| Sonus Faber and Haydn Grand IMO Haydn's image better and with the right power amp (250 Watts). The Haydn's were used in my previous two channel setup before I built my reference system.It's really tough to beat this speaker with the right pre and power amp. Also, the veeners... | |
| Monitors + sub or Floor standers? With your Ayre Acoustics MX-R and MBL preamp I would get a killer two-way monitor that images like crazy with ultra details and the ability for low extension.The right two-way monitor will allow you to setup on shortwall, place 10" from the back a... | |
| Lamm ML2.1 Tubes Thomas the new reissues New Sensor - Mullard ECC83/12AX7 and CV4024/12AT7 tubes in my MC275 amp provided another layer of details. However, my Black Sable - Mullards ECC83/12AX7 in my C500T preamp made the most sonic improvement...and they were th... | |
| KT88 Opinions Genalex Gold Lions are used in my MC275s run in mono. Data sheet says two valves in class AB1 gives a continuous output of up to 100W. I've used the following to retubed my MC275s and C500T:http://www.dougstubes.comhttp://www.musicdirect.comhttp:/... | |
| What is the best speaker for a smallish room? You betcha...Thiels would work and provide better low extension with 8 inch woofer. EAR is one of my favorite components and I think that would be a good match. | |
| What speakers to get? Focal or B&W Also depends on your power amp. Do you have solid state or tubes? | |

| Anyone compared Esoteric to EMM labs products Sound is very important JmCGROGAN2 but I also look for innovative dampening methods used in building the loudspeaker carcase or what new material like carbon nanotubes provides a stiffer tonearm for Turntables. All of this to say has this improved... | |
| Anyone compared Esoteric to EMM labs products I look for innovation design and Emm Labs and Esoteric both provides you with something new instead of just borrowing OEM parts. You have to determine is it the hardware or software that really makes a sonic difference. | |

| How do I Bi-Amp a McIntosh MC402 with a Tube Amp? When bi-amping, the two amplifiers' gain must "exactly" match. If your using identical amplifiers (MC402 tube and MC402 SS) the gain will match. But with the different amplifiers listed above, your at risk with gain mismatch that will likely produ... | |
| What's most important synergy wise??? What loudspeaker and cables are you using?Just reading about the BAT VK-52SE seems like one heck of a preamp. | |
| What's most important synergy wise??? C500T and MC275(s) with my Helicon minimonitors are great combination.You want details, lush mids, and layers and the C500T will deliver. I just replaced the stock tubes with Black Sable Mullards and really improved on more details once again. Fus... |
