| MOON I-5 versus KRELL KAV 400XI I am auditioning this integrated now, and I wouldn't characterize it as cold sounding at all. Typical modern day Krell if you ask me. Powerful, honest, big, and in regards to this particular piece a tremendous value. It is however a typical solid ... | |
| speakers for krell 400xi "(High-powered amp. w/High efficiency speakers). "If your talking about B&W your way off...Impedance swings are what you need to look at, not the 90db they would have you believe in their literature. I wouldn't categorize any B&W as high e... | |
| VTL ST-150 w/ B&W Going today to listen to it on both sets of speakers...I brought my DAC with me so I can get an authentic feel for it. Considering I have the 5.5 and they have that I will basically be listening to exactly what I would potentially buy. I will post... | |
| VTL ST-150 w/ B&W Verity's are very special, especially the Parsifal. What I am trying to accomplish is a simple system, so your suggestion of an integrated is a good one and has been explored. But I want as much power as I can afford on whatever speaker I choose, ... | |
| B&W 805S vs Wilson Benesch ARC vs Dynaudio S1.4 This is the most foolish statement I have seen yet: "Here's on Outlook! How can someone be thinking about purchasing a new pair of speakers, and prior to doing so already questioning resale value? Especially if money is not a matter."So when you b... | |
| VTL ST-150 w/ B&W davt-what about the st 150 for the 805s? What were you impressions of the 185s? | |
| VTL ST-150 w/ B&W Thanks Dennis...I am moving away from being worried about losing bass, the magic you get from tubes in other areas is just totally worth it. The single most important attribute to me at this point in my audio career is undoubtedly midrange. I like... | |
| VTL 6.5 vs VTL 7.5 Also a different grade of caps in the 7.5 as compared to the 6.5 and the 7.5 I believe has a sort of floating circuit board where it is somewhat decoupled from the chassis. 7.5 is tops. | |
| Rockport Mira and Mira Monitors Jfz-good point, I didn't give a ton of detail. remember though these are monitors so running them with an integrated makes perfect sense. I wouldn't run an integrated on most of the other stuff Andy offers. | |
| Rockport Mira and Mira Monitors One problem is the Gryphon is $12k | |
| If boulder is tops what is second tier? Maybe Boulder suggested that Cables do nothing so that you can save your pennies to be able to afford their equipment. Lord knows it is expensive. : ) | |
| Any Boulder pre/power amp users here? Anybody listen to the 865 yet? Curious to know how it sounds. | |
| Help Choosing B&W Speakers Can anyone say clipping? Dangerous stuff, and those little teeny weeny power supplies in a receiver just don't cut it. | |
| Rockport Mira and Mira Monitors Ok, something I want to ad to this thread now as grow more and more serious about buying these speakers..If you were looking to create a simpler more refined system, I say simpler in the context of what I own now-a 400cx Krell, VTL Tube Preamp, B&... | |
| Rockport Mira and Mira Monitors They are going to be in transit to certain dealers very soon. My dealer told me two to three weeks and that was over a week ago. So it should be soon. I may bring my DAC in there and give em a listen. |
