what esteemed Stereophile reviewer the late Art Dudley used at home. Along with a Linn Sondek and Garrard 301 turntables. He was an analog guy! | |
| Accuphase E380 upgrade? A waste of money to get the E4000. Stay with the E380. | |
| High-end-turntables @detroitwing : Thank you for the heads-up! | |
| Classical music newbie needs your suggestions The symphonies of British composer Ralph Vaughan Williams as conducted by Sir Adrian Boult are worth exploring! Symphony No.2 the "London" is particularly beautiful! | |
| Classical music newbie needs your suggestions "The Symphony should be the World" - Gustav Mahler (1860-1910). The greatest symphonic composer who took the romantic vision into the Twentieth Century! You can’t go wrong with Leonard Bernstein’s conducting of any of the Mahler nine symphonies. I... | |
| Best sounding amp/preamp for Snell Type E/ll model speakers? I have a pair of Snell E's. Any combination of your preamps and amps will sound fine! No need for tube gear. | |

| All NEW T+A Solitaire S Series Speakers For 2022 : SPEAKERS Like NO Others ! @thyname : Not that many years ago I had money to burn! Spending five-figures on speakers is exorbitant! I should have bought another condo with that money! I can probably find a second-hand BMW M series for less than that. | |
| Kim Simmonds Has Passed @ 75. Wednesday I had the urge to listen to some Savoy Brown on CD. Coincidence? I started listening to them in 1968 with Blue Matter. A favorite band! Sorry to hear this! | |
| Not sure what to think or do... Speakers don't need hundreds of hours to reach peak performance. Do you have another pair of speakers on hand to check the Parasound amp? If there is nothing wrong it should reach optimum temperature in several hours. After that leave it on 24/7. ... | |
| Thoughts on Moving Up From Denafrips Terminator / GAIA DDC Ditch the streaming services and get a transport/CD's. Physical media is where it's at! Streaming services cannot be trusted to offer the best uncompressed audio files. You are at their mercy! They need to use compression to fit their files on the... | |
| Recapping Mark Levinson 33H monoblocks @adg101 +1! If the caps look good and sound is noise and distortion-free then continue to use the amp. As far as "better" that is a subjective opinion. SS amps have been transparent to the source for decades. If I had the ML 33H's I'd happily keep... | |
| Ayon CD-5s It is possible that the dealer installed a secondhand laser assembly that was already near its end of life. Laser assemblies have a life span of several thousand hours. Since you have already spent thousands on this CD player get it fixed! |
