| REL or Martin Logan? I have listened to both the REL and Martin Logan. Both are very fine speakers. In the end, it came down to this. The REL integrates with my Maggies in a way that the ML does not. Don't know how it would work in your setup. Only one way to find out... | |
| Anyone heard the new Krell S-1000 pre/pro Sorry Darrell. You are right. I confirmed with my Krell dealer. For now, I will stick with my Crystallio and HTS 7.1 | |
| ARC Ref3 Bal-SE button..what for? Thanks for clarifying. I was wondering about that as well. | |
| Old E-V cheapos The name of the company was Warehouse Sound. Don't recall the name of the speakers, but I remember buying some too. | |
| More power or better quality power? I recently traded more power (ARC VT200 200 wpc) for better quality power (ARC Ref 110 100 wpc). And I couldn't be happier. | |
| Linn Upgrades I did order the new Trampolin as well. | |
| Linn Upgrades I have my order in. I'll be reporting in on my "Pimped Out Linn LP 12" in early to mid March. Must be something. He's flying in from Texas to set it up. Stay tuned. | |
| WAF - Wife Acceptance Factor Viridian, perhaps you should advertise them as Ted Nugent specials - (viz. Cat Scratch Fever)As to everyone else who posted, thank you. I haven't had this much fun in a long while. The lesson to be learned is that a little consideration goes a lon... | |

With a Velodyne 1500 subwoofer, a pair of Thiel CS 2.2's, as well as a pair Thiel CS 3.6's. They al... | |
| You might be an audiophile if... Your dealer offers to fly in from Texas to do that turntable upgrade. | |
| Linn Upgrades Spoke with my Linn dealer today. He just got back from CES. Update on pricing. The prices quoted earlier were a bit high. The Keel will come in at $3,000, the Ekos SE, $5,000.Still high. But not quite as bad as previously thought. I will, of cours... | |
| Akiva or Titan Thanks to all who responded for the good information.I do have the Ref phono set to the high gain setting.I have considered using a step up transformer, but I am concerned about introducing distortion.I checked with my dealer. The trade in for an ... | |
| Linn Upgrades Thanks Palasar. I checked out the sites you refer to. I found out that the projected price for the Keel is $5,400 and for the Ekos SE is $7,600. I thought that Linn prices were high before, but this is ridiculous. | |
| Any thoughts on Krell I am a Krell fan, but I would never buy it new for the reasons you mention. Being able to buy a used piece in good condition at a bargain is positive, not a negative to me. But then, I don't necessarily need the latest and greatest, just something... | |
| Quads - Just a couple of questions Actually, I'm thinking of pairing the Quads with an Audio Research Ref 110. |
