| Please help ...integrated amp under $1200 bbarlow690, are you seriously comparing the Krell KAV 300i with the PS Audio Sprout...! I had the Sprout for one week and couldn't wait to send it back. I suppose cables and/or system "synergy" could have major impact but in my opinion they're not... | |
| Anyone with Benchmark ABH2? Not sure how to interpret "very pleased with it". Is it as great as the measurements seem to suggest? The reason I asked the original question was that to me this particular component is a great example to see how the measurements can actually sou... | |
| THE WALL---Why? Got a pair of these puppies from a friend who manages electrical supplies/equipment for local hospitals and were upgrading their equipment and getting rid of the old. Had to use a dolly to bring them into the house. They put out a constant 125 vol... | |
| Improving 2- Channel Soundstage Thanks. Sorry if I'm asking the obvious, but by front corners I assume you mean the corners behind the speakers not the corners near or on the sides of the listening position. By the way, I'm also having the same (soundstage) challenge with my Def... | |
| California Audio Labs – Icon Mk II CD Player - HDCD With the company no longer in business and the age of these players, do they have a good reliability history to be a viable purchase option? Would you buy one for $500 or its better to look for something new for that price? If so, what? I'm partic... | |
| Improving 2- Channel Soundstage Erik - Thanks. I've tried the speaker placement approach and did get some improvements and will play some more with room acoustics. I was just trying to see if there was a way to cheat Abdul get even deeper soundstage by using an HT receiver. Rega... | |
| Solid State preamp to mate with McIntosh MC-252 power amp That price range is the best sweet spot for a lot of different excellent preamps in the used market. I'm exactly in the same hunt except my amp is a Mac MC2200. Take your time as there are a lot of options out there. Good luck and keep us posted. | |
| Reliabilty, Keeping Equipment Powered on or off? I was told as rule of thumb the components that run hot - not just warm, should be left on at all times along with good line protection. I think this applies to most if not all power amps that operate in class A. Extreme temperature cycling puts a... | |
| Must speakers have certain volume to sound convincing ? I am neither a musician nor consider myself an expert in the field of acoustics but regardless, I think the question asked by the OP is completely pointless and his (or hers) views are narrow and being expressed just to start a more pointless argu... | |
| Explain to me dsd I was following this thread with interest but I'm now a little lost. So all this technical stuff aside and monthly fees notwithstanding, why wouldn't most people just subscribe to some lossless streaming service like Tidal and forego all this file... | |
| Atmasphere amps trustable? Clearly the troll that started this thread has gone underground where he belongs. I sure hope he stays there. | |
| Last CD player? Got it, thanks. I overlooked the idea of using the digital output on the CD player. | |
| Magnepan 1.7s in a 10x13' dedicated room? This may sound unresponsive but any good quality speaker paired with high quality components will sound much much better than mediocre speakers paired with mediocre components. The real question is whether or not these components are delivering th... | |
| Tube Amp vs Solid State Amp HELP Veroman, if I may ask, how long did the delivery take? It appears that the items are shipped from Asia. I'm quite a bit intrigued by their bookshelf speakers. Thanks. | |
| Last CD player? Sorry if they seem like a stupid question but how does one use a CD player as just a DAC? Is it just a matter of connecting the output of the CD player to an input of a DAC instead of the preamp or the CD player needs to have separate output from ... |
