| Matching Speakers to amp George. That old parasound will crumble in camparison to the newer hypex and icepower amps...Parasounds are pretty, but very underwhelming in everything else, wayyyy overhyped...I’d go back to a gfa adcom before getting another parasound.to OP...y... | |
| Matching Speakers to amp Georgehifi is totally incorrect with his response.I have dynaudio focus 160s being driven by a stellar s300, with a naim nac 202 preamp. The bass is endless, and the amp absolutely SINGS with these tough to drive dyns which have a nominal impedanc... | |
| Integrated amp + dac for Focal I think you should look into Naim for this...either supernait 2 or separates. | |
| Looking for a warm sweet speaker Dynaudio... i've only had the focus line but both pairs very warm and listenable for hours on end - especially when properly paired with the right amp. | |
| Looking for any feedback on the PS Audio Stellar amps I have the s300Its the best amp I’ve owned, over Luxman, adcom, maranta. It needs a good quality preamp to Perform at its best. Unbelievable power and sound quality for the price. | |
| What's happened to the used high end market recently?? Sales are tough....:0( Everything comes back around.It’s going to be cool to see what happens with dsp. There are so many things that can be done with it. I’m looking forward to the endless tweeks that a system of 10 self powered “audiophile” quality dsp enabled speaker... | |
| Best sounding compact integrated amp < $2k? I’ve powered my dyn focus 160s with everything, including the new ps audio stellar amps. The system is in a small room about 12’ x 15’.I just bought a used naim nait 5i2 and hooked it up...never looking back. Hands down the best sound I’ve ever he... | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic So, If i apply a polymer to some of the contacts in my system, i'll hear improved clarity, balance and focus that continues to improve over the span of 8 weeks? Have there been any reviews posted by known and respected names in the audiophile indu... | |
| SS Integrated Amplifier that would sound good with the PSB Synchrony One B ps audio stellar M700 is what i'm stepping up to from my stellar S300.Not sure what the amp classification is called, but it's pretty amazing sound, right in your wheelhouse price wise. | |
| Trade dynaudio focus for Sonus Faber? I keep wanting to try some floorstanders. | |
| A lot of hype about PS Audio, deservedly so ? I got their Stellar S300 a month ago...it's incredible...really. I didn't know an amp could make such a huge difference in sound and I was coming from a solid state luxman beast.I'm trading up for two M700 monos and their working with me, getting ... | |
| Moving on from Parasound A21 (maybe?) I may get tarred and feathered here but I’m going to suggest trying a newer amp tech. I’m breaking in my ps audio stellars and they’re amazing...I’ve had luxman, marantz, NAD and Adcom amps running my dynaudios in the past and I’ll say honestly th... | |
| Adcom? I've always had a big adcom amp lying around for spare bedroom use or something. They were my first intro in to good sound...a good starting point for people who love to listen to music. The early stuff like gfa 555 and gtp preamps are bulletproof... | |
| Please suggest bookshelf with best bass response under $4000 pr. I just got focus 160s. They’re discounting heavily now if you can find new at a dealer. Huge bass, incredible sound and imaging. | |
| KEF LS50... The ultimate anal-ytical speaker for living rooms? I just got focus 160 brand new for about 1/2 their normal price. There are deals to be found because they’re discontinuing the Focus line I believe.I trailed B&W (cm something?) Kef LS50 and Dyns...The Dyns have the sound I love... |
