| Curl or Pass Both phono pre amps you mentioned are built by incredible talents you would probably need to hear them in your system to decide between them. Pass and Parasound are responsive to calls so you could contact them with questions. I haven't heard eith... | |
| Speaker upgrade for classical music Another Magnepan recommendation here. My friend who played in an orchestra and has an amazing system of his own always loved hearing my 1.7i now upgraded to 3.7i and would say it was the most realistic sound he ever heard. I'm using these in a 12 ... | |
| Best integrated for my needs???? The Pass int 250 is a great choice with power to spare. You really need to listen with your speakers to find the sound you'll enjoy. | |
| What did you make for Christmas? Making other people in the world happy by donating the money I would have spent on audio gifts to feed the hungry in Brazil and Ethiopia, a truly great buzz better than any toys I would have bought. | |
| Speaker suggestions under 4k You might be surprised I have 3.7i in a 12 x 15 room and they sound amazing I previously had the 1.7 which were also great. As long as you can get them about 36" out from the wall you're all set. | |
| Speaker suggestions under 4k If you have the space I don't think you can beat the sound of Magnepan 3.7i there's a used pair in the $3600 range you can add a sub later if needed.Happy listening. | |
| Leslie West has Passed On One of my favorite concerts West, Bruce and Laing in Boston Ma just a killer show.R.I P. | |
| New Magnepan .7s a Quickie Review Also where would you then place the 4 models above the .7 which all have superior sound. A reviewers dilemma. | |
| Recommendations for a modestly priced analog system You can probably use a Soundsmith moving iron cartridge with your built in phono pre, I'm using one myself and find them fantastic. | |
| Just an old fans memory lane. Chicago bands from the sixties... How about Chicago Transit Authority I loved the CTA album very well recorded, it still finds its way onto the tt all these years later. | |
| Overrated/Underrated Yes agreed why so many respond without reading what the op asked seems to happen every thread, he was asking regarding ic and cable.Underrated Canare 4S11Overrated any mega buck cables. | |
| Recommendation for a replacement speaker cable I use Canare 4S11 with a Pass, Maggie combo after reading another members review of them and they seem to give everything you could want in a cable. | |
| Name an artist that had a great debut album and a great final album As others have noted it's tough to top the Beatles and the Doors. | |
| HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL! Very nice same to all. We need that spirit more this year than ever. Make sure to do something for those less fortunate. | |
| Any advice? Parasound A21, Ayre V5xe, Benchmark AHB2, or Bryston 4B3? Ayre makes some very nice equipment too. All the brands mentioned are high quality so it will probably come down to personal taste, if you have the chance read all you can and give a listen. |
