| Just got ruined by a pair of Treo CTs "As for driving them, they are very very easy to drive. Not a difficult load at all."Any other 85dB/2.83v/1m speaker I've owned, even at 8ohms (vs. the Treo 6ohms) required solid power to sound good. These must be an exception. | |
| Just got ruined by a pair of Treo CTs Just keep in mind they probably had $$$$ electronics feeding those 85dB @ 6 ohm puppies so YMMV depending on what you have at home. But still they'll spoil your ears no matter what. I had a similar experience with Quattro CT at a friends's home an... | |
| KEFLS50 Wireless - Possible to plug Turntable *and CD Player into Single AUX Input ??? You can use a simple passive box like a Schiit Sys that allows for switching between two analog inputs.

| Which of these 3 simular streamers do I select - help! I wouldn't worry too much about the wireless vs. wired connection unless you already have access issues using your mobile devices around the vicinity were you'll be locating your streamer.

| Match Amp w/Tekton Design Lore "They do drive them but I can turn volume ALL the way up and still could go louder."I have no personal experience with Lore but given their spec of 98dB/1w/1m @ 8 ohms, you should be able to drive them very loud, e.g., 98dB, with only a handful ... | |

| Removing spikes... Now my speakers sing "Find all the things wrong with that statement."Okay, I'll bite...I think they are both saying the same thing - they are absorbing the cabinet vibrations by adding the damping material... | |
| Which of these 3 simular streamers do I select - help! Given that you have a good DAC, you may want to try a Chromecast Audio just to start your wireless streaming experience. For a $35 investment you will be pleasantly surprised. I compared it with my Bluesound Node2 and for regular CD quality non-MQ... | |
| Running DCS Vivladi DIRECT? "The continued observations of "experts" who based only on specs and their biases know what other users systems sound like and which is obviously "best" is one of the mysteries of on line forums such as AudioGon"Well said. Indeed a mystery... | |
| Floor standing speaker isolation advice needed. A buddy of mine has his 80 lbs. speakers on a ceramic tile over half a dozen racquetballs on a floor similar to yours and it works for him. Trust your ears.... | |
| Removing spikes... Now my speakers sing Too many variables in play to recommend a specific approach. The design of the speakers - port in the bottom/front/rear, weight, type of the floor (what's right below the speaker, next layer, etc.), height of the rug, etc., etc. What works for me ... | |
