| The best speaker you ever heard? Mostly used in recording studios. Very rare -- almost impossible to find. | |
| 300B SET Tube Amp recommendations anyone?? Metralla:Here's some good info on clipping:http://sound.westhost.com/clipping.htmI try to avoid clipping. The efficiency of my Tannoy DC's is above 100dB; and I drive them with four 300B SET amps, bi-amping through a Marchand external crossover. T... | |
| 300B SET Tube Amp recommendations anyone?? Dogpile:Audiofeil is right. Common 300B SET output is 7-8 watts. I wouldn't advise driving 92dB full-range speakers with a 300B SET amp, because you're gonna' clip and destroy the drivers eventually. | |
| Directional interconnect cables Acoustic Zen says the arrow points in the direction of signal flow, e.g., from CDP to pre-amp, from pre-amp to amps, from amps to speakers. | |
| speakers for classical music For orchestral, Tannoy 215 DMT II is the best I've heard. | |
| Active Speakers: The usual suspects .... Infinity Prelude MTSInfinity Intermezzo 2.6 with R.A.B.O.S.Stereophile Class 'A' loudspeakers | |
| 300b amps bettering the midrange of the Cary 300b Wavelength Cardinal | |
| Harshness in tweeters: the price of transparency? Try a professional studio speaker, e.g., Tannoy 215 DMT II, for transparency without harshness. Way better than speakers that cost 2-, 3-, 4-, or 5-times as much. | |
| Harshness in tweeters: the price of transparency? No, harshness is due to a flaw in the system. The natural sound of musical instruments is musical, not harsh. | |
| Which allround speaker ? Find a pair of Tannoy speakers with 15" dual-concentric drivers, e.g., Tannoy Churchill, 215 DMT II, etc. These are pretty much the best speakers around. You might be lucky enough to find a used pair in Europe. | |
| Nanotec Golden Strada Neotech is SOTA. Nanotec? Never heard of them??? | |
| Ideal speakers for Cary SLI-80? The Salks need lots of power to perform their best. Having owned the SLI-80, I know it wouldn't be a good match. | |
| Is there such a speaker...(loud but smooth)? The big Tannoys with 15" dual concentric drivers, e.g., Westminster or Churchill.Also, the Tannoy 215 DMT II professional studio monitor, if you can find one on the used market. | |

| Tannoy Speakers The big Tannoys with 15" dual concentric drivers are wonderful. The smaller ones are mediocre. |
