Best MONITORS availables Well speaking of monitors in general and not the specific brands you've mentioned, I own and truly love a pair of JMlabs Micro-Utopias. Great transparency and musicality, and really surprising bass. | |
Anyone experienced JBL's K2 S9800? If you haven't seen it there's a rave review of this speaker in HiFi+ magazine. I would guess the review is about a year old, it's a flat out rave so check it out. | |
More reports-How many corrupted CD-R's with time? Chazzbo dude you must be obsessed with CD-R's! Good luck with them and let me know how it turns out! | |
1000.00 to spend what would you buy? You should be able to find a used Bryston B60 integrated for around $7-800 or so. It's a truly great sounding little amp that puts out 60 watts per side and comes with that unbeatable, fully transferrable Bryston 20 year warranty. That leaves 2-30... | |
Power cord for my Portal Panache? Ryan,I put that exact MIT cord on my cd player and it sounds great! A really good deal for 60 bucks, try it both ways and see which you prefer. Happy listening! | |
Double sets of speaker binding posts on Krell ? Generally I beleive that if you can use four seperate cables for biwiring it's a good thing. It can be pricey in terms of wire but should give an upgrade in sound quality. | |
SME Model 10 How much should I spend on speakers? This is just me, but I would say first get the best source that you can, if to you that's the SME Model 10 then do it. However at that point I would suggest that rather than just assuming that you need expensive new speakers to keep up with your s... | |
What to put between a Calypso a Mini Utopias? I'm running a pair of Micro Utopias, pretty similar specs I think, with a 50 watt Graaf stereo tube amp. Great speakers and super easy to drive, I would say try tubes if you can. | |
Check out www.yourmusic.com I agree guys, and I happy to say that I just got my first shipment in the mail today, shipped 1/31, in my mailbox 2/3. Not bad for just $5.99! | |
sealed 3-ways Look for used speakers from Hales, now out of business. Paul Hales was a strong proponent of sealed boxes and his speakers often go for absurdly low prices on here. Also I think that almost all of his models are three ways, do a search under Hales... | |
Best DAC for 1,000? There is a Timbre TT-1 dac on here right now for under $800. This is a fantastic dac that retailed for $4K. I used to own one and loved it, I only sold it to downsize to a one-box player. I can't imagine better sound at even twice the price. Check... | |
What Speakers Do Audio Insiders Own? I think that you'll find that most musicians have pretty crappy systems. So I wouldn't put too much stock in what they're listening to personally. That being said there are some lines of pro speakers that cross over into home audio that are excell... | |
LOOKING FOR CJMV50 SAME TYPE OF SOUND AMP, HELP I second the premiere 11a rec, I used to own one and it's an excellent amp. Robustly built with nice, warm, rich tube sound, married to excellent frequency extension. As the Brits say, a nice all 'rounder. | |
What's your profession? Age? Wholesale fine wine salesman and 36 years old. My system is worth about $20K. | |
Monitors secure on stands Absolutley, there are many alternate brands of "Tac", any of them would be fine. |
