| Harbeth & VAC combo I used a Rogue Cronus Magnum with Harbeth SHL5+ and did not like the pairing at all. As a result of that experience, I swore off using Harbeth with tubes....until some Agon members encouraged me to give tubes another go. I recently switched from a... | |
| Why do Harbeth speakers have such a cult following I've used Acoustic Zen cables (Double Barrel Shotgun and Absolute) with Harbeth SHl5+, feel like they are both a great match. | |
| Harbeth & VAC combo How big is your room? | |
| Robert Lee recommends Triode Corp, but... @simao Have you tried rolling the preamp tubes on the LSA? I owned an LSA Statement and was really able to tailor the sound by tube rolling. I liked all of the following Amperex 7308 gold pin, Telefunken E88CC and Ediswan CV2492/6922. Jason | |
| New Wilson - Wamm Master Could it have been the music selection; the styles were completely different in each room? I don't recall the DAC being used in the small room with the Sabrinas. | |
| New Wilson - Wamm Master @knghifi I liked the Sabrinas, I would be curious to hear how they sound with two VAC Phi 200s run in mono. Jason | |
| New Wilson - Wamm Master I was also lucky enough to hear the Wilson/MSB demo at Fidelis AV. From a visual stand point the Alexx are definitely an acquired taste, but the sound was truly amazing. The soundstage encompassed the entire room and the sense of scale was really ... | |

| Your single favorite component Jeff Korneff 45 SE integrated amp; the best piece of gear I've owned. I wish i I didn't sell it. | |
| What are you using for ripping CDs? What media player do you use? I rip to uncompressed FLAC directly from the built in disc drive in my Antipodes DX; insert the CD and everything from there is automatic. Prior to that, like many others, I was using dBpoweramp for ripping. I still use it to convert audio file fo... | |
| Electronics for Harbeth, Especially Monitor 40 series @redwineaudio I experimented a bit this weekend with this config; it worked really well with my SHL5+. The depth of sound stage and the presence of the performers is really amazing. I also have three Argent Roomlens (one in between the speakers, a... | |
| Electronics for Harbeth, Especially Monitor 40 series @redwineaudio Hi Vinnie, how much toe-in do you have with your 40.1s in the configuration discussed above? Also, a LIO with DHT linestage sounds really interesting. I've owned one of your RWA 30.2 amps, I really enjoyed it. Jason | |
| Music Server @escritorjuan Hi Juan, great review. I currently have an L7 and thought your review of that device was spot on. I’m considering an upgrade to the Big 7, have you heard one in your system? Once you experience a great dedicated music server it’s rea... | |
| Pass INT-150 or Bryston b135 sst^2? I've got a pair of SHL5 + (great speakers) and have heard them with the Pass INT 150. For my personal musical tastes it was a very nice pairing, which I'd gladly use in my system. I've also owned LSA Statement and Musical Fidelity m6 500i amps, bo... |
