| What tier do you consider Anthem integrated? @soix thanks. I sent seller a message to inquire about shipping as im not close to those. I should also see if i can audition the Nola 3 contender. Any idea what a fair price is for those? The look to be in good condition | |
| How does one pick in this situation? @soix the Salk veracity were with an (made in England?) Onix-125 integrated, and I suspect they were in a room too small and too close to the wall. (It was the seller's second system). They are probably awesome speakers, but I don't have a ton of... | |
| How does one pick in this situation? @llg98ljk could you give an example of what integrated amp you would pair for each one of those? Kurt curious how you'd match them each up. I was able to listen to the Salk, but not the Nola. The Salk had great clarity and low end extension from i... | |
| What tier do you consider Anthem integrated? @tennisdoc56 ? amps have the internals and build quality that you recommend? I'm all in favor of learning from others experience. Trying to go it alone is overwhelming. I recently watched a YouTube video by "TheAlphaAudio" channel that had me impr... | |
| What tier do you consider Anthem integrated? Also, nothing against Mac owners.. Saying it was mushy and veiled as an over -exaggeration but that particular system that I was referring to was old and not properly maintained. | |
| What tier do you consider Anthem integrated? @recklesskelly, I am unable to really audition much of anything that Best Buy doesn't sell. (Even then, half those guys can't get it to work). So, no, I haven't heard anthem or pass stuff, and even if I did, I wouldn't know what part was the amp a... | |
| What tier do you consider Anthem integrated? Also, I'm not attached to any of the pieces. I'll sell it all off or just replace it.. | |
| What tier do you consider Anthem integrated? @mesch, thanks. All that is correct except I may prefer a tower that wouldn't overpower the room *too much (ha ha) (instead of bookshelf. monitors). My thought Is that being in an apartment a subwoofrr to augment bookshelves may irritate the neig... | |
| What tier do you consider Anthem integrated? @sunshdw Wow! That setup is killer. Those speakers are gorgeous. Is the sound signature of those like higher end Dynaudio or Sonus Faber?(are those two brands considered warmer type speakers?) Or are they more lively forward and revealing/clinical... | |
| "But it sounds better at night...." Mind too, sounds better at night. The weird thing is, my system is entry level at best. Perhaps it just the lower noise floor of the world because everyone is asleep and there's less commotion and noise pollution in general. When the world quiets ... | |
| Building a synergistic system. What to buy? Great ideas and suggestions. Thanks guys! In room trial is appealing, yet even then, I'd like them both in the room at the same time to compare. That may prove difficult though. | |
| Building a synergistic system. What to buy? *2 black salad state= tube like solid state (Talk to text fail) | |
| Building a synergistic system. What to buy? @driver @mesch , thanks. Hard for me to blind the Fritz without hearing them, but those seem to be liked by people. Was the Cary amp you were thinking of the CAI solid state , or the SL80? I tube? I'd prefer to stay away from tubes and just get a ... | |
| What's your picks @mesch I am using a Yamaha integrated, but have been considering keeping my current Acoustic Energy towers while I upgrade to either a pass labs integrated, anthem str integrated (does this have arc?), or maybe a benchmark ahb2 with a dac 3hcg as ... | |
| What's your picks @johnto , my speakers have to be close to the front wall and 1 corner wall due to the floor plan and walkways/ doors. Great suggestion though. I'm so tempted to get those Salk and try to make them work, but I think I really need to resist forcing ... |
