| Paradigm Studio 60 v5 somewhat boomy Are they more boomy sounding than other speakers you have had in the same position in your listening room using the same electronics? With quality speakers like that, boominess is usually caused by an interaction with your room and/or floor, and t... | |
| What's the best system in the world? Very funny first response.Kind of difficult to say, but here are some others:http://www.hometone.org/entry/would-you-spend-2000000-for-the-lavish-audio-visual-treat/http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://cdn.most-expensive.net/wp-content/up... | |
| Pre and power amp for Vandersteen 3A Signature? How about the Naim SUPERNAIT or NAC 282 preamplifier/NAP 250 power amplifier if PRAT is your main concern? I think this would be an excellent combination with the 3's. | |
| LP Cleaning brush After initial cleaning, I am using Hunt E.D.A. Mark 6 brush for regular surface care. So far so good. | |
| How much budget for bass? Another way to look at it, realistic Bass is difficult to reproduce. There is a minimum entry fee to get to bass that isn't colored, mushy or just one-note thudding, and that threshold doesn't occur in my opinion until around $500 to $800. Above t... | |
| Harbeth Compact 7ES-3 for music / HT use...? These are VERY musical speakers. I think dialog would be adequate to very good, breaking glass and cracking submarine hulls are probably better presented by large boxes with big woofers and metal tweeters | |

| Decent moderate priced speaker for large room Get a really big pair of Klipsch or Polk floorstanders.

| New MH PH25.2 Headphone Amp as tube buffer? Helpful, thanks. Anybody heard this thing yet? | |
| AT150MLX cart + Cambridge Audio 640P Phono Stage Nice review Johnnyb. I am looking at replacing the Grado Prestige Blue on my Thorens TD150 MkII, and am considering the AT150MLX (sticking with everything "150" - HA!). I am thinking these would be a really good match.Also good to read your discus... | |
| amp/preamp to complement Vienna Acoustics? Hmmm, Bel Canto, interesting - think it might sound great. My friend has the beethoven grands and a Primare integrated, I think it is the A31. Really wonderful combination. Primare delivers a ton of current... And weights a ton. | |
| Separates vs. Integrated What is speaker budget, room size and listening preferences? | |
| Separates vs. Integrated Agree with much of what has been said above. Integrateds will provide the biggest kick per buck. Here are some of my favorites between $1-2K, (but previously offered advice on the importance of amp and speaker matching should be considered in any ... | |
