| Edge M8M vs NuForce Just wanted to congratulate dbtrucks on a most informative, balanced and thoughtful answer to OP's question. These are rare enough to warrant recognition. | |
| Zu on Zu Stylinlp_38: I traded out of Usher 8871 into Zu Druid last year. The 8871 is at a considerably higher price point in the Usher lineup than the 6371.It took me several weeks to understand the Zu sound, but once I did, it was very similar to what Ph... | |
| Repairs in Atlanta area? Modular Electronics in Roswell in the northside. A very well known dealer here on Audiogon uses him regularly. | |
| Intergrated Amp with VR4jrs You did not want tube recommendations, but so far, out of the preceding 7 responses, six have said tubes. Now make that 7 out of 8.There are some people who absolutely will not mess with tubes due to the hassle/heat/replacement, etc. I was one of ... | |
| Running Two REL Subs off One Amp - Possible? I use a REL and have been thinking of perhaps adding another, not so much for bass as for balance. I am using the Neutrik connector (I think this is called high-level connection?) in which the SW draws nothing but the faintest signal from the amp.... | |
| Blue Circle BC3 vs BC21.1 Owned both, upgraded from 21.1 to Galatea. Improvement across the board, most noticeable of which was refinement. Gilbert will probably tell you the same thing.Galatea was like buttah; best pre I've owned, and the last one. Gave up the pre habit t... | |
| Top resale value speakers Keithr, while you have a point, it is rare or never that resale value considers inflation. Auto leases (residual values), real estate tax computation, etc are not affected by inflation indexing. Maybe in theory they ought to be, but for whatever r... | |
| Top resale value speakers It is impossible to know the various discounts available on all speaker brands but it is well known that Magnepan does not discount much at all, whether due to low margin to begin with or factory control, I am not sure. But I think this factor has... | |
| Another Dealer sets the Bar LOW PaulBurke, the experience you had with the SimAudio people (not the dealer) reflects very closely something I went through with the AudioAero NorthAm distributor. And, as was your reaction, I will never touch anything from those guys.I have also e... | |
| Magnepan lover, which one do you choose? My experience with the ribbon in the 3.6 was that it required the best equipment in front of it. A $4K amp was not good enough (but I was still learning in those days). If budget for the other gear is a factor then I think the QR would be more for... | |
| Zu Definition, AG Duos orCoincident Total Victory? My Druids began life in my home with a PS Audio combo, PCA-2 and HCA-2. I understand the HCA-2 is one of the amps in the Zu boys' stable. While I like the amp very much as a value for money, I felt it did not do the Druids justice, and have since ... | |
| Compare: Salk Sound, Silverline, Tyler, Zu I have had the Druids now for six months and would like to add my 2c to the conversation. I am coming out of Usher 8871, which can lay claim to be being among the class leaders in looks, glorious 3/4" thick real wood cabinetry polished so the seam... | |
| Nice looking - for living room? IMO the Manley Stingray is a stunner. It is not to everyone's taste so be sure to show it to her first. But everyone who has visited my home, even the non-audio folks, have spent time admiring and oohing and aahing over it. It is unique without be... | |
| Squeezebox Ecruz, I believe we have traded posts before. I may be selling my wired SB1 just to go wireless SB3. I have an ad on AudioCircle if you are interested. Agree that this is very nice, and I am using the Behringer also. | |
| Behringer DEQ2496 HELP Thanks guys! The Behringer is awesome but not nearly as much so as this group. I ran AEQ (or was it Room Corr? question follows). The resulting curve, after I boosted <100 a little, was like a crooked smile. I described it to my friend on the p... |
