Subwoofers: Inexpensive Hsu vs REL One area that HSU is able to save money is the quality of construction. REL subwoofers are furniture grade fit and finish, while the HSU somewhat lags behind in this area. But like I stated, it is a functional, cost saving move. If you were to bui... | |
Who is the Youngest Audiogoner?? I was 25 when I first became a member a couple years ago. | |
Best amp for ThielCS6. The Classe as recommended to me by Theil himself for my 2.3's. | |
Speakers 2K- 3K range used or new Wow, in this price range you have literally hundreds of choices. Personally I would take Theil 2.3's over the B&W's and Aerial's. Tough call though.......so many to choose from. | |
$1,000 - What amp? I am a big fan of the Conrad Johnson MF-2250. Used it can be had for right at $1000 and has all the qualities you require above. | |
Best amp for 5k used? SS or Tube Rowland amps are about as good as you'll find and for $5K you should be able to find a good one. I would also like to suggest a Plinius SA-250MKIII. Please trust me when I say that this amp has no sonic shortfalls, looks great, pure class A (250wp... | |
EAD PM 2000 or Theta Dread? Another vote for keeping the PM2000. I haven't heard the SimAudio but I have heard TONS of 2 channel amps in the $3-4000 range that don't sound as good as the PM2000 for music. | |
SUBWOOFER FOR MUSIC The MX-1 is a real nice amp. Good match with the Studio 100's. You may notice a slightly warmer sound and deeper low-end with an Aragon 8008BB. You may also want to consider bi-wiring your speakers too. The extra guage of cable may yield some deep... | |
Best amp to replace my Classe CA-100 Boy, Abecollins nailed it. I guess there is no "best", please forgive me. I have owned probably over 50 different models of amplifier and the one that is now in my reference system is a unit comprised of a Plinius SA100MKIII and Plinius SA250MKIII... | |
SUBWOOFER FOR MUSIC Aram....help us a bit, what does your system consist of (electronics)??? Possibly this info may help out too. | |
Best amp to replace my Classe CA-100 Easy, easy, easy....Plinius SA100MKIII. Hands down the best in the "used" $2000 range, but i know there are a ton of choices to consider so check all of them out. | |
Denon DVD-5000 or Pioneer Elite DV-09 ???? The Pioneer is a fine piece but you can get better for the same amount for what they go for. the Denon is JUNK....as are most all Denon DVD players. Unreliable, noisy and underperforming. Consider a Toshiba SD-9200 or the 9000ES Sony. Both are rea... | |
SUBWOOFER FOR MUSIC Aram....with the bass response of your Studio 100's, unless you listen to quite a bit of organ music or something along those lines, your mains already have PLENTY adequate bass response for vitrtually ALL types of music. Possibly you may want to ... | |
What companies, out of Business, did you LOVE??? Angstrom with their 200DTS/205 combo is still the best 5.1 digital surround processor I have heard. Too bad Mike M. couldn't keep them going. I love mine but hope and pray everytime I turn it on something doesn't foul up with it. | |
New Analog system. where to start? Thanks for all the suggestions guys! |
