| Upgrade from Quad 11L? Here is a suggestion for isolating your CD player on the same structure as your speakers. Operating under the assumption that vibration is bad, differentially affects your CD transport and digital components, and that the vibration is coming throu... | |
| Upgrade from Quad 11L? Try putting a dot of Bluetack under each corner of your speakers where they sit on the stand to provide a bit of isolation from you electronics. | |
| Upgrade from Quad 11L? Agree with Bob about working with the room, especially placement. Have to disagree about cables, at least until you have basic good quality throughout, and this does not need to coast an arm or a leg if you investigate my suggestions above. | |
| NAD C355BEE Owners - Advice Needed The NAD "jumpers" look like a little plastic bar or plate on the back of the amp. Pretty nondescript, don't look at all like wires. Maybe they were confused. | |
| Great speakers for a small room The Spender SA and Harbeth's small P3ESR are both sealed cabinets as well. Check them out. | |
| Cambridge Audio 640C v.2: is it reliable? I think these are for early runs of the v1 640. I have owned both the 640C v1 and the v2 (for latter for three years) without trouble so far. Anecdotal and YMMV, but I have seen few complaints reported on the Internet since the v2 was released in ... | |

| Great speakers for a small room Did you try the new Spender SA or Harbeth 7ES-3? | |
| Best speaker value between $1800-$2100 Hawks are nice but fussier about power. I might suggest the Totem Sttaf as more flexible and in this price range new. | |
| best solid state integrated to match with B&W 685s OK, what Bob said. Sorry for confusing the matter. | |
| Is the B&W 600 series a good value? Excellent. Please post your results with this combination. | |
| Is the B&W 600 series a good value? If you are drawn to the 805's, I would get them. Very little risk on your part at that price.I like the Decco and have heard it power some nice Vienna Acoustics floor standers to moderate volumes without losing control. But I have heard similar am... | |
| best solid state integrated to match with B&W 685s I think Bob is saying that you would have a set of pre-amplified RCA jacks out of the back of the integrated, and that you would connect those to your amplified subwoofer's RCA inputs. You would do a one-time balancing of volume levels between the... | |
| Is the B&W 600 series a good value? 805N is a very good speaker - "S" version is even better. They are beautiful to look at but need a strong amp and very clean source to sound their best - you will suffer upgrade-itis, or just suffer, if using with lo-fi electronics. Great upgrade ... |
